Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the T86C106K016EBAS is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Capacitance: 10 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 16 V (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 2312 (6032 Metric) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (exact match required)

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: the 293D106X9016C2TE3 (direct equivalent, active status) and the T83C106K016EZZL (manufacturer-recommended alternative, active status). Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the allowed parameter set.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 293D106X9016C2TE3 serves as the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete T86C106K016EBAS. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The 293D106X9016C2TE3 holds active product status and achieves ROHS3 compliance, providing regulatory advantage for new designs. Inventory availability is higher for the 293D106X9016C2TE3 (3228 pcs) compared to the main part (1072 pcs).

The T83C106K016EZZL is designated as the manufacturer-recommended alternative. While maintaining all core electrical and mechanical parameters, it features a significantly lower ESR of 450 mOhm compared to 1.8 Ohm in both the main part and direct equivalent. This lower ESR characteristic may provide performance benefits in applications sensitive to impedance characteristics, though it does not alter fundamental substitution eligibility. The T83C106K016EZZL retains active product status but does not achieve ROHS3 compliance.

For procurement of replacement components, the 293D106X9016C2TE3 is the primary recommendation due to active status, regulatory compliance, and direct parameter equivalence. The T83C106K016EZZL remains a valid alternative where lower ESR performance is beneficial and RoHS3 compliance is not a requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 293D106X9016C2TE3 be used as a direct replacement for the T86C106K016EBAS?

A: Yes. The 293D106X9016C2TE3 maintains identical capacitance (10 µF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (16 V), package (2312/6032 Metric), mounting type (Surface Mount), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and moisture sensitivity level (1). All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between the 293D106X9016C2TE3 and T83C106K016EZZL?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent across all core parameters. The primary difference is ESR: the 293D106X9016C2TE3 has 1.8 Ohm ESR (matching the original), while the T83C106K016EZZL has 450 mOhm ESR. Additionally, the 293D106X9016C2TE3 achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the T83C106K016EZZL does not.

Q: Why is the T86C106K016EBAS obsolete?

A: The T86C106K016EBAS is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The 293D106X9016C2TE3 and T83C106K016EZZL represent active alternatives within the TANTAMOUNT™ product line.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The main part (T86C106K016EBAS) does not specify packaging format. The 293D106X9016C2TE3 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. The T83C106K016EZZL is also supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Physical dimensions and height specifications are equivalent across all three parts.

Q: Which substitute should I select for a new design?

A: The 293D106X9016C2TE3 is recommended for new designs due to active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and direct parameter equivalence. Select the T83C106K016EZZL only if the lower ESR characteristic (450 mOhm) provides specific performance benefits for your application.
