Product details

The TPSE686M025R0125: With a maximum ESR of 125 mOhm, this part handles ripple currents typical of DC-DC converter output filtering and bulk decoupling on power distribution rails.

The 125 mOhm ESR at 25 V sets the ripple current ceiling — higher ripple current through the capacitor generates I²R losses that raise internal temperature. At 125°C ambient, the derating curve from the datasheet governs how much ripple the part can sustain before self-heating exceeds the limit. The ±20% tolerance means the actual capacitance at 25 V and 25°C can be as low as 54.4 µF or as high as 81.6 µF — a factor to budget when sizing for hold-up time or output voltage ripple in a switching regulator.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of the TPSE686M025R0125 and why does it matter?

The ESR is 125 mOhm maximum. This value directly determines ripple current handling — lower ESR means less self-heating and higher allowable ripple in power supply filtering applications.
