100 µF bulk decoupling, 16 V rail, 150 mOhm ESR
The TPSF107M016R0150: The 150 mOhm ESR at 100 kHz tells you the ripple current capability — lower ESR means less self-heating and better filtering of switching noise on a power rail. That footprint is common for mid-value tantalum caps — it fits a standard pad layout and reflows without special profiling.
Active production — no lifecycle risk
Sourced through independent distribution channels. No pin-compatible second source is documented in the TPS series — the footprint and ratings are specific to this order code.
