The TAJE227M016SNJ: This is a KYOCERA AVX TAJ series molded tantalum capacitor, 220 µF ±20% at 16 V, in the E case code (2917 / 7343 Metric footprint).
At 125°C the rated life is 2000 hours — derating the applied voltage extends that window.
This part is a standard TAJ series catalog item, so it is routinely available through independent distribution.
The ESR is 500 mOhm at 100 kHz. This is the equivalent series resistance at that frequency — it governs the AC ripple current that the capacitor can handle before self-heating accelerates wear-out.
Yes — tantalum capacitors are polarized. The positive terminal is marked on the molded body with a stripe or band. Reversing the voltage will cause catastrophic failure (shorts, venting, fire). Confirm the orientation against the PCB silkscreen before reflow.
