The TPS series of low ESR SMD capacitors from AVX are designed for use mainly in power supply applications. The TPS series of capacitor is available with 14 different case size options.

Low ESR (equivalent series resistance)
High ripple current capability
Low power and heat dissipation

Tantalum Capacitors SMD assembly ready style. There are four types of SMD termination styles. J-lead type, TACmicrochip®, under tab/face down and conformal designs. J-lead is the well established mechanical robust style for general usage, the other termination types are bringing high CV advantage.

With an ESR as low as 80mΩ, TPS capacitors are suitable for smoothing and filtering on 3.3V power rails, which is a favourite output voltage of DC/DC converters. Devices with high capacitance can also be used as battery support in handheld devices where small size is one of the key design requirements. TPS tantalum capacitors have a maximum direct leakage current of 19.8μA and a maximum dissipation factor at 120Hz of 12%. Operating temperature range is -55 to +125°C. Importantly, these devices meet the requirements of AEC-Q200 for the automotive industry.
