The F380J686MSALZT: The 200 mOhm ESR at 100 kHz keeps ripple voltage low on a switching regulator output; paired with the 0805 footprint, it fits tight layout budgets.
Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C, this cap's lifetime is typical for a molded tantalum — running it at lower temperature with voltage derating can extend service life beyond the rated endurance.
68 µF capacitance, ±20% tolerance, 6.3 V rated voltage, 200 mOhm ESR at 100 kHz, operating temperature -55°C to 105°C, and a lifetime of 1000 hours at 85°C.
The F38 series is listed as General Purpose and is manufactured to be RoHS compliant and lead-free per KYOCERA AVX standard. Confirm with the latest datasheet for your specific date code.
Within the F38 series, other 0805 case size parts with the same 6.3 V rating but different capacitance values (e.g., 47 µF or 100 µF) are direct footprint alternatives. No pin-compatible issue since the package is a two-terminal capacitor.
