Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the T95R337K016CSAL is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 330 µF
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Rated voltage: 16 V
• Type: Conformal Coated
• ESR: 55 mOhm
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 2824 (7260 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.283" L x 0.236" W (7.20 mm x 6.00 mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.150" (3.80 mm)
• Manufacturer Size Code: R
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2A (4 Weeks)

The identified substitute part T95R337K016LSAL matches all electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. Differences in RoHS compliance status do not affect functional equivalence and must be evaluated based on end-application regulatory requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the T95R337K016CSAL and T95R337K016LSAL are active production parts from Vishay Sprague with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts must be based on regulatory compliance requirements specific to the end application.

The T95R337K016CSAL carries ROHS3 compliance certification, making it the appropriate choice for applications subject to RoHS directives or customer specifications requiring RoHS compliance.

The T95R337K016LSAL is RoHS non-compliant and should be selected only when RoHS compliance is not a requirement or when specific application constraints necessitate this variant.

Both parts maintain equivalent performance characteristics, including 55 mOhm ESR, high reliability ratings, and COTS qualification. Inventory availability and lead time considerations may also influence part selection between these functionally equivalent options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can T95R337K016LSAL be used as a direct replacement for T95R337K016CSAL?

A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Both parts are identical in capacitance (330 µF), voltage rating (16 V), ESR (55 mOhm), package dimensions (2824 / 7260 Metric), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. Substitution is permissible only when RoHS compliance is not a regulatory or contractual requirement.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: RoHS3 compliance indicates the part meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances directives applicable to electrical and electronic equipment. Applications subject to EU regulations, customer specifications, or industry standards requiring RoHS compliance must use the T95R337K016CSAL. Non-compliant variants may be used in applications without such requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 2824 (7260 Metric) package with identical dimensions: 0.283" L x 0.236" W (7.20 mm x 6.00 mm) and maximum seated height of 0.150" (3.80 mm). PCB layout and assembly considerations are identical.

Q: Do these parts have the same moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 2A (4 Weeks) rating, requiring identical storage and handling protocols to prevent moisture absorption prior to reflow soldering.

Q: What is the ESR specification and why is it important?

A: Both parts specify 55 mOhm ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance). ESR affects ripple current handling, transient response, and thermal performance in the circuit. Identical ESR values ensure equivalent electrical behavior in filtering and energy storage applications.
