It works well as bulk decoupling on a 16 V rail where the AC ripple is low, but for high-frequency bypass or a switching converter output, a lower-ESR tantalum or MLCC would be a better call. The 1206 case (3.20 mm x 1.60 mm) and 1.80 mm seated height fit tight layouts, but the 3-ohm ESR means the part runs warmer under ripple than a low-ESR alternative. ## Active lifecycle — no LTB clock","metaTitle":"TAJA106M016HNJ KYOCERA AVX 10 µF 16 V Tantalum Cap - Active","metaDescription":"TAJA106M016HNJ is an active KYOCERA AVX TAJ series molded tantalum capacitor, 10 µF ±20%, 16 V, 1206 case, -55°C to 125°C, 2000 hrs at 125°C.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Specialty Capacitors"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"KYOCERA AVX","Type":"Molded","Series":"TAJ","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR)","Ratings":"-","Features":"General Purpose","Tolerance":"±20%","Capacitance":"10 µF","Failure Rate":"-","Lead Spacing":"-","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Package / Case":"1206 (3216 Metric)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage - Rated":"16 V","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Lifetime @ Temp.":"2000 Hrs @ 125°C","Size / Dimension":"0.126\\\" L x 0.063\\\" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)","Height - Seated (Max)":"0.071\\\" (1.80mm)","Operating Temperature":"-55°C~125°C","Manufacturer Size Code":"A","ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance)":"3Ohm @ 100kHz"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.3784","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icboms.com/ce09bb895bbc5407352e9a690f57411c.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icboms.com/api/mcp/products/TAJA106M016HNJ/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the ripple current rating of TAJA106M016HNJ?","answer":"The evidence does not list a ripple current rating.
