3.3 µF, 16 V, AEC-Q200 — the automotive-grade tantalum for tight board spots
The TAJA335K016TNJ is a molded tantalum capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX TAJ series, rated at 3.3 µF with ±10% tolerance and 16 V DC. The 5 ohm ESR at 100 kHz sets the ripple current ceiling; for a 3.3 µF output filter on a 16 V rail, the self-heating from ripple current stays within the 2000-hour lifetime at 125°C when the RMS current is kept below the datasheet limit.
