T97R106M075ESS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The T97R106M075ESS is a 10 µF conformal coated tantalum capacitor manufactured by Vishay Sprague, rated for 75 V operation. This component belongs to the TANTAMOUNT™ T97 series and is designed for surface mount applications in the 3024 (7660 Metric) package. The part is currently active in production with 815 units available in stock. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, design optimization for tighter tolerances, or application-specific compliance requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the T97R106M075ESS is based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant or compatible:

• Capacitance Value: 10 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 75 V (minimum requirement; higher ratings are acceptable)
• Package / Case: 3024 (7660 Metric) (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (assembly process compatibility)
• ESR: 500 mOhm (electrical performance specification)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 85°C (thermal compatibility)
• Type: Conformal Coated (environmental protection specification)

The T97R106K075LSA qualifies as a parametric equivalent because it maintains all critical parameters while offering an improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the T97R106M075ESS and T97R106K075LSA are active production components from Vishay Sprague with identical compliance profiles. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

T97R106M075ESS is appropriate when:

• Design specifications allow ±20% capacitance tolerance
• Cost optimization is a primary consideration
• Inventory availability is critical (815 units in stock)

T97R106K075LSA is appropriate when:

• Circuit design requires tighter capacitance tolerance (±10%)
• Higher inventory availability is beneficial (1,738 units in stock)
• Design margin improvement justifies component selection

Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliance status and REACH unaffected classification. No compliance advantage exists between the two options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can T97R106K075LSA be used as a direct replacement for T97R106M075ESS?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (10 µF, 75 V, 500 mOhm ESR), physical dimensions (3024 package), and operating characteristics (-55°C to 85°C). The substitute part offers improved tolerance (±10% versus ±20%), making it functionally compatible in all applications where the main part is specified.

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

A: The T97R106M075ESS allows capacitance variation of ±20% (8 µF to 12 µF), while the T97R106K075LSA restricts variation to ±10% (9 µF to 11 µF). Applications with strict capacitance requirements benefit from the tighter tolerance of the substitute part.

Q: Are the physical packages identical?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 3024 (7660 Metric) package with identical dimensions: 0.299" L x 0.236" W (7.60mm x 6.00mm) and maximum seated height of 0.157" (4.00mm). PCB layout and assembly processes require no modification.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: No. Both parts carry identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 2A (4 Weeks), requiring identical storage and handling protocols.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: T97R106M075ESS has 815 units in stock, while T97R106K075LSA has 1,738 units in stock. Both are active production components.
