10TCE220ML Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 10TCE220ML is a 220 µF molded tantalum polymer capacitor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, rated for 10 V operation. This component is part of the POSCAP™ TC series and is designed for general-purpose surface mount applications in the 2917 (7343 Metric) package. The part is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to provide design flexibility, ensure supply chain continuity, and support component procurement strategies when the primary part is unavailable or when alternative sourcing is required.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 10TCE220ML are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The primary substitution criteria are:

• Capacitance value: 220 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 10 V (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 2917 (7343 Metric) (exact match required)
• ESR specification: 25 mOhm @ 100 kHz (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• Type: Molded Tantalum Polymer (exact match required)

The T55D227M010C0025 from Vishay Sprague meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters, making it a direct functional equivalent for the 10TCE220ML in applications where these specifications are required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 10TCE220ML and T55D227M010C0025 are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Supply availability and lead time requirements
• Procurement cost and inventory management
• Thermal environment of the application: The 10TCE220ML supports operation to 125°C, while the T55D227M010C0025 is rated to 105°C. Applications requiring sustained operation above 105°C require the 10TCE220ML.
• Physical clearance constraints: The T55D227M010C0025 has a maximum seated height of 0.122" (3.10mm) compared to 0.118" (3.00mm) for the 10TCE220ML. Applications with tight vertical space constraints may require verification of the substitute part's fit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the T55D227M010C0025 be used as a direct replacement for the 10TCE220ML?

A: Yes, the T55D227M010C0025 is electrically and mechanically equivalent for applications operating within the -55°C to 105°C temperature range. Both parts share identical capacitance, voltage rating, ESR, package dimensions, and tolerance specifications.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range between these parts?

A: The 10TCE220ML operates from -55°C to 125°C, while the T55D227M010C0025 operates from -55°C to 105°C. For applications requiring sustained operation above 105°C, the 10TCE220ML is the required choice.

Q: Are there physical differences that affect PCB layout?

A: Both parts use the 2917 (7343 Metric) package with identical length and width dimensions (7.30mm x 4.30mm). The seated height differs slightly: 10TCE220ML is 3.00mm maximum, while T55D227M010C0025 is 3.10mm maximum. This 0.10mm difference is typically not significant for standard PCB designs but should be verified for applications with tight vertical clearance requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes, both the 10TCE220ML and T55D227M010C0025 are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.
