Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the T520B336M008ASE040 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

  • Capacitance: 33 µF (exact match required)
  • Voltage Rating: 8 V (exact match required)
  • Package / Case: 1411 (3528 Metric) (exact match required)
  • ESR: 40 mOhm @ 100 kHz (exact match required)
  • Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)

The T520B336M008ATE040 qualifies as a direct substitute. This part maintains identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions while differing only in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus bulk packaging) and product status (Active versus Obsolete). The substitution is valid for applications requiring the specified capacitance, voltage, and performance characteristics.
