Key Features
- Niobium oxide dielectric provides a fail-safe capacitor mode (shorts to resistive, not dead short) compared to traditional tantalum, improving circuit robustness
- 10 µF at 6.3 V in a compact 1206 package with 1.6 mm height enables effective low-voltage decoupling in space-constrained SMT designs
- ESR of 2200 mΩ measured at 100 kHz is specified precisely, enabling accurate switching regulator output filter design
- RoHS-compliant and REACH-compliant construction supports global environmental regulatory requirements for electronics
Applications
The NOJA106M006RWJ is used as a low-voltage bypass and decoupling capacitor on 3.3 V and 5 V power rails in portable electronics, wearable devices, and IoT sensor nodes where tantalum capacitor ignition risk must be avoided. Its niobium oxide dielectric provides inherently safer failure behavior compared to standard MnO2 tantalum capacitors, making it preferred in medical-grade and safety-critical power supply designs. The 1206 SMD footprint allows integration into standard automated reflow assembly lines alongside other passive components.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the niobium oxide dielectric in the NOJA106M006RWJ differ from standard tantalum capacitor construction?
Unlike conventional MnO2 tantalum capacitors, which can fail with an ignition-prone short circuit when exposed to voltage transients, the NOJA106M006RWJ uses a niobium oxide dielectric that degrades to a high-resistance state rather than a dead short. This self-healing behavior significantly reduces fire and PCB burn risk on 5 V and 6.3 V power rails, making niobium oxide the preferred choice in battery-powered and safety-critical applications.
What is the ESR specification of the NOJA106M006RWJ, and at what frequency is it measured?
The NOJA106M006RWJ has an equivalent series resistance of 2200 mΩ, which is measured at 100 kHz. This relatively high ESR compared to ceramic capacitors means the NOJA106M006RWJ is best suited for low-frequency power supply decoupling at frequencies below 100 kHz rather than high-frequency RF bypass applications, and designers should account for the 2200 mΩ value when calculating output ripple voltage in their switching regulator filter designs.
For which supply voltage rails is the NOJA106M006RWJ rated, and what derating practice should be applied?
The NOJA106M006RWJ is rated at 6.3 V nominal. Standard industry practice derate electrolytic and wet solid-dielectric capacitors to 50% of rated voltage for improved reliability, which restricts the NOJA106M006RWJ to rails at or below approximately 3.2 V in derating-compliant designs. It is therefore well matched to 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V digital supply rails commonly found in microcontroller and FPGA power domains.
What SMD footprint and height does the NOJA106M006RWJ occupy on the PCB, and how does it compare to a 10 µF X5R ceramic?
The NOJA106M006RWJ occupies a 1206 footprint (3.2 x 1.6 mm) with a 1.6 mm body height. A 10 µF 0805 X5R ceramic capacitor uses a smaller 2.0 x 1.25 mm footprint at lower height, but its capacitance can drop by more than 80% under DC bias at 6.3 V due to voltage coefficient effects. The NOJA106M006RWJ maintains its rated 10 µF at the operating voltage, making it the more predictable choice for filter capacitance budgeting.
