Product details

Capacitance and voltage — the BOM fit check

This TAJT685K006RNJ is a 6.8 µF tantalum capacitor rated at 6.3 V DC, with ±10% tolerance.

ESR and temperature — what they mean on the board

The 5 Ohm ESR is on the higher side for a 6.8 µF tantalum — expect more ripple heating than a low-ESR polymer would give. For a decoupling cap on a digital rail, that ESR adds to the power-supply impedance; for an output filter cap, it limits the ripple current you can pass before the part cooks. The ESR climbs at cold temps, so at -55°C the effective filtering drops; budget for that if the circuit must hold regulation at low temperature.

Package and footprint — what fits the board

The footprint is 3.50 mm x 2.80 mm with a seated height of 1.20 mm — low-profile enough for tight stacked boards, but the molded body means no conformal coating issues on the side fill.

You can design it in without worrying about a last-time-buy window closing.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use a ceramic capacitor instead of TAJT685K006RNJ?

A ceramic cap of the same value and voltage rating will have much lower ESR and better high-frequency performance, but it will also have DC bias derating — the effective capacitance drops as the DC voltage rises. A 6.8 µF MLCC in 1206 at 6.3 V might give only 3-4 µF at 5 V bias. Tantalum holds its full value across the voltage range, which matters for timing circuits or filter poles that need stable capacitance.

Is TAJT685K006RNJ RoHS compliant?

The evidence does not explicitly list RoHS compliance status. Confirm with the datasheet or request a certificate of compliance at RFQ time.
