Form-fit compatible with same capacitance but lower voltage rating (16V). Requires engineering review.
T491D107K020AT is a 100µF, 20V, D-case tantalum capacitor from KEMET. Finding a direct, pin-compatible replacement requires matching capacitance, voltage, and case size.
Lower voltage ratings on alternatives require careful circuit analysis and derating.
The D-case (7343-31) is a standard package, ensuring mechanical compatibility.
Finding an exact parametric match may require searching across multiple vendors.
No direct, fully equivalent replacement was identified. All form-fit compatible options found have a lower voltage rating, posing a significant risk.
Search for 100µF, ≥20V, D-case (7343-31) tantalum capacitors from other manufacturers like Vishay or AVX.
The main risk is electrical overstress due to lower voltage ratings in available alternatives.

| Feature / factor | T491D107K020AT | 293D107X9016D2TE3 | 293D107X9010D2TE3 | Alt 3 | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | 7343-31 | 7343-31 (D Case) | 7343-31 | 7343-31 (D Case) — Package is form-fit compatible.; 293D107X9010D2TE3: Package is form-fit compatible. | |
| Capacitance | 100 µF | 100 µF | 100 µF | 100 µF — Capacitance matches target.; 293D107X9010D2TE3: Capacitance matches target. | |
| Voltage | 20 V | 16 V | 10 V | 16 V / 10 V — Lower voltage rating poses a high risk.; 293D107X9010D2TE3: Significantly lower voltage rating (50% of target). | |
| Tolerance | ±10% | ±10% | ±10% | ±10% — Tolerance matches target.; 293D107X9010D2TE3: Tolerance matches target. | |
| Esr | 0.9 Ω | 0.6 Ω | - | 0.6 Ω — Lower ESR is generally beneficial. |
The best alternative depends on application requirements. While no direct drop-in replacements were found, parts like Vishay's 293D107X9016D2TE3 offer the same package and capacitance but have a lower voltage rating (16V), requiring careful engineering review.
