Product details

68 µF, 16 V, 150 mOhm — bulk decoupling in a D-case footprint

The TPSD686K016R0150: Its 150 mOhm equivalent series resistance (ESR) at 100 kHz is the key parameter for ripple current handling and transient response in power-supply decoupling or energy-storage applications.

Temperature range and operating environment

Rated for -55 °C to +125 °C, this capacitor covers the full military temperature band. The tantalum / manganese dioxide cathode system is stable across this range, though derating the applied voltage to 50% of rated (8 V or less) is standard practice to reduce field-failure risk from surge current or reverse bias.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of the TPSD686K016R0150 and why does it matter?

The ESR is 150 mOhm at 100 kHz. This value determines the capacitor's ripple current capability and self-heating under AC load — lower ESR means less internal heat and longer life in high-frequency decoupling or filtering roles.
