The reliability of the solid tantalum capacitor is heavily influenced by environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, shock, vibration, mechanical stresses, and electric stresses, including applied voltage, current, ripple current, transient current and voltage, and frequency. When using solid tantalum capacitors, therefore, provide enough margin so that the reliability of the capacitors is maintained. Voltage and temperature are important parameters when estimating the reliability.
