10 µF at 35 V — what the CV intersection tells you about fit
The TPSY106M035R0250: That capacitance-voltage point fits a bulk decoupling or DC-blocking role on a 24 V or 12 V rail where the 35 V rating provides headroom against switching transients. The 250 mOhm ESR sets the ripple-current ceiling — at 100 kHz, the self-heating from ripple current is I² × ESR, so a 1 A ripple dissipates 250 mW inside the part. For a power-supply output cap, this ESR is typical of a general-purpose tantalum; a low-ESR polymer would run cooler at the same ripple.
Case size and board-fit constraints
The Y-size code means the body length is the standard 7.3 mm, not the extended 7.5 mm of some D-size parts — the footprint matches the standard 2917 land pattern, so no layout change from a typical 2917 tantalum. Surface-mount assembly with the molded package — the part is compatible with reflow soldering.
The TPS series is a broad molded-tantalum family from KYOCERA AVX.
