The TAJV157M016RNJ delivers 150 µF of capacitance in a molded 2924 (7361 Metric) case — a common footprint for power-rail smoothing on dense PCBs where board area is tight. Rated at 16 V with a 500 mOhm ESR, it suits 12 V rails with standard 20% derating, keeping ripple current self-heating within the tantalum safe-operating area.

Frequently asked questions
What package size is TAJV157M016RNJ and is it polarized?
It comes in a 2924 (7361 Metric) surface-mount case — 7.30 mm x 6.10 mm, seated height 3.75 mm max. As a molded tantalum capacitor, it is polarized; the anode (positive) is marked on the body.
Can I replace TAJV157M016RNJ with a higher voltage capacitor?
A higher-voltage-rated tantalum in the same 2924 case size is a valid drop-in substitute, provided the capacitance and ESR meet the circuit requirements. The higher voltage rating adds derating margin but may increase ESR slightly. Confirm the replacement's ESR and ripple current rating against your load before committing.
