The 60 mOhm ESR is the key parameter for power rail decoupling — it determines the ripple current the cap can handle before self-heating shifts the capacitance.
The D case (2917 / 7343 metric) footprint is a standard tantalum size; the 3.10 mm seated height fits typical board-to-board clearance in 1U or 2U enclosures.
The ESR is 60 mOhm. This value sets the ripple current rating — lower ESR means less self-heating at a given ripple, so the cap runs cooler and the capacitance stays stable over the operating temperature range.
The TPS series includes multiple capacitance/voltage combinations in the same D case (2917). A direct cross would be another TPS D-case part with the same footprint and voltage rating — confirm the capacitance and ESR against your derating budget before substituting.
