MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 is a 2.2 µF ceramic capacitor rated at 100V with X5R temperature coefficient, manufactured by Taiyo Yuden in 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount package. This component is classified as Active product status and is suitable for medical and non-critical applications. The part is ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part experiences inventory constraints, supply chain disruptions, or when design requirements permit selection from alternative product lines within the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 2.2 µF
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Voltage - Rated: 100V
• Temperature Coefficient: X5R
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 85°C
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Physical Dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)
• Thickness (Max): 0.071" (1.80mm)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The substitute part HMK316ABJ225ML-TE meets all mandatory matching parameters and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the primary part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part (MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01): The MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 carries Active product status and is the preferred selection for new designs. This part is suitable for medical and non-critical applications and maintains full ROHS3 compliance with REACH Unaffected status.

Substitute Part (HMK316ABJ225ML-TE): The HMK316ABJ225ML-TE is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the primary part across all specified parameters. However, this part carries Not For New Designs product status. Selection of this substitute is appropriate only for legacy system maintenance, repair operations, or when the primary part is unavailable. The substitute maintains identical electrical performance, physical dimensions, and regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected).

Both parts are manufactured by Taiyo Yuden and are suitable for surface mount assembly processes without modification to PCB layouts or assembly procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HMK316ABJ225ML-TE be used as a direct replacement for MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01?

A: Yes. The HMK316ABJ225ML-TE is electrically and mechanically equivalent across all specified parameters including capacitance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, package dimensions, and regulatory compliance. Direct substitution is possible without circuit modification or PCB redesign.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on the substitute part?

A: The "Not For New Designs" designation indicates that HMK316ABJ225ML-TE is a legacy product line. For new product development, the MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 (Active status) is the recommended selection. The substitute part is suitable for maintenance and repair of existing systems.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between the two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts are packaged in 1206 (3216 Metric) case with identical dimensions of 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) and maximum thickness of 0.071" (1.80mm). No PCB layout modifications are required for substitution.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 and HMK316ABJ225ML-TE are ROHS3 compliant, REACH Unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Regulatory compliance is identical.

Q: What is the difference in application focus between these parts?

A: The primary part (MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01) is specified for medical and non-critical applications. The substitute part (HMK316ABJ225ML-TE) is specified for SMPS filtering applications. Both parts are electrically identical and can function in either application context.

Q: Are there inventory differences between the two parts?

A: Yes. The primary part MLASH31LAB5225MTCA01 has 798 pieces in stock, while the substitute HMK316ABJ225ML-TE has 3482 pieces available. Substitute selection may be driven by inventory availability requirements.
