Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TAP104M035SRW is permissible when the following core electrical and mechanical parameters remain constant or improve:

• Capacitance value: 0.1 µF (fixed requirement)
• Voltage rating: 35 V minimum (no downrating)
• Type: Conformal Coated tantalum (fixed requirement)
• ESR: 26 Ohm (fixed requirement)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C (fixed requirement)
• Mounting type: Through Hole radial (fixed requirement)
• Physical dimensions: 0.177" Dia (4.50 mm), Height 0.276" (7.00 mm), Lead spacing 0.098" (2.50 mm) (fixed requirement)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (fixed requirement)

Tolerance specification may be tightened from ±20% to ±10% without affecting circuit functionality, as this represents improved accuracy. Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) does not affect electrical performance and may be selected based on procurement and assembly requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TAP104K035SRW qualifies as a direct substitute for the TAP104M035SRW based on electrical equivalence and mechanical compatibility. Both components maintain Active product status from KYOCERA AVX and satisfy ROHS3 compliance requirements. The primary distinction is tolerance specification: TAP104K035SRW provides ±10% tolerance compared to ±20% for the main part, representing improved capacitance accuracy without introducing any compatibility concerns.

Packaging format differs between the two parts (Tape & Reel for TAP104M035SRW versus Cut Tape for TAP104K035SRW). This distinction affects procurement and assembly logistics but does not impact electrical performance or circuit functionality. Selection between these formats should be determined by manufacturing process requirements and inventory management practices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP104K035SRW replace TAP104M035SRW in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (0.1 µF, 35 V, 26 Ohm ESR, conformal coated tantalum type) and mechanical dimensions (0.177" Dia, 0.276" height, 0.098" lead spacing). The tighter ±10% tolerance of TAP104K035SRW does not create compatibility issues and may improve circuit performance in tolerance-sensitive applications.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on reels, suitable for high-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides components on shorter tape segments, typically used for lower-volume orders or manual assembly processes. Both formats contain identical components; packaging selection depends on production volume and assembly equipment.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both TAP104M035SRW and TAP104K035SRW are ROHS3 Compliant, meeting regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions in electronic equipment.

Q: Does tolerance difference affect circuit design?

A: The tolerance difference (±20% versus ±10%) does not affect circuit compatibility. TAP104K035SRW with tighter tolerance may provide improved performance in applications where capacitance accuracy is critical, but both parts are electrically interchangeable for general-purpose applications.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components have identical radial package dimensions: 0.177" diameter (4.50 mm), maximum seated height of 0.276" (7.00 mm), and lead spacing of 0.098" (2.50 mm). PCB layout and mechanical clearance requirements are identical for both parts.
