Product details

100 mOhm ESR and temperature range

Rated for -55°C to 125°C operation, the TPSW686K010R0100 covers industrial temperature ranges and automotive under-hood environments where the ambient may reach 105°C and the capacitor's own self-heating adds another 10-15°C.

The ±10% tolerance is standard for tantalum electrolytic capacitors used in decoupling and filtering — the capacitance value at 10 V bias will stay within 61.2 µF to 74.8 µF across the temperature range.

Surface-mount termination with Tape & Reel packaging supports automated pick-and-place assembly at rates above 10,000 components per hour — the molded body resists solder reflow temperatures up to 260°C peak per J-STD-020.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of TPSW686K010R0100 and why does it matter?

The ESR is 100 mOhm, which determines how much ripple current the capacitor can handle before self-heating exceeds the temperature rating. For a typical buck converter output at 500 kHz, 100 mOhm ESR means roughly 1.5 A ripple current produces about 225 mW of internal heat — well within the 125°C limit when ambient stays below 105°C.
