6.8 µF, 20 V, 2.5 Ohm ESR — the bulk decoupling cap
The TAJB685K020H: This is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TAJ series, rated 6.8 µF at 20 V with ±10% tolerance and a 2.5 Ohm ESR. The 2.5 Ohm ESR is the number that matters for ripple handling — a higher ESR means more self-heating under AC ripple, so this cap is better suited for bulk storage or bypass than for high-ripple output filtering.
That means it holds its capacitance and leakage within spec across avionics cold-soak and engine-bay heat — not every tantalum does.
