CA45-D-16V-100uF-K is a D-case 100uF 16V tantalum capacitor. No reviewed candidate is confirmed pin-compatible from the available fields.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

Voltage, tolerance, ESR, and capacitance must be checked.

Package riskhigh

Most candidates are not proven D (7343).

Firmware risklow

Passive capacitor; no firmware impact expected.

Sourcing riskmedium

Target lifecycle and supply status are not resolved.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for CA45-D-16V-100uF-K should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

Start with a D-case 100uF 16V or higher tantalum part with ±10% and +125°C ratings.

Main risk

Package and voltage rating are the main blockers.
