Product details

The TAJT157M002RNJ: This is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TAJ series, rated 150 µF at 2.5 V with ±20% tolerance. The 1.2 Ohm ESR sets the ripple current limit and self-heating — for a 2.5 V rail pulling 500 mA, the ESR drop is 0.6 V, so the capacitor sees about 0.3 W of internal dissipation at full ripple.

The part is still a standard catalog item, so there is no rush to stockpile or redesign around an obsolescence date.

Sourcing against a BOM line

The molded 1411 case (3.50 mm x 2.80 mm footprint) is a common size, so the part fits standard pick-and-place reels.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy TAJT157M002RNJ?

We source this active KYOCERA AVX part through independent distribution.

Can I replace TAJT157M002RNJ with a lower ESR part?

Yes, if the board layout and voltage rating match. Lower ESR reduces ripple heating and improves transient response, but check the ripple current rating of the replacement — a lower ESR part may handle more ripple without overheating.

Is TAJT157M002RNJ polarized?

Yes, it is a tantalum electrolytic capacitor and is polarized. The anode (positive) is marked on the case. Reversing the voltage will damage the part.
