Product details

10 µF at 50 V, 500 mOhm ESR — bulk decoupling fit

The TPSE106M050R0500: That ESR figure is the one that governs ripple handling in a DC-DC converter output — at 500 mOhm it can absorb the AC ripple current without excessive self-heating, which is the failure mode that sends tantalums into thermal runaway. The 50 V rating gives a solid derating margin for a 24 V or 28 V rail — standard practice is to stay below 80% of rated voltage for tantalum reliability, so this cap comfortably covers a 40 V bus.

Temperature range and case — -55 to 125°C, 2917 footprint

Operating from -55°C to 125°C, this covers the full industrial and military temperature band — no derating needed for an outdoor telecom base station or an engine-bay ECU that sees 105°C ambient. That footprint is standard across the TPS series — a board layout for a 10 µF 35 V part in the same case accepts this 50 V variant without a pad change. Tolerance is ±20%, which is typical for molded tantalum chips — fine for bulk decoupling and hold-up capacitance where the exact value is less critical than the minimum at the worst-case temperature.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of TPSE106M050R0500 and why does it matter?

The ESR is 500 mOhm. That is the series resistance that determines how much AC ripple current the capacitor can handle before self-heating becomes a problem. For a 10 µF output cap on a 500 kHz buck converter, 500 mOhm keeps the ripple voltage within 20-30 mV at typical load currents.

What case size and footprint does this part use?

The pad layout is standard across the TPS series — a 10 µF 35 V part in the same case is a drop-in swap.
