10 µF, 4 V, 3 Ohm ESR — bulk decoupling in 0805
The TPSR106K004R3000: The 3 Ohm ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) determines the ripple current the part can handle before self-heating becomes a concern. For a 10 µF cap at 4 V, this ESR is typical for the TPS series and sets the ripple current rating — a key parameter when the capacitor sits on a switching regulator output or a high-frequency digital supply. Operating temperature spans -55°C to 125°C, covering industrial, automotive under-hood, and military-grade environments without derating at the high end. The 0805 (2012 Metric) package is widely used and rework-friendly — a standard hot-air station at 300°C with a fine nozzle lifts the part cleanly without lifting the pad, provided the board is preheated to 100°C.
Active lifecycle — no end-of-life risk
The part ships in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, standard for automated pick-and-place assembly. The molded case construction provides mechanical robustness and a consistent footprint for reflow soldering.
