2917 solid tantalum — bulk decoupling for tight rails
The TPSY107M010R0100: With a 100 mOhm equivalent series resistance (ESR), it handles ripple currents typical of switching regulator outputs without excessive self-heating — the ESR is the dominant term in the dissipation factor, so a lower figure means less temperature rise for the same ripple current.
Footprint and integration — what the 2917 case demands
Tape-and-reel packaging aligns with automated pick-and-place assembly; the molded case provides mechanical robustness against board flex during reflow and handling.
