Marking
Capacitor marking includes an anode (+) polarity band, capacitance in microfarads and the voltage rating. “A” case capacitors use a letter
code for the voltage and EIA capacitance code.
The Vishay identification marking is included if space permits. Vishay marking (“circled 2”) may show additives in the form of short lines,
depicting actual manufacturing facility. For A case capacitors discontinuation in polarity bar maybe used as actual manufacturing facility
designation. Capacitors rated at 6.3 V are marked 6 V. Uppercase letter “H” indicates lead (Pb)-free capacitors; lowercase letter “h”
indicates SnPb containing capacitors.
A manufacturing date code is marked on all capacitors. for details see FAQ: www.vishay.com/doc?40110.
Call the factory for further explanation.

Guide for Molded Tantalum Capacitors
INTRODUCTION
Tantalum electrolytic capacitors are the preferred choice in
applications where volumetric efficiency, stable electrical
parameters, high reliability, and long service life are primary
considerations. The stability and resistance to elevated
temperatures of the tantalum / tantalum oxide / manganese
dioxide system make solid tantalum capacitors an
appropriate choice for today's surface-mount assembly
technology.
Vishay Sprague has been a pioneer and leader in this field,
producing a large variety of tantalum capacitor types for
consumer, industrial, automotive, military, and aerospace
electronic applications.
Tantalum is not found in its pure state. Rather, it is
commonly found in a number of oxide minerals, often in
combination with Columbium ore. This combination is
known as “tantalite” when its contents are more than
one-half tantalum. Important sources of tantalite include
Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, and several African
countries. Synthetic tantalite concentrates produced from
tin slags in Thailand, Malaysia, and Brazil are also a
significant raw material for tantalum production.
Electronic applications, and particularly capacitors,
consume the largest share of world tantalum production.
Other important applications for tantalum include cutting
tools (tantalum carbide), high temperature super alloys,
chemical processing equipment, medical implants, and
military ordnance.
Vishay Sprague is a major user of tantalum materials in the
form of powder and wire for capacitor elements and rod and
sheet for high temperature vacuum processing.
THE BASICS OF TANTALUM CAPACITORS
Most metals form crystalline oxides which are
non-protecting, such as rust on iron or black oxide on
copper. A few metals form dense, stable, tightly adhering,
electrically insulating oxides. These are the so-called
“valve”metals and include titanium, zirconium, niobium,
tantalum, hafnium, and aluminum. Only a few of these
permit the accurate control of oxide thickness by
electrochemical means. Of these, the most valuable for the
electronics industry are aluminum and tantalum.
Capacitors are basic to all kinds of electrical equipment,
from radios and television sets to missile controls and
automobile ignitions. Their function is to store an electrical
charge for later use.
Capacitors consist of two conducting surfaces, usually
metal plates, whose function is to conduct electricity. They
are separated by an insulating material or dielectric. The
dielectric used in all tantalum electrolytic capacitors is
tantalum pentoxide.
Tantalum pentoxide compound possesses high-dielectric
strength and a high-dielectric constant. As capacitors are
being manufactured, a film of tantalum pentoxide is applied
to their electrodes by means of an electrolytic process. The
film is applied in various thicknesses and at various voltages
and although transparent to begin with, it takes on different
colors as light refracts through it. This coloring occurs on the
tantalum electrodes of all types of tantalum capacitors.
Revision: 08-Mar-2023
Rating for rating, tantalum capacitors tend to have as much
as three times better capacitance / volume efficiency than
aluminum electrolytic capacitors. An approximation of the
capacitance / volume efficiency of other types of capacitors
may be inferred from the following table, which shows the
dielectric constant ranges of the various materials used in
each type. Note that tantalum pentoxide has a dielectric
constant of 26, some three times greater than that of
aluminum oxide. This, in addition to the fact that extremely
thin films can be deposited during the electrolytic process
mentioned earlier, makes the tantalum capacitor extremely
efficient with respect to the number of microfarads available
per unit volume. The capacitance of any capacitor is
determined by the surface area of the two conducting
plates, the distance between the plates, and the dielectric
constant of the insulating material between the plates.

In the tantalum electrolytic capacitor, the distance between
the plates is very small since it is only the thickness of the
tantalum pentoxide film. As the dielectric constant of the
tantalum pentoxide is high, the capacitance of a tantalum
capacitor is high if the area of the plates is large:
C = eA
------t
where
C = capacitance
e = dielectric constant
A = surface area of the dielectric
t = thickness of the dielectric
Tantalum capacitors contain either liquid or solid
electrolytes. In solid electrolyte capacitors, a dry material
(manganese dioxide) forms the cathode plate. A tantalum
lead is embedded in or welded to the pellet, which is in turn
connected to a termination or lead wire. The drawings show
the construction details of the surface-mount types of
tantalum capacitors shown in this catalog.

SOLID ELECTROLYTE TANTALUM CAPACITORS
Solid electrolyte capacitors contain manganese dioxide,
which is formed on the tantalum pentoxide dielectric layer
by impregnating the pellet with a solution of manganous
nitrate. The pellet is then heated in an oven, and the
manganous nitrate is converted to manganese dioxide.
The pellet is next coated with graphite, followed by a layer
of metallic silver, which provides a conductive surface
between the pellet and the leadframe.
Molded Chip tantalum capacitor encases the element in
plastic resins, such as epoxy materials. The molding
compound has been selected to meet the requirements of
UL 94 V-0 and outgassing requirements of ASTM E-595.
After assembly, the capacitors are tested and inspected to
assure long life and reliability. It offers excellent reliability
and high stability for consumer and commercial electronics
with the added feature of low cost
Surface-mount designs of “solid tantalum” capacitors use
lead frames or lead frameless designs as shown in the
accompanying drawings.
TANTALUM CAPACITORS FOR ALL DESIGN
CONSIDERATIONS
Solid electrolyte designs are the least expensive for a given
rating and are used in many applications where their very
small size for a given unit of capacitance is of importance.
They will typically withstand up to about 10 % of the rated
DC working voltage in a reverse direction. Also important
are their good low temperature performance characteristics
and freedom from corrosive electrolytes.
Vishay Sprague patented the original solid electrolyte
capacitors and was the first to market them in 1956. Vishay
Sprague has the broadest line of tantalum capacitors and
has continued its position of leadership in this field. Data
sheets covering the various types and styles of Vishay
Sprague capacitors for consumer and entertainment
electronics, industry, and military applications are available
where detailed performance characteristics must be
specified.
