Molded tantalum bulk decoupling — 33 µF, 10 V, 150 mOhm ESR
The TPSC336M010R0150 is a molded tantalum capacitor from the AVX TPS series, rated 33 µF at 10 V with ±20% tolerance and a maximum ESR of 150 mOhm. The 150 mOhm ESR is the key figure for a power rail designer: it sets the ripple voltage at the switching frequency and the I²R self-heating under ripple current. For a 500 mA load transient, the initial voltage droop is 75 mV before the regulator loop reacts — that number goes into the output capacitor budget alongside the bulk capacitance.
Case size, footprint, and temperature grade
Packaged in the C case (2312 / 6032 metric), measuring 6.00 mm x 3.20 mm with a seated height of 2.80 mm max. Surface-mount assembly on standard FR-4; the 2312 footprint is common across TPS series C-case parts, so a single pad layout can be reused for multiple capacitance values in the same voltage family.
No pin-compatible second source or direct replacement is documented, but the TPS series includes multiple C-case 33 µF options at different voltage ratings and ESR grades — confirm the 10 V and 150 mOhm ESR match before substituting.
