Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TAP225K016HSB is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 2.2 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 16 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Type: Conformal Coated (exact match required)
• ESR: 8 Ohm (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime specification: 1000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package: Radial (exact match required)
• Diameter: 0.177" (4.50 mm) (exact match required)
• Height: 0.335" (8.50 mm) (exact match required)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

The TAP225K016CCS meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TAP225K016HSB and TAP225K016CCS are active production components manufactured by KYOCERA AVX with identical electrical specifications and ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory availability: TAP225K016CCS offers higher stock levels (2087 units versus 704 units)
• Lead spacing: TAP225K016HSB features 0.250" (6.35 mm) lead spacing, while TAP225K016CCS features 0.197" (5.00 mm) lead spacing. PCB layout and hole spacing must accommodate the selected lead spacing
• Procurement lead time and supply chain requirements

Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance requirements and environmental compliance standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP225K016CCS be used as a direct replacement for TAP225K016HSB?

A: TAP225K016CCS is electrically and mechanically equivalent with one exception: lead spacing differs (0.197" versus 0.250"). PCB hole spacing must be verified for compatibility before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of lead spacing differences?

A: Lead spacing determines the distance between component leads on the PCB. The TAP225K016HSB uses 0.250" (6.35 mm) spacing, while TAP225K016CCS uses 0.197" (5.00 mm) spacing. PCB layouts are designed for specific lead spacing; mismatched spacing will result in improper fit or require PCB modification.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both TAP225K016HSB and TAP225K016CCS are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Capacitance (2.2 µF), voltage rating (16 V), tolerance (±10%), type (conformal coated), ESR (8 Ohm), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and lifetime specification (1000 Hrs @ 85°C) must all match exactly.

Q: Why would I choose one part over the other if they are electrically identical?

A: Selection is driven by inventory availability, PCB layout compatibility with lead spacing, and procurement requirements. TAP225K016CCS offers higher stock availability, while TAP225K016HSB may be preferred if PCB design specifies 0.250" lead spacing.
