What is TPSE227K016T0150V used for?
The TPSE227K016T0150V is used for bulk decoupling and output ripple filtering on 5V to 15V power rails in DC-DC converters, portable computing devices, and telecommunications equipment where low ESR and high capacitance density are required. Its 220µF value and 150 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz make it effective in switching converter output stages where electrolytic alternatives would require larger board footprints. The solid tantalum construction ensures stable capacitance over the operating temperature range for reliable power delivery in industrial control and instrumentation applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 150 mΩ ESR of the TPSE227K016T0150V improve switching regulator output filter performance?
The 150 mΩ ESR of the TPSE227K016T0150V, measured at 100 kHz, reduces output voltage ripple at switching frequencies by minimizing the resistive voltage drop across the capacitor during charge and discharge cycles. Lower ESR directly improves load transient response in buck and boost converters, allowing the 220µF capacitor to stabilize output voltage faster when load steps occur, which is critical for processors and FPGAs powered by point-of-load regulators in embedded systems.
When should a designer choose the TPSE227K016T0150V tantalum over an aluminum electrolytic capacitor of the same 220µF value?
Tantalum capacitors like the TPSE227K016T0150V are preferred over aluminum electrolytics when board space is limited, since solid tantalum achieves 220µF in a 4.1mm-height SMD package versus the taller cylindrical form of equivalent aluminum electrolytics. Tantalum also provides longer service life without capacitance degradation from electrolyte evaporation, making it more reliable over 10-year or longer design lifetimes in telecommunications, medical, and industrial equipment operating across wide temperature ranges.
What derating practice should engineers follow for the TPSE227K016T0150V in a 12V power rail application?
For the TPSE227K016T0150V rated at 16V, standard tantalum derating practice recommends applying no more than 50% of the rated voltage in continuous operation, which means limiting the working voltage to 8V or below in most applications. Using this capacitor on a 12V rail without adequate derating increases the risk of dielectric breakdown and catastrophic failure, so engineers should select a higher-voltage 35V or 50V rated tantalum with similar 220µF capacitance when the rail voltage exceeds 8V to maintain safe long-term reliability.
