TAP336M016CCSY Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TAP336M016CCSY is a 33 µF conformal coated tantalum capacitor rated at 16 V with radial through-hole mounting. Manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, this component is part of the active TAP series and is designed for general-purpose applications requiring reliable energy storage in compact form factors. The part is ROHS3 compliant and maintains operational stability across -55°C to 125°C temperature ranges.

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts becomes necessary when managing inventory constraints, addressing supply chain disruptions, or optimizing component specifications for enhanced circuit performance while maintaining functional compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TAP336M016CCSY is determined by strict alignment across the following critical parameters:

Capacitance value must remain at 33 µF. Voltage rating must equal or exceed 16 V. Mounting type and package configuration must be identical (through-hole radial). Physical dimensions including diameter, height, and lead spacing must match to ensure PCB compatibility. ESR and operating temperature range must be maintained or improved. Type classification (conformal coated tantalum) must be preserved. RoHS and regulatory compliance status must be equivalent or superior.

The TAP336K016CCS qualifies as a direct substitute based on these criteria. Both parts share identical capacitance, voltage rating, physical dimensions, ESR, temperature range, and compliance certifications. The primary distinction is tolerance specification: TAP336K016CCS offers ±10% tolerance compared to the ±20% tolerance of the main part, representing a specification upgrade rather than a compromise.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TAP336M016CCSY and TAP336K016CCS maintain active product status with KYOCERA AVX and carry equivalent regulatory compliance certifications including ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on tolerance requirements specific to the application circuit.

The TAP336M016CCSY with ±20% tolerance is suitable for general-purpose applications where capacitance variation within this band does not impact circuit performance. The TAP336K016CCS with ±10% tolerance provides tighter capacitance control and is appropriate for circuits requiring more precise capacitance values or where tolerance stack-up across multiple components necessitates stricter individual component specifications.

Both parts are physically and electrically interchangeable on PCB layouts designed for radial through-hole tantalum capacitors with 5.00mm lead spacing and 6.00mm diameter footprints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP336K016CCS replace TAP336M016CCSY in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically compatible. They share identical capacitance, voltage rating, physical dimensions, ESR, and temperature operating range. The TAP336K016CCS offers improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%), making it a direct substitute without PCB or schematic modifications.

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

A: The tolerance specification differs. TAP336M016CCSY carries ±20% tolerance, while TAP336K016CCS carries ±10% tolerance. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance status, REACH unaffected designation, and equivalent regulatory certifications. No compliance trade-offs exist between these parts.

Q: Will the substitute part fit the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Both parts are radial through-hole components with identical physical dimensions: 0.236" diameter (6.00mm), 0.453" maximum seated height (11.50mm), and 0.197" lead spacing (5.00mm). PCB footprints designed for either part accommodate both without modification.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: For new designs, TAP336K016CCS is the preferred choice due to its tighter ±10% tolerance specification, which provides better capacitance accuracy and reduces tolerance-related circuit performance variation. Both parts are active products with stable supply availability.
