F911D156MCC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The F911D156MCC is a 15 µF molded tantalum capacitor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, rated for 20 V operation in a 2312 (6032 Metric) surface mount package. This component is designed for general purpose applications requiring stable capacitance performance across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts become necessary when addressing specific design requirements such as improved tolerance specifications, higher voltage ratings for circuit margin enhancement, or inventory availability constraints while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the F911D156MCC is determined by three critical parameters: capacitance value, package dimensions, and ESR specification. All substitute parts maintain the identical 15 µF capacitance, 2312 (6032 Metric) package footprint, and 450 mOhm ESR rating, ensuring direct mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Substitutes are differentiated by two parameters:

Tolerance Specification: The main part carries ±20% tolerance. Substitute TPSC156K020R0450 offers improved ±10% tolerance at the same 20 V rating, providing tighter capacitance control. Substitutes TPSC156K035R0450 and TPSC156M035R0450 also feature ±10% and ±20% tolerance respectively.

Voltage Rating: The main part is rated 20 V. Substitutes TPSC156K035R0450 and TPSC156M035R0450 are rated 35 V, providing increased voltage margin for applications requiring higher transient protection or design safety factors.

All substitute parts are manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, maintain Active product status, and comply with RoHS3 and REACH requirements identical to the main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TPSC156K020R0450 serves as a direct functional replacement with improved tolerance performance. This part maintains identical voltage and ESR specifications while reducing capacitance tolerance from ±20% to ±10%, suitable for applications requiring tighter capacitance control within the original 20 V design envelope.

TPSC156K035R0450 and TPSC156M035R0450 provide elevated voltage rating at 35 V while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical parameters. These parts are applicable in designs requiring increased voltage margin or where circuit conditions may expose the capacitor to transient overvoltage conditions. TPSC156K035R0450 combines the improved ±10% tolerance with 35 V rating, while TPSC156M035R0450 maintains ±20% tolerance at 35 V.

All substitute parts maintain Active product status, full RoHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TPSC156K020R0450 be used as a direct replacement for F911D156MCC?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (15 µF), voltage rating (20 V), ESR (450 mOhm), and package dimensions (2312/6032 Metric). The primary difference is improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%), which provides tighter capacitance control without affecting circuit compatibility.

Q: What is the advantage of using TPSC156K035R0450 or TPSC156M035R0450?

A: These parts provide 35 V voltage rating compared to the original 20 V specification. This higher rating offers increased design margin for applications subject to voltage transients or where additional safety factor is required. Both maintain the same 15 µF capacitance, 450 mOhm ESR, and 2312 package footprint.

Q: Are all substitute parts mechanically compatible with the original design?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use the identical 2312 (6032 Metric) surface mount package with matching footprint dimensions (0.236" L × 0.126" W, 6.00mm × 3.20mm) and maximum seated height (0.110", 2.80mm). No PCB layout modifications are required.

Q: Do substitute parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity) rating identical to the main part. All parts maintain Active product status from KYOCERA AVX.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for improved tolerance performance?

A: TPSC156K020R0450 provides ±10% tolerance at the original 20 V rating. For applications requiring both improved tolerance and higher voltage margin, TPSC156K035R0450 offers ±10% tolerance at 35 V.
