TAP475M010DCS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TAP475M010DCS is a 4.7 µF conformal coated tantalum capacitor rated at 10 V with ±20% tolerance, manufactured by KYOCERA AVX in the TAP series. This through-hole radial component is designed for general-purpose applications requiring reliable energy storage in compact form factors. The part is currently active in production with 701 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when electrical parameters (capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance) and mechanical specifications (package type, mounting configuration) align within acceptable engineering tolerances for the intended application.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TAP475M010DCS are classified based on alignment with the following critical parameters:

Direct Equivalent (Same Electrical & Mechanical Specifications):

• Capacitance: 4.7 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 10 V (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole Radial (exact match required)
• Type: Conformal Coated (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)

Upgrade Substitutes (Enhanced Performance Parameters):

• Tolerance improvement from ±20% to ±10% (tighter tolerance specification)
• Voltage rating increase from 10 V to 25 V (higher voltage capability)
• ESR reduction from 8 Ohm to 4 Ohm (lower equivalent series resistance)

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, conformal coating type, and through-hole radial mounting configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TAP475M010SCS serves as a direct functional equivalent to TAP475M010DCS with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both parts maintain ±20% tolerance, 10 V rating, 8 Ohm ESR, and identical physical dimensions. Selection between these two is determined by inventory availability and supply chain requirements. TAP475M010SCS offers higher stock availability (5040 units versus 701 units).

TAP475K010SCS provides an upgrade path with improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%) while maintaining all other electrical parameters and physical dimensions. This part is suitable for applications requiring tighter capacitance accuracy. ESR and voltage rating remain unchanged at 8 Ohm and 10 V respectively.

TAP475K025SRW represents a higher voltage-rated upgrade option with 25 V rating and reduced ESR of 4 Ohm, coupled with ±10% tolerance. Physical dimensions increase to 0.197" diameter and 0.335" height. This part is applicable in designs requiring higher voltage headroom or lower impedance characteristics. Packaging format differs (Cut Tape versus Bulk).

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and conformal coating specifications required for the TAP series application profile.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP475M010SCS replace TAP475M010DCS in all applications? A: Yes. TAP475M010SCS is a direct equivalent with identical capacitance (4.7 µF), voltage rating (10 V), tolerance (±20%), ESR (8 Ohm), and physical dimensions. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the advantage of TAP475K010SCS over TAP475M010DCS? A: TAP475K010SCS provides tighter capacitance tolerance (±10% versus ±20%), improving accuracy in applications sensitive to capacitance variation. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: When should TAP475K025SRW be selected instead of TAP475M010DCS? A: TAP475K025SRW is selected when the application requires higher voltage margin (25 V versus 10 V) or lower impedance (4 Ohm versus 8 Ohm ESR). Physical dimensions are larger (0.197" diameter, 0.335" height), requiring PCB layout verification.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. TAP475M010SCS, TAP475K010SCS, and TAP475K025SRW are all ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of TAP475M010DCS.

Q: What is the difference between Bulk and Cut Tape packaging? A: TAP475M010DCS, TAP475M010SCS, and TAP475K010SCS are supplied in Bulk packaging. TAP475K025SRW is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and order quantity.

Q: Can TAP475K025SRW be used in a circuit designed for 10 V rated capacitors? A: Yes. TAP475K025SRW is rated for 25 V operation and functions correctly in 10 V circuits. The higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin. Physical dimensions must be verified for PCB compatibility.
