LOG112: Tantalum bypass capacitor alternative

Part Number: LOG112

Hi,

We have been using log112 for our sensor signal conditioning for the past three years. Recently smoking was observed in a few boards and the issue is the 10uF tantalum decoupling capacitor used. What will be a better alternative - electrolytic or MLCC? The datasheet mentions a tantalum capacitor but considering the fire hazard, which is better?

Thanks & Regards,

Murali
