ESR and voltage rating — the decoupling decision
The TPSB476K010A0250: The 250 mOhm ESR at 10 V rated is the headline spec for a 47 µF tantalum in a DC-DC output filter or rail decoupling role. Molded case, 1210 footprint (3.50 mm x 2.80 mm), seated height 2.10 mm max — fits standard 1210 land pattern; no via-in-pad required for the anode termination.
Temperature grade — where it sits on the board
This cap holds its capacitance and ESR through engine-bay ambient, outdoor telecom cabinets in direct sun, and satellite thermal cycling — the molded construction keeps moisture ingress low across the range.
Quoted to order against BOM quantity; reel quantities only (Tape & Reel). No direct second-source listed, but the TPS series is a standard molded tantalum family; functional equivalents from Kemet and Vishay share the same 1210 case code and voltage rating.
