TAJC156K020ANJ is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TAJ series, rated 15 µF at 20 V with ±10% tolerance — a standard value for bulk decoupling and hold-up on 12 V and 5 V rails.
Case code C means the 6.00 mm x 3.20 mm footprint with a seated height of 2.80 mm max. The molded body has clear polarity marking — the banded end is the anode.
The TAJ series is listed with General Purpose features and is supplied on Tape & Reel. KYOCERA AVX tantalum caps in this series are RoHS compliant and lead-free per standard production, but the evidence does not carry a specific RoHS certificate code for this order code. Confirm with the datasheet or request a certificate of compliance at RFQ.
Both are 15 µF, 20 V, ±10%, case code C molded tantalum caps. The T491 series from KEMET is a common cross-shop candidate. Pin-to-pin and footprint are identical — same 6.00 mm x 3.20 mm body, same polarity marking convention. The ESR and temperature range should be compared at your operating conditions before committing a BOM swap.
