Molded tantalum, 33 µF at 35 V — bulk cap for tight spots
The 500 mOhm ESR at 100 kHz sets the ripple current capability and output voltage ripple; for a buck converter output filter, expect ripple current around 1.2 A RMS at 100 kHz, limited by the capacitor's self-heating. The 2917 (7343 Metric) case size is a standard footprint for high-capacitance tantalum chips — the 0.287" x 0.169" (7.30 mm x 4.30 mm) land pattern matches the EIA-7343-31 pad geometry.
Military temperature grade — avionics and downhole fit
Molded construction provides better mechanical stability and moisture resistance than dipped tantalum, important for conformal-coated assemblies in humid environments.
