10 µF, 16 V, 3 Ohm ESR — bulk decoupling for 12 V rails
The 3 Ohm ESR is moderate for this capacitance value — it limits ripple current to roughly 230 mA RMS at 100 kHz before self-heating becomes a concern, so this part is better suited for bulk decoupling or output filtering in low-to-moderate ripple applications rather than high-frequency switching converters.
