What this capacitor does for your board
The TPSB226M006R0600 is a molded tantalum capacitor from KYOCERA AVX's TPS series, rated at 22 µF with a 6.3 V working voltage and ±20% tolerance. The 600 mOhm ESR keeps ripple heating manageable in power-supply decoupling and filtering roles — a lower ESR means less self-heating at a given ripple current, which directly extends capacitor life on the board.
Temperature range and where it fits
That means it works in engine-bay electronics, outdoor telecom cabinets, and downhole instrumentation where the ambient swings well beyond commercial limits. The molded case (Size B, 3.50mm x 2.80mm footprint) is surface-mount and compatible with standard reflow profiles — no special handling beyond normal MSL precautions.
That means you can design it into a new BOM today without worrying about a last-time-buy window closing. Sourced through independent distribution; quoted to order against your line-item quantity.
