293D226X9016C2TE3
Public Made by Adomby adom
Vishay Intertech Tantalum Capacitors, CASE-C-6032-28(mm). Unpolarised two-terminal part: the datasheet prints no pin numbers, so pins 1 and 2 follow the library convention, KiCad symbol/footprint/3D.
Reel orientation: conflict, page says unpolarised but 293D is a polarised tantalum
Found by the Puma assembly sim's rotation check (ROT), ADVISORY. Sim-director checkpoint c2, 2026-10-28.
Finding: Conflict: the page calls it an unpolarised capacitor, "either orientation". 293D is a polarised solid tantalum.
Evidence (the datasheet on this page): p. 18 reel sketch: "Cathode (-)" at the end toward the sprocket holes, "Anode (+)" (banded end) away from them, "Direction of Feed" to the right
Suggested addition to the page: Polarised: pad for the anode (+) band. Reel: anode away from the sprocket holes (cathode toward them), 12 mm tape, 8 mm pitch (case C)
Why it matters: the Puma's carrier Orientation for this part has to match how it sits in the tape. If it does not, a polarised part is placed rotated. The nametag first article on 2026-09-21 placed its USB-C 180 degrees off this way. Angles are in the tape frame: 0 means toward the direction of feed, 90 toward the sprocket holes, viewed from the cover tape. EIA-481 quadrants are as TI draws them, Q1 upper-left with the holes on top and the feed to the right.
