Tantalum capacitors can be used as a non-polar unit if two capacitors are connected "BACK-TO-BACK" when reverse voltage is applied at a more than permissible value, or in a purely AC circuit. The two capacitors should both be of the same rated voltage and capacitance tolerance, and they should both be twice the required capacitance value.
Surface mount tantalum capacitors, like all electronic components, impose restrictions on pad (or land) design and solder processing to achieve minimum defects. Proper pad designs and the reasons behind those designs are discussed and solder process constraints are outlined for wave and reflow soldering.
A: Attachment with a soldering iron is not recommended due to the difficulty of controlling temperature and time of heating. If there is a need for hand soldering, please follow recommendations as described in Vishay technical note TN-0004: Q: Why are voltage and temperature derating needed for tantalum capacitors?
When tantalum capacitors are reflow soldered, interaction between the molten solder surface tension, component metallization and substrate pad determine the magnitude of defect and counter defect generating forces. Minimum soldering defects requires maximum counter forces and minimum defect generating forces.
Tantalum capacitor manufacturers generally recommend that a minimum of 60 % voltage derating should be applied (if not specified differently in a product datasheet). However, specific derating rules need to be determined based upon the application of the tantalum capacitor in the circuit.
A: All tantalum capacitors have low resistance paths through the dielectric which can self-heal, repairing the potential fault site. Because of the cathode manganese dioxide construction, an inherent feature of tantalum capacitors is the ability of the capacitors to self-heal dielectric defects.
A: Tantalum capacitors require voltage derating in order to operate properly within a customer's application. The voltage on the capacitor is equal to the sum of the DC and AC voltages. This sum should never exceed the category voltage.

The solder underneath the chip is not at fault. Note: You will need advanced soldering skills and equipment to be able to pull off this repair. This only applies to the Phat and the Slim models of the PS3. The Super Slim already has Tantalum capacitors and cannot be Dellided as the IHS is soldered on. Replacing the paste is more than enough to ...

Use a soldering iron with sufficient wattage and a regulated temperature. The adequacy of the soldering iron can be judged by the amount of time needed to reflow the solder. Beginning at 650 °F (343 °C), adjust the temperature so that the solder reflows within 1.5 s to 3 s.
I did some quick research already and here''s summary of what I''ve found so far Why and when to use tantalum capacitors? Tantalum is used to create small sized capacitors with ''large'' capacitance. Compared to other materials the oxide layer can be quite thin. So for all applications where pcb space is limited (e.g. mobile phones) they are the to go to type of …
