Molded tantalum, 100 µF, 20 V — what this cap delivers
The 2917 (7343 Metric) case size is a common footprint for bulk decoupling on power rails up to 12 V, where the 20 V rating provides a 67% derating margin — a standard practice for tantalum reliability. With an ESR of 500 mOhm at 100 kHz, this part handles moderate ripple currents typical of DC-DC converter output filters.
