Product details

The TAJS105M020RNJ is a molded tantalum capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX TAJ series, rated 1 µF at 20 V with ±20% tolerance in a standard 1206 (3216 Metric) surface-mount case. The 20 V rating on a 1206 case gives enough derating headroom for a 12 V rail — typical practice is to derate tantalums by 50% for DC bias, so this part comfortably covers a 10 V bus. With a 12 Ohm ESR, this cap is suited for decoupling, filtering, and timing circuits where moderate series resistance is acceptable — not for high-ripple bulk storage where lower ESR is needed to keep self-heating in check.

The full -55 to 125 °C temperature range means the capacitor is qualified for the same thermal envelope as military-grade ICs and ceramic passives, simplifying derating analysis on a mixed-technology board.

Frequently asked questions

Is TAJS105M020RNJ suitable for high-reliability applications like aerospace?

The -55 to 125 °C operating range and molded construction make it usable in military-temperature environments, but it is a standard TAJ-series part without MIL-spec screening or JAN qualification. For defence or space programs requiring full lot traceability and burn-in, request the MIL-grade equivalent from the same series.

What is the closest equivalent to TAJS105M020RNJ if I need a lower ESR?

Within the same TAJ series, a larger case size (e.g., 1210 or 2312) at the same 1 µF and 20 V rating will typically offer lower ESR. No direct pin-compatible drop-in exists — the pad footprint changes with case size, so a board layout change is required.
