Product details

Molded tantalum, 10 µF at 16 V — B-case footprint

The B case measures 3.50 mm x 2.80 mm with a seated height of 2.10 mm, fitting standard 1411 (3528 Metric) or 1210 footprints. ESR is specified at 2.8 Ohm — typical for a standard tantalum in this case size. That ESR limits ripple current handling and makes this part better suited for bulk storage or decoupling on lower-frequency rails than for high-ripple switching supplies.

Surface-mount assembly — 1411 / 1210 pad layout

The B-case footprint matches standard 1411 (3528 Metric) or 1210 land patterns — confirm the pad geometry against your PCB layout, particularly the anode (+) mark orientation, as tantalum caps are polarity-sensitive.

Frequently asked questions

How can I order TAJB106M016HNJ or check availability?

The TAJB106M016HNJ is an active KYOCERA AVX part. We source it through independent distribution and quote to order against your BOM line quantity.

Is TAJB106M016HNJ polarity sensitive?

Yes, this is a molded tantalum capacitor and is polarity-sensitive. The anode (+) is marked on the body. Reverse voltage can cause catastrophic failure (short circuit). Confirm orientation during PCB layout and assembly.

What is the ESR of TAJB106M016HNJ?

The equivalent series resistance (ESR) is 2.8 Ohm at 25°C and 100 kHz typical. This value is higher than low-ESR tantalum or polymer capacitors, so the part is better suited for bulk decoupling than for high-ripple or high-frequency filtering.

Can TAJB106M016HNJ be replaced with a ceramic capacitor?

Tantalum also has a different failure mode (short) vs. MLCC (crack/short). A direct swap is not guaranteed without bench verification.
