Product details

Bulk decap for a low-voltage rail

The TPME108K004H0018: This is a 1000 µF molded tantalum capacitor rated at 4 V with an 18 mOhm ESR — built for bulk energy storage on a sub-5 V rail where ripple current and transient response matter. The 18 mOhm ESR keeps self-heating manageable when the load steps hard; a higher-ESR cap would cook itself in the same spot. A commercial-grade cap would fail the first thermal cycle in those environments.

Case size and footprint fit

It ships in the 2917 (7343 Metric) case — 7.30 mm x 4.30 mm footprint, 4.30 mm seated height, manufacturer size code E.

Frequently asked questions

Can TPME108K004H0018 be replaced by a ceramic capacitor?

Not directly — this is a 1000 µF tantalum with 18 mOhm ESR. A ceramic cap of the same capacitance at 4 V would be physically much larger (multiple 1210s in parallel) and would have a different voltage coefficient and microphonic response. The replacement decision depends on the board's ripple current, temperature range, and acoustic requirements; a ceramic substitution would need a layout change.
