6.8 µF at 10 V — AEC-Q200 molded tantalum for automotive BOMs
The TAJA685K010TNJ: This is a KYOCERA AVX TAJ series molded tantalum capacitor, 6.8 µF ±10% tolerance, rated 10 V DC, in a 1206 (3216 Metric) surface-mount case. That ESR limits the AC ripple current to roughly 200-300 mA before self-heating becomes a concern — fine for decoupling a 3.3 V rail or filtering a low-power DC-DC output, but not for high-ripple power stages without derating.
1206 case — board-fit and temperature range
The 1206 (3216 Metric) footprint is a common size for automotive and industrial PCBs.
