TAP335K050SCS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TAP335K050SCS is a 3.3 µF conformal coated tantalum capacitor rated for 50 V operation in a radial through-hole package. This component is manufactured by KYOCERA AVX and maintains active product status with full ROHS3 compliance. Substitute parts become necessary when design requirements permit lower voltage ratings, inventory constraints exist, or alternative electrical characteristics align with application specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TAP335K050SCS are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Identical capacitance value: 3.3 µF
• Identical tolerance: ±10%
• Identical type: Conformal Coated tantalum
• Identical mounting configuration: Through Hole Radial
• Identical lead spacing: 0.098" (2.50mm)
• Identical operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Identical series designation: TAP
• Identical compliance certifications: ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99

Voltage rating and ESR are the primary differentiating parameters. Substitute parts operate at lower voltage ratings (10 V and 16 V) compared to the primary part (50 V). These substitutes are applicable only when circuit design voltage requirements do not exceed the substitute part's rated voltage.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between TAP335K050SCS and its substitutes depends on circuit voltage requirements:

TAP335K050SCS is specified for applications requiring 50 V rated voltage with 3 Ohm ESR performance.

TAP335K010SCS operates at 10 V rated voltage and exhibits 10 Ohm ESR. This part is suitable only for circuits where the maximum operating voltage does not exceed 10 V.

TAP335K016SCS operates at 16 V rated voltage and exhibits 6 Ohm ESR. This part is suitable only for circuits where the maximum operating voltage does not exceed 16 V.

All parts share identical capacitance, tolerance, temperature range, and mechanical compatibility. Substitution is valid only when the application voltage specification permits operation at the lower rated voltage of the substitute part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP335K010SCS or TAP335K016SCS be used in place of TAP335K050SCS?

A: Substitution is valid only if the circuit design voltage does not exceed the substitute part's rated voltage. TAP335K010SCS is limited to 10 V maximum; TAP335K016SCS is limited to 16 V maximum. Using a lower-rated part in a higher-voltage circuit creates reliability risk.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: No. TAP335K050SCS has a larger case size (0.236" Dia, 0.394" Height) compared to TAP335K010SCS and TAP335K016SCS (both 0.177" Dia, 0.276" Height). Lead spacing remains identical at 0.098" (2.50mm) across all parts.

Q: What is the significance of ESR differences?

A: ESR values differ: TAP335K050SCS (3 Ohm), TAP335K016SCS (6 Ohm), and TAP335K010SCS (10 Ohm). Higher ESR may affect circuit performance in applications sensitive to impedance characteristics. Verify ESR compatibility with circuit requirements before substitution.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: What inventory status applies to these parts?

A: TAP335K050SCS has 1093 pieces in stock; TAP335K010SCS has 3057 pieces; TAP335K016SCS has 2640 pieces. All are listed as new original stock.
