TAC106K006P02

Part Overview

The TAC106K006P02 is a 10 µF molded tantalum capacitor rated at 6 V, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) in the TAC series. This component features an axial through-hole configuration with dimensions of 0.110" diameter × 0.290" length (2.79mm × 7.37mm) and operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part carries an obsolete product status, necessitating identification of active equivalent and substitute components for ongoing design support and supply continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution logic is based on the following parameters: capacitance (10 µF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (6 V), physical dimensions (0.110" Dia × 0.290" L), mounting type (through hole, axial), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C).

Direct Equivalents are parts that match all key parameters across capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, dimensions, and mounting configuration. These parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the original TAC106K006P02.

Upgrade Options include parts with enhanced specifications such as higher voltage ratings (10 V) or tighter tolerances (±5%), maintaining the same capacitance and physical form factor. These upgrades provide improved performance margins while maintaining mechanical compatibility.

Similar Alternatives include parts that meet the core electrical and mechanical specifications but may feature different packaging options or RoHS compliance status. These alternatives are electrically compatible but may require verification of packaging and handling requirements for your application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For direct replacement applications requiring identical electrical and mechanical characteristics, the 173D106X9006V, 173D106X9006VW, and T322B106K006AS parts maintain full compatibility with the TAC106K006P02. All three options carry active product status, ensuring long-term availability.

For applications where higher voltage margin is beneficial, the 173D106X5010V, 173D106X9010VW, and T322B106K010AS parts provide 10 V ratings while maintaining 10 µF capacitance, equivalent tolerance, and identical physical dimensions. These upgrades introduce no mechanical incompatibility.

For new designs or applications requiring RoHS compliance, the 173D106X9006VE3, 173D106X9006VWE3, and T322B106K006AT parts provide direct electrical and mechanical equivalence to the original component while meeting ROHS3 compliance requirements.

Selection between Vishay Sprague and KEMET manufacturers should consider packaging requirements: Tape & Box or Tape & Reel packaging for Vishay Sprague components, and Bulk packaging for KEMET components. The KEMET T322 series provides specified ESR values (6Ω at 6 V, 5Ω at 10 V), which may be relevant for applications with low-impedance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 10 V rated capacitor instead of a 6 V rated capacitor? A: Yes. The 173D106X5010V and 173D106X9010VW (10 V rating) are mechanically and electrically compatible with the original 6 V specification. Higher voltage ratings provide additional safety margin in the same physical form factor.

Q: What is the difference between the Vishay Sprague 173D106X9006V and 173D106X9006VW part numbers? A: Both parts are electrically identical 10 µF, 6 V capacitors with identical physical dimensions. The difference is packaging: 173D106X9006V is supplied in Tape & Box format, while 173D106X9006VW is supplied in Tape & Reel format. Select based on your assembly process requirements.

Q: Are the KEMET T322B106K006AS and T322B106K006AT parts interchangeable? A: Yes, both parts have identical electrical specifications (10 µF, ±10%, 6 V) and physical dimensions. The T322B106K006AT includes ROHS3 compliance certification, while the T322B106K006AS does not.

Q: What does ESR mean, and does it matter for my application? A: ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) is an internal resistance specification provided for KEMET parts (6Ω for 6 V ratings, 5Ω for 10 V ratings). For general-purpose applications, ESR is not a primary selection criterion unless your circuit requires low-impedance filtering or high-frequency performance.

Q: Why is the original TAC106K006P02 marked as obsolete? A: The Cornell Dubilier Electronics TAC106K006P02 has been discontinued. All substitute parts listed carry active product status and are currently manufactured, ensuring availability for new orders and long-term supply.

Q: Can I substitute a ±5% tolerance part for a ±10% tolerance part? A: Yes. The 173D106X5010V provides tighter ±5% tolerance with higher voltage rating, maintaining mechanical compatibility. Tighter tolerance specifications do not create incompatibility with circuits designed for ±10% tolerance.
