T86C106M025ESSL Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The Vishay Sprague T86C106M025ESSL is a molded surface-mount tantalum capacitor from the TANTAMOUNT™ T86 series. This part offers 10 µF capacitance with a ±20% tolerance, rated for 25 V, featuring a 600mOhm maximum ESR, and is supplied in the 2312 (6032 metric) package. The component is marked as obsolete, which necessitates the identification of alternative models for continued production or maintenance support. Substitute selection is required for footprint, reliability, and supply continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution is based uniquely on maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within the provided parameters. The key parameters required for substitution include: capacitance (10 µF), tolerance (±20%), voltage rating (25 V), package type (2312 / 6032 metric), ESR (600mOhm), surface-mount form, identical size/dimensions, and equivalent manufacturer size code. Additional features, compliance, and product status are matched where directly stated. Only parts strictly matching these parameters are considered as direct substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Vishay Sprague T86C106M025ESSL is obsolete and not RoHS compliant. The KEMET T496C106M025ATE600 is active, ROHS3 compliant, and maintains identical electrical, mechanical, and packaging parameters. Both parts conform to the same MSL rating and REACH unaffected status. Certification and compliance should be verified against the application's specific requirements, particularly where RoHS or environmental directives are enforced.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What criteria are used to qualify T496C106M025ATE600 as a substitute for T86C106M025ESSL?
A: Qualification is based strictly on identical electrical ratings (capacitance, voltage, ESR, and tolerance), the same mounting type and footprint (2312/6032 metric), equivalent size and packaging, and matching extended operating temperatures.

Q: Are there compliance differences between T86C106M025ESSL and T496C106M025ATE600?
A: Yes, T86C106M025ESSL is RoHS non-compliant, while T496C106M025ATE600 is ROHS3 compliant. Both are REACH unaffected.

Q: Does the package size of T496C106M025ATE600 match the T86C106M025ESSL?
A: Yes, both parts use the 2312 (6032 metric) case and have identical size and height specifications.

Q: Is the KEMET T496C106M025ATE600 available in tape & reel packaging?
A: Yes, the T496C106M025ATE600 is supplied in tape & reel (TR) packaging.

Q: Which series should be specified for new designs, considering product status?
A: KEMET T496C106M025ATE600 is the active substitute for the obsolete Vishay T86C106M025ESSL within the stated parameters.

Q: Can the footprint and mounting process remain unchanged with this substitution?
A: Yes, since both capacitors share the 2312 (6032 metric) package and surface mount form, PCB footprint and assembly process compatibility are maintained.
