MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 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 multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) is designed for SMPS filtering applications and is currently in Active product status with 700 pieces available in stock.

The substitute part HMK316ABJ225KL-TE is functionally equivalent but carries a "Not For New Designs" product status. Identifying equivalent parts is necessary when the primary part becomes unavailable, when design revisions require alternative sourcing, or when supply chain optimization requires qualified alternatives.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 is determined by strict parametric matching across the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Capacitance: 2.2 µF
• Voltage Rating: 100V
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Temperature Coefficient: X5R

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Physical Dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)
• Maximum Thickness: 0.071" (1.80mm)

Environmental & Compliance Parameters (Must Match or Exceed):

• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 85°C
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part HMK316ABJ225KL-TE meets all mandatory parametric requirements for direct substitution in the MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 application.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (Active Status): The MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 is the recommended choice for new designs. This part carries Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturer support, continued availability, and suitability for new product development. Current inventory of 700 pieces supports immediate procurement requirements.

Alternative Selection (Legacy Status): The HMK316ABJ225KL-TE is a parametrically equivalent substitute suitable for existing designs requiring component replacement or supply chain alternatives. This part carries "Not For New Designs" status, indicating it is maintained for legacy support and existing applications only. The significantly higher available inventory (51,344 pieces) may provide supply chain advantages for replacement or repair scenarios.

Compliance Basis: Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, eliminating special storage or handling requirements. Both parts are supplied in identical Tape & Reel packaging suitable for automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HMK316ABJ225KL-TE be used as a direct replacement for MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 in existing applications?

A: Yes. All electrical, mechanical, and environmental parameters are identical. The parts are pin-compatible, package-compatible, and functionally equivalent. The substitute part carries "Not For New Designs" status, which does not affect its performance in existing applications.

Q: Why does HMK316ABJ225KL-TE have "Not For New Designs" status?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer lifecycle management. This designation indicates the part is maintained for legacy support and existing designs but is not recommended for new product development. The MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 (Active status) is the current recommended part for new designs.

Q: Are there any differences in PCB layout or assembly requirements between these parts?

A: No. Both parts use identical 1206 (3216 Metric) package dimensions, identical mounting type (Surface Mount, MLCC), and identical Tape & Reel packaging. No PCB layout modifications or assembly process changes are required for substitution.

Q: Do these parts require different storage or handling procedures?

A: No. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, eliminating special storage, drying, or handling requirements. Standard component storage conditions apply to both parts.

Q: What is the significance of the different inventory levels?

A: The HMK316ABJ225KL-TE has substantially higher available inventory (51,344 pieces versus 700 pieces). This may provide supply chain advantages for high-volume replacement or repair programs, though the MSASH31LAB5225KTCA01 remains the preferred choice for new designs.

Q: Are both parts suitable for SMPS filtering applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are specified for SMPS filtering applications and carry identical electrical ratings (2.2 µF, 100V, X5R) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C) required for this application category.

Q: What export or regulatory considerations apply to these parts?

A: Both parts carry identical export classification (EAR99), ROHS3 compliance status, and REACH unaffected designation. No additional regulatory documentation or export licensing is required for either part.
