Frequently Asked Questions
What capacitance and voltage rating does the T494A106K006AT provide, and which low-voltage rails is it suited for?
The T494A106K006AT provides 10 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating with 10% tolerance. It is well-suited for decoupling and filtering on 3.3 V and 5 V digital logic supply rails commonly found in microcontrollers, FPGAs, and SoC-based embedded boards where stable, low-impedance bulk capacitance is essential.
How does the low ESR of the T494A106K006AT benefit switching converter designs compared to standard electrolytics?
The T494A106K006AT features a low ESR MnO2 solid tantalum construction that significantly reduces output voltage ripple compared to conventional aluminum electrolytic capacitors. This low ESR allows higher ripple current handling, improving efficiency and reducing heat generation in buck or LDO output stages operating at switching frequencies above 100 kHz.
What case size does the T494A106K006AT use and how does this compare to competing 10 µF SMD capacitors?
The T494A106K006AT uses Case Size A (EIA 3216-18), measuring approximately 3.2 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.8 mm. This is among the smallest available SMD packages for a 10 µF tantalum capacitor, offering better volumetric efficiency than aluminum electrolytic capacitors in comparable case sizes, making it favorable for high-density PCB assembly in portable devices.
When is the T494A106K006AT a better procurement choice than a multilayer ceramic capacitor at 10 µF?
The T494A106K006AT is a better procurement choice than a 10 µF MLCC when designers require predictable capacitance under DC bias and stable performance across temperature. MLCCs at 10 µF in small case sizes can lose 50-80% of their rated capacitance under applied DC voltage, whereas the T494A106K006AT maintains stable 10 µF capacitance at its 6.3 V rating with only 10% tolerance variation.
