0.68 µF, 25 V, 6 Ω ESR — the ESR drives the filter and ripple budget
The TPSA684K025R6000 is a molded tantalum capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX TPS series, rated 0.68 µF at 25 V with a ±10% tolerance. The 6 Ω ESR is the headline parameter for a capacitor of this density: it sets the self-heating limit under ripple current and defines the corner frequency when used as an output filter or decoupling element. In a 25 V rail with 100 mV p-p ripple, the ESR dominates the capacitor's impedance at switching frequencies above a few hundred kilohertz.
