Capacitance, voltage, and ESR for BOM fit
The TPSA106K010Y1800 is a 10 µF, 10 V rated molded tantalum capacitor with ±10% tolerance and 1.8 Ohm ESR.
Store the reels dry: the molded case is not hermetic, and moisture ingress over time can shift leakage current.
Housed in a 1206 (3216 Metric) case, size code A, with dimensions 3.20 mm x 1.60 mm and a seated height of 1.80 mm max. This is a standard tantalum chip footprint — the land pattern matches the generic 1206 resistor/capacitor pad, so no special layout accommodation is needed.
No direct pin-compatible replacement exists because the TPS series is the active line; if you need a lower ESR variant, the TPS series includes other ESR options in the same 1206 case, but those are different order codes.
