TAP225K010SCS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TAP225K010SCS is a 2.2 µF conformal coated tantalum capacitor rated at 10 V with radial through-hole mounting. Manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, this component is part of the active TAP series and is ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when circuit requirements allow for higher voltage ratings while maintaining identical capacitance, tolerance, physical dimensions, and mounting characteristics. Higher voltage-rated alternatives provide enhanced design margin and improved reliability in applications where voltage headroom is available.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the TAP225K010SCS is determined by the following criteria:

• Capacitance: Must remain 2.2 µF (no variation allowed)
• Tolerance: Must remain ±10% (no variation allowed)
• Type: Must remain Conformal Coated (no variation allowed)
• Mounting Type: Must remain Through Hole (no variation allowed)
• Package / Case: Must remain Radial (no variation allowed)
• Physical Dimensions: Must match 0.177" Dia (4.50mm) and 0.276" (7.00mm) height (no variation allowed)
• Lead Spacing: Must remain 0.098" (2.50mm) (no variation allowed)
• Operating Temperature Range: Must remain -55°C ~ 125°C (no variation allowed)
• Voltage - Rated: May be increased above 10 V while maintaining all other parameters

Substitute parts are higher voltage-rated variants of the same physical and electrical family, allowing direct replacement in applications where the circuit voltage does not exceed the substitute part's rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain identical physical form factor, capacitance value, tolerance, and operating temperature range as the TAP225K010SCS. Each substitute part is manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, carries Active product status, and is ROHS3 compliant. Selection between the main part and substitutes depends solely on circuit voltage requirements. The TAP225K010SCS is suitable for applications with maximum circuit voltage of 10 V. Higher voltage-rated substitutes (TAP225K016SCS, TAP225K020SCS, TAP225K025SCS) are suitable for circuits with correspondingly higher voltage levels while providing identical capacitance performance. ESR values decrease with increasing voltage rating, offering improved performance characteristics in higher voltage applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP225K016SCS, TAP225K020SCS, or TAP225K025SCS be used as direct replacements for TAP225K010SCS?

A: Yes, these parts are direct mechanical and electrical replacements when circuit voltage does not exceed the substitute part's rated voltage. All parts share identical capacitance (2.2 µF), tolerance (±10%), physical dimensions, lead spacing, and mounting type.

Q: What is the primary difference between TAP225K010SCS and its substitutes?

A: The rated voltage differs. TAP225K010SCS is rated at 10 V, while substitutes are rated at 16 V, 20 V, or 25 V. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain constant.

Q: Does using a higher voltage-rated substitute affect circuit performance?

A: No. The capacitance value, tolerance, and operating temperature range are identical. Higher voltage rating provides additional design margin without changing the component's functional behavior in the circuit.

Q: Are all parts in the same physical package?

A: Yes. All parts use identical radial through-hole packaging with 0.177" diameter (4.50mm), 0.276" maximum seated height (7.00mm), and 0.098" lead spacing (2.50mm).

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all parts in this group?

A: All parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. All carry Active product status from KYOCERA AVX.
