Its 60 mOhm equivalent series resistance at 100 kHz keeps ripple heating low in switching-regulator output filters — the ESR directly sets the I²R loss and the output voltage ripple under load.
The 2000-hour endurance at max temp is the derating baseline — running at 105°C instead of 125°C roughly doubles the expected life per the Arrhenius model.
Both parts share the same capacitance (100 µF), voltage (16 V), tolerance (±10%), and case size (2917 / D case). The difference is the ESR rating: TPSD107K016A0060 specifies 60 mOhm at 100 kHz, while the -A0050 suffix typically carries a different ESR target. Confirm the ESR requirement for your circuit before substituting — the lower-ESR part may be necessary if ripple or transient response is critical.
