Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the T97F226M063ESA are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Capacitance: 22 µF
• Voltage Rating: 63 V
• ESR: 250 mOhm
• Type: Conformal Coated
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 85°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Package / Case: 3024 (7660 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Physical Dimensions: 0.299" L × 0.236" W (7.60 mm × 6.00 mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.201" (5.10 mm)

Allowable Variation:

• Tolerance: The main part specifies ±20%. Substitute parts with ±10% tolerance are acceptable as they represent tighter tolerance specifications within the same electrical performance envelope.

Packaging Format Variation:

• Substitute parts may be supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® or Tape & Reel (TR) formats. Both formats are compatible for the same circuit application.

All three substitute parts (T97F226K063EAB, T97F226K063LSA, T97F226K063LSB) meet these criteria and are direct functional equivalents.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are functionally equivalent to the T97F226M063ESA and are suitable for direct replacement in circuit applications. Selection among the substitutes should be based on the following factors:

Tolerance Consideration: The substitute parts feature ±10% tolerance compared to the main part's ±20% tolerance. This tighter tolerance specification provides improved capacitance accuracy and may be beneficial for applications with stringent circuit performance requirements.

Packaging Format: T97F226K063EAB is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format, suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly operations. T97F226K063LSA and T97F226K063LSB are supplied in standard Tape & Reel (TR) format. Selection depends on assembly line equipment compatibility.

Availability: T97F226K063LSA offers the highest inventory level (2451 pieces), followed by T97F226K063EAB (1640 pieces) and T97F226K063LSB (895 pieces). Inventory levels should be considered for supply chain continuity.

Compliance Status: All parts are RoHS non-compliant and carry ECCN EAR99 classification. T97F226K063EAB is REACH Affected; T97F226K063LSA is REACH Unaffected. Regulatory requirements for the end application should guide selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can T97F226K063EAB, T97F226K063LSA, or T97F226K063LSB be used as direct replacements for T97F226M063ESA?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts are direct functional equivalents. They share identical electrical specifications (22 µF, 63 V, 250 mOhm ESR), mechanical dimensions, and operating characteristics. The primary differences are tolerance specification (±10% vs. ±20%) and packaging format.

Q: What is the significance of the tolerance difference between ±20% and ±10%?

A: Tolerance defines the allowable deviation of actual capacitance from the nominal value. The main part T97F226M063ESA allows ±20% deviation (17.6 µF to 26.4 µF). Substitute parts with ±10% tolerance (19.8 µF to 24.2 µF) provide tighter capacitance accuracy. For applications requiring precise capacitance values, the ±10% tolerance substitutes are preferable.

Q: Are the packaging format differences (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel) significant?

A: Packaging format affects assembly line compatibility and handling. Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format (T97F226K063EAB) is optimized for automated pick-and-place equipment. Standard Tape & Reel (TR) format (T97F226K063LSA and T97F226K063LSB) is compatible with conventional reel-fed assembly systems. Selection should match your manufacturing equipment capabilities.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: Yes. All parts, including the main part T97F226M063ESA, are rated at MSL 2A (4 Weeks), indicating identical moisture sensitivity and storage requirements.

Q: What is the difference between REACH Affected and REACH Unaffected status?

A: REACH Affected status (T97F226K063EAB) indicates the part contains substances subject to REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) regulations. REACH Unaffected status (T97F226K063LSA) indicates the part does not contain regulated substances. Selection depends on regulatory requirements for your end market.

Q: Are all substitute parts currently in active production?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts (T97F226K063EAB, T97F226K063LSA, T97F226K063LSB) maintain Active product status with Vishay Sprague, ensuring long-term availability and supply continuity.
