Anomalous Transients in Chip Polymer Tantalum Capacitors
source: AS&D, Inc. for NASA GSFC; ESA SPCD 2018 Symposium EPCI e-symposium library article Contrary to MnO2 tantalum capacitors, transient processes in polymer tantalum capacitors after voltage application might result in anomalously high, ampere-level currents when a capacitor might appear as a short circuit for a time that is much greater than a transient time in MnO2 capacitors. In this work, conditions that cause...
