Molded tantalum, 1 µF, 16 V — BOM-fit notes
The TAJA105M016HNJ: This is a molded tantalum capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX TAJ series, with a capacitance of 1 µF, ±20% tolerance, and a rated voltage of 16 V. The 1206 (3216 Metric) surface-mount case is a common footprint for decoupling and filtering on power rails and signal lines where board space is constrained. The 11 Ohm ESR at 100 kHz sets the ripple current capability — for a 16 V rail, the self-heating under ripple is modest, but the ESR matters for output ripple voltage in a switching regulator or as a bulk cap on a low-impedance bus. Derate voltage by 20% for reliability on 12 V rails.
Temperature range and lifetime
Rated for -55 to 125 °C operating temperature, this capacitor suits industrial and automotive environments where the ambient may exceed 85 °C.
Availability confirmed at RFQ.
