Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TAP476K020GSB is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 47 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 20 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Type: Conformal Coated (exact match required)
• ESR: 1.2 Ohm (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Radial (exact match required)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

The TAP476K020CCS meets all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent within the KYOCERA AVX TAP series. Mechanical differences in lead spacing do not affect electrical performance or circuit board compatibility for through-hole radial configurations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TAP476K020GSB and TAP476K020CCS are active production components manufactured by KYOCERA AVX with identical electrical specifications and full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on circuit board layout requirements and lead spacing accommodation. The TAP476K020CCS offers wider lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm) compared to the TAP476K020GSB (0.125" / 3.18mm), which may provide improved board layout flexibility in applications with tighter component density constraints. Both parts maintain identical performance characteristics across all electrical parameters, operating temperature range, and reliability metrics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TAP476K020CCS be used as a direct replacement for TAP476K020GSB?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically identical with matching capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, ESR, and operating temperature specifications. The difference in lead spacing does not affect electrical performance and is a mechanical consideration for printed circuit board layout.

Q: What is the significance of the different lead spacing between these parts?

A: Lead spacing affects the physical distance between mounting holes on the circuit board. TAP476K020GSB uses 0.125" (3.18mm) spacing, while TAP476K020CCS uses 0.197" (5.00mm) spacing. Board layout must accommodate the specific lead spacing of the selected part. This is a mechanical compatibility factor, not an electrical one.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both TAP476K020GSB and TAP476K020CCS are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.

Q: What is the expected operational lifetime of these capacitors?

A: Both parts are rated for 1000 hours of operation at 85°C, providing equivalent reliability and service life expectations under specified thermal conditions.

Q: Are there any differences in packaging or inventory availability?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. TAP476K020GSB has 678 pieces in stock, while TAP476K020CCS has 1850 pieces available. Inventory levels may vary based on current procurement cycles.
