This solid tantalum capacitor provides 10μF capacitance with a 16VDC rating in a compact surface-mount A Case package, also known as EIA 3216.
It is a polar capacitor with ±10% tolerance, low ESR of 5 Ohms, and operation up to 125°C, making it suitable for DC-based circuits.
Use it for common electronics tasks such as power supply filtering, coupling, and bypassing where a small SMD tantalum capacitor is required.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- capacitance
- Capacitance is the amount of electrical charge a capacitor can store, usually measured in farads such as uF. Choosing the right capacitance value matters because it affects how well a circuit filters power, handles timing, or stores short bursts of energy.
- DC
- DC means direct current, where electricity flows in one constant direction, as supplied by batteries, USB ports and many plug-pack power supplies. When a product specifies DC, it runs from a DC supply rather than mains AC, so you need to provide the correct voltage and polarity.
- SMD
- SMD means surface-mount device, a component style designed to be soldered directly onto the surface of a circuit board rather than through holes. SMD parts are compact and mounted flat on the board, which suits smaller and mass-produced designs.
- Tolerance
- Tolerance tells you how far the real resistance value may be from the printed value. A 1% resistor is useful when a circuit needs more predictable behaviour than a looser 5% or 10% part.
