Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the T520B686M006ATE0707622 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 68 µF (exact match required)
  • Voltage rating: 6.3 V (exact match required)
  • ESR specification: 70 mOhm @ 100kHz (exact match required)
  • Package / Case: 1411 (3528 Metric) (exact match required)
  • Mounting type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C (exact match required)
  • Lifetime specification: 2000 Hours @ 105°C (exact match required)

The identified substitute part T520B686M006ATE070 meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable for direct replacement applications.
