Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection: The MSASH31LAB5225MTCA01 is the recommended selection for new designs. This part carries Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturer support and availability. It maintains full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

Substitute Part Selection: The HMK316ABJ225ML-TE serves as a direct parametric equivalent for applications where the primary part is unavailable. Although designated as "Not For New Designs," this substitute maintains complete electrical and mechanical compatibility with the MSASH31LAB5225MTCA01. Both parts are manufactured by Taiyo Yuden and share identical specifications across capacitance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, package dimensions, and compliance certifications. The substitute part is suitable for replacement in existing designs, legacy system support, and inventory management scenarios where the primary part cannot be sourced.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HMK316ABJ225ML-TE be used as a direct replacement for MSASH31LAB5225MTCA01 in PCB assembly?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical specifications (2.2 µF, 100V, X5R), physical dimensions (1206 package, 3.20mm x 1.60mm), and mounting characteristics (surface mount MLCC). No PCB layout modifications are required.

Q: Are there differences in performance between the primary part and substitute?

A: No. The parts are parametrically equivalent across all provided specifications: capacitance tolerance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on HMK316ABJ225ML-TE?

A: This designation indicates the substitute part is in a mature or transitional phase of its product lifecycle. It remains fully functional and compliant but may have limited long-term availability. For new product development, the Active-status MSASH31LAB5225MTCA01 is preferred to ensure sustained supply chain support.

Q: Are both parts suitable for SMPS filtering applications?

A: Yes. Both the MSASH31LAB5225MTCA01 and HMK316ABJ225ML-TE are specified for SMPS filtering applications and maintain the same electrical performance characteristics required for this use case.

Q: Do the parts have identical moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between the parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 ECCN classification.
