The TPSC686M016Y0200: This is a molded tantalum capacitor from the TPS series, rated 68 µF at 16 V with a ±20% tolerance and 200 mΩ ESR. The 2312 case (6.00 mm × 3.20 mm footprint, 2.80 mm seated height) fits dense PCB layouts where every mm² counts — think DC-DC converter output filters or local bulk decoupling on a power rail.
The 200 mΩ ESR keeps ripple heating manageable in these thermal extremes.
We source this active KYOCERA AVX part through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ with your target quantity and target price; we confirm availability and lead time at quote time — no stock-holding claim, no immediacy promise.
No pin-compatible second source is formally listed by KYOCERA AVX. A functionally equivalent tantalum cap from another manufacturer would need to match 68 µF, 16 V, 200 mΩ ESR, 2312 case, and the -55°C to 125°C range — verify the ESR and case height before substituting.
