Product details

Molded tantalum, 1 µF at 16 V — what it fits

The TAJA105K016B: This is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TAJ series, 1 µF ±10% capacitance with a 16 V DC rating in a standard 1206 (3216 Metric) surface-mount package. The molded construction gives consistent mechanical dimensions and good moisture resistance for general-purpose board-level decoupling, filtering, or timing circuits.

Active production — ordering and lifecycle

The TAJ series is a broad molded-tantalum family; the TAJA105K016B is the 1 µF / 16 V / size A variant. No direct pin-compatible cross from another manufacturer is listed, but any molded tantalum in the same case code, voltage, and capacitance will fit the same footprint — confirm the derating guidelines for your application.

Package and footprint — 1206 case

1206 case (3.20 mm x 1.60 mm footprint, 1.80 mm seated height) — a common two-terminal SMD footprint that reflows on standard FR-4 with no special pad geometry. The size code A matches the EIA 1206 outline. Supplied on Tape & Reel (TR), compatible with automated pick-and-place assembly. The molded body is polarity-marked; reverse-voltage insertion is a field failure mode for tantalum capacitors.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between TAJA105K016B and TAJA105K016R?

The suffix 'B' vs 'R' typically indicates packaging or termination finish variation within the TAJ series. Both share the same 1 µF / 16 V / 1206 / ±10% ratings. Confirm the specific termination material (e.g., tin/lead vs RoHS-compliant) in the datasheet for your assembly process.

Where can I find the datasheet for TAJA105K016B?

The datasheet is available from KYOCERA AVX under the TAJ series. It covers the full capacitance and voltage range for the molded tantalum family, including derating curves, ESR vs frequency, and recommended reflow profile.
