TAP226M035SCS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TAP226M035SCS is a 22 µF conformal coated tantalum capacitor rated for 35 V operation in a radial through-hole package. Manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, this component is classified as Active product status and is suitable for general-purpose applications requiring reliable energy storage in compact form factors. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, application voltage derating requirements, or specific size limitations in circuit board layouts.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The TAP226M010SCS qualifies as a manufacturer-recommended substitute based on the following matching parameters:

• Capacitance: 22 µF (identical)
• Tolerance: ±20% (identical)
• Type: Conformal Coated (identical)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (identical)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (identical)
• Package / Case: Radial (identical)
• Series: TAP (identical)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)

The primary difference is the voltage rating: TAP226M010SCS is rated for 10 V versus the 35 V rating of TAP226M035SCS. This substitution is valid only in applications where the circuit voltage does not exceed 10 V, as voltage derating is a standard engineering practice for capacitor selection.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TAP226M035SCS and TAP226M010SCS maintain Active product status and full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH regulations. Selection between these parts depends on circuit voltage requirements. The TAP226M035SCS provides higher voltage margin for applications operating at or near 35 V. The TAP226M010SCS is suitable for circuits with maximum operating voltages at or below 10 V and offers a smaller physical footprint (0.217" diameter versus 0.335" diameter) with reduced height (0.354" versus 0.492"), which may be advantageous in space-constrained designs. The ESR difference (1.3 Ohm versus 2.7 Ohm) should be evaluated against ripple current and thermal performance requirements specific to the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP226M010SCS be used in place of TAP226M035SCS in all applications?

A: No. The TAP226M010SCS is rated for 10 V maximum, while TAP226M035SCS is rated for 35 V. Substitution is valid only when the circuit operating voltage does not exceed 10 V.

Q: What is the physical size difference between these parts?

A: TAP226M035SCS has a diameter of 0.335" (8.50mm) and height of 0.492" (12.50mm). TAP226M010SCS has a diameter of 0.217" (5.50mm) and height of 0.354" (9.00mm). Both maintain identical lead spacing of 0.098" (2.50mm).

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both TAP226M035SCS and TAP226M010SCS are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected.

Q: How do the ESR values differ, and does this matter?

A: TAP226M035SCS has an ESR of 1.3 Ohm, while TAP226M010SCS has an ESR of 2.7 Ohm. Higher ESR increases heat dissipation under ripple current conditions. Applications with high ripple current or strict thermal budgets should account for this difference.

Q: Are both parts conformal coated?

A: Yes. Both TAP226M035SCS and TAP226M010SCS are conformal coated tantalum capacitors suitable for general-purpose applications.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for both parts?

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