0603J2000331KXT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 0603J2000331KXT is a 330 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by Knowles Syfer, rated for 200V with X7R temperature coefficient in 0603 (1608 Metric) surface mount package. This part is classified as Active and suitable for general purpose applications. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications (capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient) and mechanical compatibility (package type, physical dimensions, mounting method).

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters: Capacitance value (330 pF), package type (0603/1608 Metric), mounting method (Surface Mount, MLCC), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C).

Secondary Matching Parameters: Voltage rating (200V or higher), tolerance (±10% or tighter), and temperature coefficient (X7R or equivalent stability).

Compliance Requirements: RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct X7R Substitutes: Parts with identical temperature coefficient (X7R), 200V rating, and ±10% tolerance. These provide direct functional equivalence.

Upgraded Substitutes: Parts with enhanced specifications (higher voltage rating or tighter tolerance, C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient) that maintain backward compatibility while offering improved performance margins.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitutes (Preferred): C0603C331K2RAC7867 (KEMET) and KGM15BR72D331KT (KYOCERA AVX) are functionally equivalent to the 0603J2000331KXT. Both maintain identical electrical specifications (330 pF, ±10%, 200V, X7R) and package compatibility. Both manufacturers' parts are Active status with full RoHS3 compliance. Selection between these options depends on inventory availability and supply chain requirements.

Upgraded Substitutes: C0603C331JAGAC7867 (KEMET) offers enhanced specifications with 250V rating and ±5% tolerance while maintaining C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient stability. This part is suitable for applications requiring improved voltage margin or tighter capacitance tolerance. Product status is Active.

Legacy Substitute: C1608C0G2E331K080AA (TDK Corporation) meets electrical and mechanical requirements but carries "Not For New Designs" status. This part should be used only for legacy system maintenance or repair applications where original part sourcing is unavailable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can C0603C331K2RAC7867 directly replace 0603J2000331KXT? A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (330 pF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (200V), temperature coefficient (X7R), and package type (0603/1608 Metric). Physical thickness differs by 0.003" (0.07mm), which is within standard PCB assembly tolerances for surface mount components.

Q: What is the difference between X7R and C0G/NP0 temperature coefficients? A: X7R provides ±15% capacitance variation across the operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). C0G/NP0 provides superior stability with ±0.3% variation. C0G/NP0 substitutes (C0603C331JAGAC7867, C1608C0G2E331K080AA) are suitable for applications requiring tighter capacitance stability but are not required for general purpose bypass and decoupling applications.

Q: Is the thickness difference between substitute parts significant? A: Thickness variations (0.80mm to 0.95mm) are within standard 0603 package specifications and do not affect PCB assembly compatibility. Verify clearance in applications with height-constrained layouts.

Q: Why is C1608C0G2E331K080AA marked "Not For New Designs"? A: This TDK part is in legacy status, indicating the manufacturer recommends against use in new product development. Use only for replacement in existing systems where original part sourcing is exhausted.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.
