0603J2000560FUT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 0603J2000560FUT is a 56 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by Knowles Syfer, designed for RF and microwave applications requiring high Q, low loss, and ultra-low ESR characteristics. This surface mount MLCC operates across -55°C to 125°C with C0G/NP0 temperature stability and maintains ±1% capacitance tolerance at 200V rated voltage. The part is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified to provide design flexibility when the primary part is unavailable or when design requirements permit higher voltage ratings.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 0603J2000560FUT is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must be 56 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: Must be ±1% or tighter
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be C0G or NP0 (equivalent designations)
• Package / Case: Must be 0603 (1608 Metric) for mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount MLCC
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 125°C minimum
• Voltage Rating: Must be equal to or greater than 200V

The identified substitute part meets all mandatory parameters while offering an upgraded voltage rating, providing additional design margin in applications where higher voltage tolerance is acceptable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 0603J2000560FUT and CBR06C560FAGAC are active production parts with identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. The primary distinction is the voltage rating: the KEMET CBR06C560FAGAC provides 250V rated voltage compared to the Knowles Syfer 0603J2000560FUT at 200V. This voltage upgrade does not compromise any other electrical or mechanical parameter and is suitable for direct substitution in applications where the circuit design permits the higher voltage rating. The thickness differential (0.90mm versus 0.80mm) is within typical PCB assembly tolerances for 0603 packages. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, supply chain requirements, and circuit voltage specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CBR06C560FAGAC replace the 0603J2000560FUT in all applications?

A: Yes, provided the circuit design permits operation at 250V rated voltage. The substitute part maintains identical capacitance, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The higher voltage rating introduces no functional degradation.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility concerns between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 0603 (1608 Metric) package with identical length and width dimensions (1.60mm x 0.80mm). The thickness difference (0.80mm versus 0.90mm) is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect placement or soldering processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 0603J2000560FUT and CBR06C560FAGAC are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. Both carry MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the significance of the C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient?

A: C0G and NP0 designations are equivalent and indicate minimal capacitance variation across the -55°C to 125°C operating range. This stability is critical for RF and microwave applications where frequency precision is required.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-frequency circuits?

A: Yes. Both parts are specified for RF and microwave applications with identical high Q, low loss, and ultra-low ESR characteristics. The electrical performance is equivalent across the specified frequency range.
