Product details

68 µF bulk cap with a 125 mOhm ESR — what that means on the bench

The TPSW686M006R0125: That ESR figure is the one that governs ripple current handling — at 125 mOhm, the self-heating from ripple stays manageable up to the capacitor's rated current, which is typically around 1.2 A RMS for this case size.

Package and temperature — board-fit and environment

The molded construction gives it better moisture resistance than uncoated chips, which matters if the board sees conformal coating or occasional condensation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR on this cap and why does it matter?

The ESR is 125 mOhm. That's the series resistance that determines how much ripple current the cap can handle before self-heating becomes a problem. For a 68 µF tantalum in a 2312 case, 125 mOhm is typical for the standard TPS series — lower than the general-purpose TAJ series but not as low as the low-ESR TPS variants. If your circuit pulls high-frequency ripple, the ESR also sets the impedance floor at resonance.

What compliance documentation does KYOCERA AVX provide for this part?

The TPS series is RoHS compliant and lead-free per the standard KYOCERA AVX tantalum capacitor declaration. Specific REACH, UL, or IEC documentation is available from the manufacturer upon request through the supply chain — no blanket exemption applies to this molded tantalum construction.
