Tantalum capacitorA tantalum electrolytic capacitor is an electrolytic capacitor, a passive component of electronic circuits. It consists of a pellet of porous tantalum metal as an anode, covered by an insulating oxide layer that forms the dielectric, surrounded by liquid or solid electrolyte as a cathode. Because of its very thin and relatively high permittivity dielectric layer, the tantalum capacitor distinguishes itself from other conventional and electrolytic capacitors in having high capacitance per volume (high volumetric efficiency) and lower weight.
Courant d'obscuritéIn physics and in electronic engineering, dark current is the relatively small electric current that flows through photosensitive devices such as a photomultiplier tube, photodiode, or charge-coupled device even when no photons enter the device; it consists of the charges generated in the detector when no outside radiation is entering the detector. It is referred to as reverse bias leakage current in non-optical devices and is present in all diodes.
Courant alternatifLe courant alternatif (qui peut être abrégé par CA) est un courant électrique périodique qui change de sens deux fois par période et qui transporte des quantités d'électricité alternativement égales dans un sens et dans l'autre. Un courant alternatif a donc une composante continue (valeur moyenne) nulle. Un courant alternatif est caractérisé par sa fréquence, mesurée en hertz (Hz). La fréquence correspond au nombre de périodes du signal en une seconde (une oscillation = une période).
LED street lightAn LED street light or road light is an integrated light-emitting diode (LED) light fixture that is used for street lighting. An LED street light is an integrated light that uses light emitting diodes (LED) as its light source. These are considered integrated lights because, in most cases, the luminaire and the fixture are not separate parts. In manufacturing, the LED light cluster is sealed on a panel and then assembled to the LED panel with a heat sink to become an integrated lighting fixture.
Diode laserUne diode laser est un composant opto-électronique à base de matériaux semi-conducteurs. Elle émet de la lumière monochromatique cohérente (une puissance optique) destinée, entre autres, à transporter un signal contenant des informations sur de longues distances (dans le cas d'un système de télécommunications) ou à apporter de l'énergie lumineuse pour le pompage de certains lasers (lasers à fibre, laser DPSS) et amplificateurs optiques (OFA, Optical Fiber Amplifier).
Aluminum electrolytic capacitorAluminum electrolytic capacitors are polarized electrolytic capacitors whose anode electrode (+) is made of a pure aluminum foil with an etched surface. The aluminum forms a very thin insulating layer of aluminum oxide by anodization that acts as the dielectric of the capacitor. A non-solid electrolyte covers the rough surface of the oxide layer, serving in principle as the second electrode (cathode) (-) of the capacitor. A second aluminum foil called “cathode foil” contacts the electrolyte and serves as the electrical connection to the negative terminal of the capacitor.
Dommage (droit)En droit, le dommage est la conséquence patrimoniale et extra-patrimoniale d’une atteinte aux biens de la personne ou à la personne elle-même. Il est très proche d’une autre notion qui est le préjudice mais cette différence est subtile et doctrinale. Le dommage c’est l’atteinte tandis que le préjudice est la conséquence de cette atteinte. Le concept de dommage est surtout présent en droit de la responsabilité civile où il permet d'établir le montant d'indemnisation auquel aura droit la victime d'une faute.

Polymer capacitorA polymer capacitor, or more accurately a polymer electrolytic capacitor, is an electrolytic capacitor (e-cap) with a solid conductive polymer electrolyte. There are four different types: Polymer tantalum electrolytic capacitor (Polymer Ta-e-cap) Polymer aluminium electrolytic capacitor (Polymer Al-e-cap) Hybrid polymer capacitor (Hybrid polymer Al-e-cap) Polymer niobium electrolytic capacitors Polymer Ta-e-caps are available in rectangular surface-mounted device (SMD) chip style.
Electrolytic capacitorAn electrolytic capacitor is a polarized capacitor whose anode or positive plate is made of a metal that forms an insulating oxide layer through anodization. This oxide layer acts as the dielectric of the capacitor. A solid, liquid, or gel electrolyte covers the surface of this oxide layer, serving as the cathode or negative plate of the capacitor. Because of their very thin dielectric oxide layer and enlarged anode surface, electrolytic capacitors have a much higher capacitance-voltage (CV) product per unit volume than ceramic capacitors or film capacitors, and so can have large capacitance values.
