Product details

15 µF 20 V molded tantalum for bulk decoupling

In a 20 V rail filter, this ESR keeps the capacitor's core temperature rise within the part's derating curve when the ripple current stays below the datasheet limit.

Surface-mount footprint and layout fit

The 2312 (6032 Metric) case measures 6.00 mm x 3.20 mm with a 2.80 mm seated height. The molded body and standard SMT termination suit reflow soldering on a two-layer or multilayer PCB. The size code C footprint is shared across the TAJ series, so a single land pattern covers multiple capacitance values for BOM flexibility.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to TAJC156K020RNJ in the TAJ series?

Within the same TAJ series, a pin-compatible alternative would be any other 2312 (size code C) molded tantalum capacitor with the same 20 V rating. Capacitance and tolerance may differ — for example, a 10 µF or 22 µF variant — but the footprint and voltage class match. Confirm the capacitance and ESR requirements for your specific rail before substituting.

Can TAJC156K020RNJ be used for general purpose applications?

Yes, the TAJC156K020RNJ is explicitly listed with the Features attribute 'General Purpose'. It is suitable for bulk decoupling, filtering, and energy storage in power supply circuits, provided the 20 V rating and 1.7 Ohm ESR are within the design margin.
