100 µF bulk capacitance with controlled ESR
The TPSC107K010T0200 is a molded tantalum capacitor from the KYOCERA AVX TPS series, offering 100 µF capacitance with ±10% tolerance in a 2312 (6032 Metric) surface-mount package. A lower ESR means less voltage ripple for a given ripple current, but the 200 mOhm figure is typical for a C-case tantalum at this density.
Temperature range and voltage derating
The 10 V rated voltage is the maximum DC bias at 85°C; above that temperature, standard tantalum derating guidelines recommend applying no more than 50-67% of rated voltage for reliable operation. At 125°C, the voltage derating factor is typically 0.67, so the practical working voltage is around 6.7 V.
