Product details

100 µF, 16 V, 100 mOhm — the ESR drives the ripple rating

The TPSY107M016R0100: That ESR figure is the one that governs how much ripple current the part can handle in a DC-DC output filter — at 100 kHz, the ripple current rating is roughly the square root of (power dissipation / ESR), so a lower ESR directly buys more ripple headroom for the same case size. The 2917 (7343 metric) package with a 2.0 mm seated height is the standard footprint for this capacitance range — it lands on the same pads as any other 2917 tantalum, so a board designed for a competitor's 100 µF/16 V part accepts this one without a layout change.

Temperature range and derating margin

The ±20% tolerance is standard for tantalum electrolytics — the capacitance change with temperature and DC bias is small compared to ceramic MLCCs, so a 100 µF nominal stays above 80 µF across the operating range, which is what the downstream regulator's loop compensation expects.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESR of TPSY107M016R0100 and why does it matter?

The ESR is 100 mOhm. This is the spec that determines the ripple current rating in a DC-DC converter output — a lower ESR means the cap can handle more AC ripple before hitting its internal temperature rise limit. For a 100 µF/16 V tantalum in a 2917 package, 100 mOhm is a solid general-purpose value, not a low-ESR specialty grade.

What package and footprint does TPSY107M016R0100 use?

The footprint is the same as any other 2917 tantalum — no special land pattern required.
