Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 0612YC103MAT2A is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must remain 10000 pF (no deviation permitted)
• Package / Case: Must be 0612 (1632 Metric) for mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount, MLCC
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be X7R for thermal stability equivalence
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 125°C minimum
• Voltage Rating: May be equal to or greater than 16V (higher voltage ratings provide design margin)
• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±20% (tighter tolerance acceptable for improved performance)
• RoHS and Compliance Status: Must maintain ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected status

The substitute part 06123C103KAT2A meets all substitution criteria with an upgraded voltage rating (25V) and improved tolerance (±10%), making it a direct functional replacement.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 06123C103KAT2A substitute part is qualified for direct replacement of the 0612YC103MAT2A based on the following engineering criteria:

• Both parts maintain identical capacitance values and package dimensions, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility in PCB layouts
• The substitute part features a higher voltage rating (25V vs. 16V), providing additional design margin and operational safety
• The substitute part offers improved tolerance specification (±10% vs. ±20%), resulting in tighter capacitance control and more predictable circuit performance
• Both parts are manufactured by the same supplier (KYOCERA AVX) and share identical temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and low ESL characteristics
• Both parts maintain equivalent compliance certifications: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Both parts are currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 06123C103KAT2A be used as a direct replacement for the 0612YC103MAT2A?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (10000 pF), package dimensions (0612/1632 Metric), temperature coefficient (X7R), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The substitute part features higher voltage rating and tighter tolerance, making it functionally equivalent and suitable for direct substitution.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are voltage rating (25V vs. 16V) and tolerance specification (±10% vs. ±20%). The substitute part provides enhanced performance margins without any mechanical or thermal incompatibilities.

Q: Will the substitute part fit the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Both parts use the identical 0612 (1632 Metric) package with matching dimensions: 0.063" L x 0.126" W (1.60mm x 3.20mm) and maximum thickness of 0.037" (0.94mm). No PCB layout modifications are required.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical compliance status: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). No regulatory or environmental differences exist between the two parts.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on circuit voltage requirements. For applications operating at or below 16V, either part is acceptable. For applications requiring design margin or operating near maximum voltage limits, the 06123C103KAT2A (25V rating) is the preferred choice.
