Product details

Bulk decoupling with a known ESR ceiling

The TAJC686K010H is a 68 µF molded tantalum capacitor from the TAJ series, rated at 10 V with a ±10% tolerance and a 1.3 Ohm ESR. That ESR number is the key derating parameter: at the rated ripple current, the self-heating from the ESR adds to the ambient temperature, so the actual ripple current capability is limited by the 125°C maximum operating temperature. For a 10 V rail, the 1.3 Ohm ESR means the capacitor can handle about 270 mA RMS ripple before the internal temperature rise pushes past the derating curve — a useful sanity check when sizing the output filter of a buck converter or the decoupling on a high-current FPGA core rail.

The molded case (Type Molded) provides mechanical stability across the thermal cycle, and the surface-mount 2312 (6032 Metric) footprint is a standard pad layout for reflow assembly.

Frequently asked questions

Is TAJC686K010H equivalent to T491C686K010AT?

Both are 68 µF, 10 V, ±10% tantalum capacitors in the C case (6032 Metric) with a similar ESR range. The T491 series from KEMET is a functional equivalent in the same footprint and voltage rating. The main difference is the manufacturer and the specific ESR tolerance — verify the ripple current requirement against the T491 datasheet's ESR spec before substituting.
