Product details

15 µF, 16 V, 800 mOhm — bulk decoupling on a 16 V rail

The 800 mOhm ESR is moderate for this capacitance; expect ripple current capability around 200 mA RMS at 100 kHz, which covers most local decoupling needs for a low-power regulator or a small DC-DC converter output.

Full military temperature range, molded case

This covers avionics, downhole drilling, satellite payloads, and outdoor telecom cabinets where the board sees -40°C startup and 105°C continuous operation. The molded case (1411 / 3528 Metric, size code B) measures 3.50 mm x 2.80 mm x 2.10 mm seated height. Surface-mount reflow profile follows standard J-STD-020 for a moisture-sensitive tantalum.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of TPSB156K016R0800?

800 mOhm at 100 kHz typical. This is the equivalent series resistance; it determines the ripple current rating and the self-heating under AC load. For a 15 µF part, 800 mOhm is moderate — expect ripple current capability around 200 mA RMS.

Is TPSB156K016R0800 RoHS compliant?

The evidence does not explicitly state RoHS compliance. Confirm with the datasheet or request a RoHS certificate of compliance at RFQ time.
