Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TAP226M025FCS is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must be 22 µF (no deviation permitted)
• Voltage Rating: Must be 25 V or higher (equal or superior rating required)
• Mounting Configuration: Must be Through Hole Radial (identical mechanical interface)
• Physical Dimensions: Package diameter, height, and lead spacing must match or be compatible with PCB layout
• ESR: Must be 1.5 Ohm or lower (equal or superior electrical performance)
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C to 125°C minimum
• Conformal Coating: Must maintain conformal coated specification for environmental protection
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance and equivalent regulatory status

The TAP226K025CCS qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters, with the primary distinction being improved tolerance specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TAP226M025FCS and TAP226K025CCS maintain Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and equivalent regulatory standing. The TAP226K025CCS provides improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%), which may be advantageous in applications requiring tighter capacitance accuracy. Both parts are manufactured by KYOCERA AVX and share identical electrical performance characteristics, physical dimensions, and environmental ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on tolerance requirements and application-specific accuracy specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP226K025CCS replace TAP226M025FCS in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance, voltage rating, ESR, physical dimensions, mounting configuration, and operating temperature range. The substitute offers improved tolerance specification without requiring design modifications.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The TAP226K025CCS features ±10% tolerance compared to the ±20% tolerance of the TAP226M025FCS. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are the physical footprints identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical package diameter (0.276" / 7.00 mm), height (0.472" / 12.00 mm), and lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm). PCB layout compatibility is maintained.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under identical ECCN and HTSUS codes.

Q: Which part should be selected for tolerance-sensitive applications?

A: The TAP226K025CCS with ±10% tolerance is suitable for applications requiring tighter capacitance accuracy. The TAP226M025FCS with ±20% tolerance is appropriate for general-purpose applications with broader tolerance margins.
