Upgraded voltage rating (35V) but requires PCB redesign for its larger D-Case package.
Reviewing alternatives for the AVX TAJC226K025RNJ, a 22µF 25V tantalum capacitor in a C-Case package. Key considerations for replacement are package size, voltage rating, and ESR.
All candidates have different footprints, requiring board redesign.
Must verify tolerance and ensure voltage rating is not lower.
No direct, drop-in replacement for TAJC226K025RNJ was found. All viable alternatives have different physical packages requiring a PCB layout change.
TAJD226K035RNJ is the best functional upgrade if a board redesign is possible, due to its higher 35V rating.
Package mismatch is the main risk, requiring mandatory PCB redesign for any alternative.

| Feature / factor | TAJC226K025RNJ | TAJD226K035RNJ | TCJB226M025R0100 | Alt 3 | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | C Case (6032) | 7343 (D Case) | 1210 (3528 metric) | 7343 (D Case) / 1210 (3528 metric) — Requires PCB redesign.; TCJB226M025R0100: Requires PCB redesign. | |
| Voltage | 25V | 35V | 25V | 35V / 25V — Higher voltage rating provides more margin.; TCJB226M025R0100: Voltage rating matches. | |
| Tolerance | 10% | 10% | 20% | 10% / 20% — Tolerance matches.; TCJB226M025R0100: Wider tolerance may affect circuit precision. | |
| Esr | 1.4 Ohms | 900 mOhms | 100 mOhms | 900 mOhms / 100 mOhms — Lower ESR is beneficial.; TCJB226M025R0100: Lower ESR is generally beneficial. |
TAJD226K035RNJ offers an upgraded 35V rating with similar capacitance and tolerance, but requires a PCB layout change for its larger D-Case package.
