Molded tantalum construction and its repair-bench reality
The 2.6 Ohm ESR is a mid-range value for a 6.8 µF tantalum in a 1206 case — it limits ripple current handling to roughly 200 mA RMS at 25°C before self-heating becomes a concern, so check your rail's ripple budget.
This BOM line stays available for new builds and replacement repairs alike.
