Cross-vendor functional alternative with similar voltage but a larger package.
T491B107M010AT is a 100µF, 10V, 20% tolerance tantalum capacitor in a 3528-21 (B) package. Finding a direct drop-in replacement requires matching these key parameters and the physical case size.
All viable electrical alternatives are in a larger package, requiring PCB redesign.
Functional alternatives meet or exceed voltage, tolerance, and ESR specifications.
No direct pin-compatible replacements were found in this review. Several functional alternatives exist but have a larger package, requiring board redesign.
Search for capacitors with 100µF capacitance, voltage ≥ 10V, and a 3528-21 (B) package. Tighter tolerance (e.g., ±10%) is generally acceptable.
The primary risk is package mismatch. Using an alternative with a different case size like 7343-31 (D-case) will not fit on the existing PCB footprint.

| Feature / factor | T491B107M010AT | 293D107X9010D2TE3 | 293D107X9016D2TE3 | T491D107K020AT | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | 3528-21 (B) | 7343-31 (D) | 7343-31 (D) | 7343-31 (D) | 7343-31 (D) — Candidate is physically larger, requires layout change.; 293D107X9016D2TE3: Candidate is physically larger, requires layout change.; T491D107K020AT: Candidate is physically larger, requires layout change. |
| Voltage | 10V | 10V | 16V | 20V | 10V / 16V / 20V — Voltage rating matches target.; 293D107X9016D2TE3: Higher voltage rating provides more margin.; T491D107K020AT: Higher voltage rating provides more margin. |
| Tolerance | ±20% | ±10% | ±10% | ±10% | ±10% — Tighter tolerance is an improvement.; 293D107X9016D2TE3: Tighter tolerance is an improvement.; T491D107K020AT: Tighter tolerance is an improvement. |
| Esr | 1.2 Ω | 0.9 Ω | 0.6 Ω | 0.9 Ω | 0.9 Ω / 0.6 Ω — Lower ESR is generally better for performance.; 293D107X9016D2TE3: Significantly lower ESR improves performance.; T491D107K020AT: Lower ESR is generally better for performance. |
Functionally, parts like KEMET's T491D107K020AT offer better electrical specs (100µF, 20V, 10%) but come in a larger package (7343-31) and are not drop-in replacements.
