Product details

What this TAJ-series molded tantalum does on the board

It is a general-purpose decoupling and filtering capacitor for power rails where low ESR and stable capacitance over temperature matter.

Temperature range and endurance — where this cap lives

The 125 °C rating means the capacitor's derating curve starts above 85 °C; at 105 °C ambient the voltage derating factor is typically 0.67×, so a 16 V part should see no more than ~10.7 V DC across it in that environment.

Package and footprint — Case C (2312 / 6032 Metric)

Housed in the manufacturer size code C package: 6.00 mm x 3.20 mm footprint, 2.80 mm seated height. The 2312 (6032 Metric) case is a common tantalum outline — the pad layout matches standard 2.54 mm pitch reflow profiles.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of TAJC226K016KNJ and why does it matter?

1 Ohm maximum at 100 kHz. This ESR value determines the ripple current the capacitor can handle without excessive self-heating and sets the output ripple amplitude in a switching regulator's filter cap.
