What the 35 V rating buys you on a 24 V rail
The TAJA104K035RNJ: Rated 35 V with a 0.1 µF capacitance, this size-A 1206 tantalum gives you 40 % derating margin on a 24 V bus — enough headroom to absorb 5 % transients without the cap going into avalanche. The 24 Ohm ESR means it's not a low-impedance bypass cap; use it as bulk decoupling or a timing element where the series resistance is part of the RC time constant.
Rated -55°C to 125°C — full military temperature range. This cap clears for avionics black boxes, downhole logging tools, and outdoor telecom cabinets where the ambient hits 85°C and the self-heating from ripple current adds another 20°C. The molded 1206 case reflows cleanly under a standard lead-free profile; no special bake-out needed below MSL 1.
