What are the various applications of these capacitors "Ceramic,Electrolytic and Tantalum" capacitors
In most cases, you can use them interchangeably. There are key parameters that differ between those caps. Ceramic caps have low impedance, low volumetric capacitance, long operation life. Electrolytic caps have rather high impedance based on higher ESR, good volumetric capacitance, short operation life. Tantalum caps are somewhere in between.
