10 µF at 16 V — bulk decoupling for 12 V rails
The TPSB106M016R0800: Rated 10 µF at 16 V with ±20% tolerance, this molded tantalum capacitor provides bulk decoupling for 12 V and 5 V power rails. The 800 mOhm ESR sets the ripple current capability and self-heating limit — at 16 V derating to 80 % (12.8 V) is standard practice for tantalum to avoid surge failures on low-impedance rails.
Molded case, 1411 footprint — board layout fit
Housed in a molded 1411 (3528 Metric) case with manufacturer size code B, the part measures 3.50 mm x 2.80 mm with a seated height of 2.10 mm max. The surface-mount footprint suits standard reflow profiles; the molded construction provides mechanical robustness against board flex during assembly and field vibration.
