Tantalum and Niobium Capacitors | doEEEt
These capacitors utilize a tantalum anode and tantalum case but need a hybrid cathode made by depositing a material such as ruthenium or palladium on a small piece of tantalum foil. These large case-size wet tantalums reach capacitance values of over 72,000μF at 25V and are used in energy hold-up and pulse power applications.
