Molded tantalum, 1.5 µF at 50 V — what this rating buys
The TPSC155K050R1500 is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TPS series, delivering 1.5 µF ±10% at a 50 V rating. The 2312 (6032 Metric) case, size code C, fits a standard 6.00 mm x 3.20 mm footprint with a 2.80 mm seated height.
Product status is Active. No pin-compatible second source or cross-reference is listed by the manufacturer.
Surface-mount footprint and temperature grade
The 2312 (6032 Metric) molded case is a standard tantalum footprint. The 1.5 Ohm ESR is specified at 25°C and 100 kHz; expect ESR to rise at low temperature and fall at high temperature per the typical tantalum derating curve. The 50 V rating provides margin for 12 V, 24 V, and 28 V rails — 80 % derating is common practice for tantalum reliability. The TPS series is a general-purpose molded tantalum line. No AEC-Q100 or military qualification is cited — for high-reliability programs, confirm the application's derating and screening requirements separately.
