MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 is a 4.7 µF ceramic capacitor rated at 100V with X7S temperature coefficient, manufactured by Taiyo Yuden in 1210 (3225 Metric) package format. This multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) is designed for general purpose applications and is currently in active product status. The part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity protection.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary part experiences supply constraints, inventory limitations, or when design requirements permit alternative packaging formats or product series that maintain electrical and mechanical equivalence.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Capacitance: 4.7 µF
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Voltage Rating: 100V
• Temperature Coefficient: X7S
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Package / Case: 1210 (3225 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Physical Dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.098" W (3.20mm x 2.50mm)
• Maximum Thickness: 0.083" (2.10mm)

Compliance Parameters (Must Match):

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

Substitute parts may differ in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape & Digi-Reel), product series designation, and product status classification, provided all electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters remain identical. Application context may differ between the main part (General Purpose) and substitute parts (SMPS Filtering), but this does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01): Select the MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 for new designs requiring active product status with long-term availability assurance. This part carries Active product status from Taiyo Yuden, indicating ongoing manufacturing support and supply continuity. The Tape & Reel packaging format is optimized for high-volume automated assembly operations.

Substitute Part Selection (HMK325C7475MN-TE): The HMK325C7475MN-TE is electrically and mechanically equivalent and maintains full ROHS3 and REACH compliance. However, this part carries "Not For New Designs" status, indicating that Taiyo Yuden has transitioned this product line. Selection of this substitute is appropriate only when:

• Existing inventory must be utilized in ongoing production
• Supply of the primary part is unavailable
• Design modifications to accommodate Cut Tape & Digi-Reel packaging are acceptable

The difference in packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel versus Tape & Reel) may require adjustment to component handling and feeder equipment in automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 and HMK325C7475MN-TE electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated at 4.7 µF ±20% 100V with X7S temperature coefficient and -55°C to 125°C operating range. Electrical performance is identical across all specified parameters.

Q: Can HMK325C7475MN-TE be used in new product designs?

A: The HMK325C7475MN-TE carries "Not For New Designs" status from Taiyo Yuden. For new designs, the MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 with Active status is the appropriate selection to ensure long-term supply availability and manufacturing support.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape & Digi-Reel packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on reels, optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape & Digi-Reel packaging provides components on cut tape segments or alternative reel formats, typically used for lower-volume production or mixed-component assembly. Both formats contain identical components; the difference is in supply and handling format only.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 and HMK325C7475MN-TE are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Compliance certifications are identical.

Q: Can I substitute HMK325C7475MN-TE for MSASH32NSC7475MTCA01 in existing production?

A: Substitution is mechanically and electrically valid. However, the packaging format difference (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel versus Tape & Reel) may require adjustment to component feeder systems and assembly line configuration. Verify that your automated assembly equipment can accommodate the alternative packaging format before implementing substitution in production.

Q: What are the physical dimensions of both parts?

A: Both parts are identical in physical form: 0.126" L x 0.098" W (3.20mm x 2.50mm) with maximum thickness of 0.083" (2.10mm). PCB footprint and assembly clearances are identical.

Q: Are there any performance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts are manufactured by Taiyo Yuden with identical electrical specifications, temperature stability, voltage rating, and capacitance tolerance. Performance in circuit operation is equivalent.
