TAC106K035P06-F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TAC106K035P06-F is a 10 µF molded tantalum capacitor rated at 35 V with axial through-hole mounting, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. The part operates across a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and meets ROHS3 compliance requirements. Identifying qualified substitutes ensures design flexibility and supply chain reliability for applications requiring this capacitance and voltage specification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TAC106K035P06-F is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 10 µF
• Voltage Rating: 35 V
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Type: Molded Tantalum
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Axial
• Physical Dimensions: 0.180" Dia x 0.420" L (4.57mm x 10.67mm)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

All three substitute parts meet these criteria. The substitutes are sourced from active product lines (Vishay Sprague TANTALEX™ 173D series and KEMET T322 series), providing improved supply availability compared to the obsolete CDE TAC series. Packaging variations (Cut Tape versus Bulk) do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Vishay Sprague 173D106X9035XWE3 is the primary substitute option. This part is in active production status with the highest inventory availability (5489 pcs), ensuring reliable procurement. It maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the TAC106K035P06-F while offering superior supply chain continuity. The TANTALEX™ 173D series represents current-generation tantalum capacitor technology with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

Vishay Sprague 173D106X9035XE3 serves as a secondary substitute with identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions. Inventory availability (1378 pcs) is adequate for most applications. This variant differs only in packaging format (Cut Tape versus the primary option's standard format).

KEMET T322D106K035AT is a tertiary substitute option. While electrically and mechanically equivalent, this part specifies an ESR of 2 Ohm, a parameter not provided for the original TAC106K035P06-F. The T322 series is in active production with sufficient inventory (1318 pcs). Selection of this substitute should be based on application-specific ESR requirements if low impedance characteristics are critical.

All three substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for direct replacement in through-hole PCB applications requiring 10 µF at 35 V with ±10% tolerance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TAC106K035P06-F be directly replaced with any of these substitutes?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. They share identical capacitance (10 µF), voltage rating (35 V), tolerance (±10%), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), physical dimensions (0.180" Dia x 0.420" L), and mounting configuration (axial through-hole). Direct PCB substitution is supported without circuit modification.

Q: What is the difference between the two Vishay Sprague options?

A: Both 173D106X9035XE3 and 173D106X9035XWE3 are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format: 173D106X9035XE3 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT), while 173D106X9035XWE3 is also in Cut Tape format. Selection depends on procurement and assembly requirements. The 173D106X9035XWE3 has higher inventory availability.

Q: Why does the KEMET T322D106K035AT specify an ESR of 2 Ohm while others do not?

A: ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) is a measured parameter that varies by manufacturer and production process. The KEMET T322 series provides this specification; the original TAC106K035P06-F and Vishay Sprague 173D series do not list ESR in the provided data. If ESR is critical for your application, the KEMET part's 2 Ohm specification may be advantageous for low-impedance circuit requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: All four parts are ROHS3 compliant. The Vishay Sprague substitutes carry REACH Unaffected status, while the original CDE part and KEMET substitute do not specify REACH status in the provided data. For applications requiring REACH compliance documentation, the Vishay Sprague options are preferred.

Q: What is the significance of the "Moisture Sensitivity Level" difference?

A: The original TAC106K035P06-F specifies MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. The Vishay Sprague and KEMET substitutes list MSL as Not Applicable, which is consistent with molded tantalum capacitor construction. This difference does not affect substitution compatibility or handling requirements.

Q: Can I use these substitutes in new designs, or only for replacement of obsolete parts?

A: These substitutes are suitable for both new designs and obsolete part replacement. The Vishay Sprague 173D and KEMET T322 series are active production lines with long-term availability, making them appropriate for ongoing design use.
