Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TAP226M016GSB is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Capacitance: 22 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 16 V (exact match required)
• Type: Conformal Coated (exact match required)
• ESR: 2 Ohm (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime @ Temp.: 1000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial (exact match required)
• Diameter: 0.236" (6.00mm) (exact match required)
• Height: 0.453" (11.50mm) (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

The identified substitute TAP226M016CCS meets all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary difference is lead spacing, which varies from 0.125" (3.18mm) on the main part to 0.197" (5.00mm) on the substitute. This difference requires PCB layout verification before implementation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TAP226M016GSB and TAP226M016CCS are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on PCB layout requirements. The TAP226M016GSB features 0.125" (3.18mm) lead spacing, while the TAP226M016CCS provides 0.197" (5.00mm) lead spacing. All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical, ensuring functional equivalence when lead spacing accommodates the PCB design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP226M016CCS replace TAP226M016GSB directly on the PCB?

A: Electrical substitution is valid. However, the lead spacing differs (0.125" vs. 0.197"), requiring PCB layout verification. Hole spacing on the printed circuit board must accommodate the 5.00mm lead spacing of the TAP226M016CCS before implementation.

Q: Are the capacitance and voltage ratings identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated 22 µF at 16 V with ±20% tolerance. Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of conformal coating on these parts?

A: Conformal coating provides environmental protection. Both the TAP226M016GSB and TAP226M016CCS feature conformal coating, maintaining equivalent protection characteristics.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these capacitors?

A: Both parts operate across -55°C to 125°C with a lifetime specification of 1000 hours at 85°C.
