TAJA225M010TNJ is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TAJ series, rated 2.2 µF at 10 V with ±20% tolerance. The 1206 (3216 Metric) package and surface-mount termination suit automated assembly on standard FR-4 boards.
ESR, lifetime, and ripple-current headroom
ESR is specified at 7 Ohm @ 100 kHz — a relatively high figure for a 2.2 µF capacitor. This limits the ripple-current capability and means the voltage ripple on a buck-converter output will be dominated by ESR, not capacitance. For a 100 mA pk-pk ripple, expect roughly 700 mV of output ripple from the ESR alone. Endurance is 2000 hours at 125°C. If the ambient at the capacitor body stays below 85°C, the useful life extends well beyond the rated hours. Voltage derating to 50-60% of rated 10 V is good practice for tantalum reliability in any continuous-duty application.
Sourced to order against the BOM line; availability confirmed at RFQ. RoHS compliance is standard for current KYOCERA AVX TAJ-series production. The part ships on tape and reel for pick-and-place.
