22 µF, 10 V, 900 mOhm ESR — molded tantalum for tight boards
The TPSA226M010H0900 is a molded tantalum capacitor from KYOCERA AVX's TPS series, delivering 22 µF capacitance at a 10 V rated voltage in a 1206 (3216 Metric) surface-mount package. Its 900 mOhm ESR is the spec that matters for ripple current handling — on a 10 V rail, that ESR limits the ripple current to about 110 mA RMS before self-heating becomes an issue. Keep that in mind if this cap sits near a switching regulator output.

1206 footprint — field-swappable with standard rework kit
The 1206 case (3.20 mm x 1.60 mm) is a common size — fits a standard soldering iron tip and hot-air station. Polarity marking is clear on the molded body, so orientation is straightforward even without a lab bench.
