The TPSW686M010R0100: The ±20% tolerance is standard for tantalum; the actual capacitance at the DC bias voltage will be lower than the nominal 68 µF, so budget 54 µF effective at 5 V bias for a 10 V-rated part.
The TPS series is a standard molded tantalum line; no pin-compatible successor or cross-reference is documented. Availability and current pricing confirmed at RFQ — no stock-holding claim.
The ESR is 100 mOhm. This sets the ripple current handling: at 68 µF and 10 V, the self-heating at 1 A ripple is 100 mW, which is within the case's thermal budget for most decoupling applications. Higher ESR would limit the ripple current before reaching the voltage rating.
