Tantalum capacitor with bipolar capacitor ?

[bianchi77]

Guys,

Can I replace tantalum capacitor with bipolar capacitor ?
Thanks

 

[kam1787]

depends

some circuits need the particular traits of tantalum caps.

hi"
in majority of cases you can replace them,the main deference with bipolar electrolytic capacitors, that tantalum capacitors have a lower ESR ( Equivalent Serial Resistance).They are used mainly, in circuit that timing is very precise.

and lower leakage and more stable and ........................

yeah !!!lower leakage due to their lower ESR dude!

so you are saying the 2 parameters are equivalent or propotional? I THINK NOT, DUDE.

hi
can you take a look to this article
