The 2917 (7343 Metric) case measures 7.30 mm × 4.30 mm with a seated height of 1.50 mm. The molded body is a standard tantalum footprint; the anode pad connects to the positive rail and the cathode pad to ground. For designs that push ripple current near the limit, a thermal relief pattern under the cathode pad helps conduct heat into the PCB ground plane.
The ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) is 600 mOhm. This value determines the ripple current rating and the self-heating under load — a key parameter for power supply output filtering and decoupling applications.
