Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the T95R337M016CSSL is permissible when the following core parameters remain constant: capacitance value (330 µF), voltage rating (16 V), package type (2824), mounting configuration (surface mount), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The T95R337K016LSAL qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on these invariant specifications. Tolerance variation from ±20% to ±10% represents a tighter specification that does not compromise circuit functionality. ESR and conformal coating type remain identical across both parts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the T95R337M016CSSL and T95R337K016LSAL maintain Active product status and identical electrical performance characteristics. The primary distinction is tolerance specification: the substitute part T95R337K016LSAL provides ±10% tolerance compared to the main part's ±20% tolerance. This tighter tolerance in the substitute part does not introduce incompatibility and may provide improved capacitance stability in applications requiring stricter value control. RoHS compliance status differs between parts; the main part is RoHS3 compliant while the substitute is non-compliant. Selection should account for regulatory requirements specific to the end application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can T95R337K016LSAL replace T95R337M016CSSL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (330 µF), voltage rating (16 V), package dimensions (2824), ESR (55 mOhm), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The substitute part's tighter tolerance (±10% versus ±20%) does not create incompatibility.

Q: What is the significance of tolerance differences between these parts?

A: Tolerance defines the acceptable deviation from the nominal capacitance value. The substitute part's ±10% tolerance is more restrictive than the main part's ±20% tolerance, meaning capacitance values will be closer to the 330 µF specification. This does not affect interchangeability but may benefit applications sensitive to capacitance variation.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 2824 (7260 Metric) package with identical length (0.283" / 7.20mm), width (0.236" / 6.00mm), and maximum seated height (0.150" / 3.80mm). PCB footprints and assembly processes remain unchanged.

Q: What is the difference in RoHS compliance?

A: The main part T95R337M016CSSL is RoHS3 compliant. The substitute part T95R337K016LSAL is non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations must use the main part or verify regulatory exemptions.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated MSL 2A (4 Weeks), indicating identical moisture handling and storage requirements during assembly and deployment.
