The 100 mOhm ESR keeps self-heating low under ripple current — for a 3.3 V rail drawing 500 mA, the I²R loss is 25 mW, negligible for the D case footprint.
The molded case handles thermal cycling without cracking the dielectric — a known failure mode in uncoated tantalums.
Ensures the capacitor fits the PCB layout and case size requirements for the design.
Confirms the part is not end-of-life and will be available for production or replacement needs.
ESR affects ripple current handling and circuit efficiency, critical for power applications.
Buyers need to budget and plan BOM procurement, especially for active projects.
Immediate availability is crucial to avoid production delays or shortages.
If primary part is unavailable, engineers need a compatible substitute without redesign.
