At 100 kHz, this ESR limits the ripple current capability and self-heating; for a 10 µF capacitor on a 500 kHz buck converter output, the impedance at frequency is dominated by this ESR, not the capacitive reactance. The 50 V rating provides a 2:1 derating margin on a 25 V rail, which is standard practice for tantalum capacitors to avoid surge failures. On a 48 V telecom bus, the margin is tighter but still within the recommended 80% derating guideline for molded tantalum types. The ±10% tolerance is typical for tantalum electrolytics and is adequate for decoupling and filtering applications where the absolute capacitance value is not critical. For timing circuits, a tighter tolerance or a different dielectric would be required. As a molded tantalum capacitor in a standard 2917 footprint, it is a drop-in replacement for many other TPS-series parts with the same case code. The 250 mOhm ESR and 50 V rating are the distinguishing parameters that define this specific variant.","metaTitle":"KYOCERA AVX TPSE106K050R0250 TPS Series, 10 µF, 50 V","metaDescription":"TPSE106K050R0250 molded tantalum capacitor, 10 µF, 50 V, ±10%, 250 mOhm ESR, 2917 case.

This is the dominant impedance at high frequency and determines the ripple current rating and self-heating. A lower ESR means less power dissipation for a given ripple current, which is critical in power-supply output filtering."},{"question":"What voltage derating should I apply for TPSE106K050R0250?","answer":"Industry practice for molded tantalum capacitors is to derate to 50-80% of the rated voltage.
