Highest inventory availability (28,575 pcs) supports supply chain continuity. Tape & Reel packaging accommodates production requirements. Recommended for direct replacement with regulatory compliance upgrade.

C0805C183K1RAC7800 (KEMET - Direct Alternative): This substitute provides cross-manufacturer equivalence with identical electrical specifications and tolerance. RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status meet regulatory requirements. Minimal thickness profile (0.035" / 0.88mm) offers space optimization in constrained PCB layouts. Suitable for applications requiring multi-source component strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can KGM21AR72A183JU replace 08051C183KAJ2A directly? A: Yes. Both components share identical capacitance (0.018 µF), voltage rating (100V), temperature coefficient (X7R), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and 0805 package specification. The substitute features improved tolerance (±5%) and enhanced compliance status.

Q: What is the difference between KGM21AR72A183JU and KGM21AR72A183KU? A: Both are KYOCERA AVX KGM series X7R capacitors with identical electrical specifications. The primary difference is tolerance: KGM21AR72A183JU specifies ±5% tolerance, while KGM21AR72A183KU specifies ±10% tolerance matching the original part. KGM21AR72A183KU offers significantly higher inventory availability.

Q: Is C0805C183K1RAC7800 compatible with the original design? A: Yes. This KEMET component maintains all critical electrical parameters and 0805 package dimensions. It provides cross-manufacturer sourcing flexibility and features a thinner profile (0.035" versus 0.037" maximum thickness), which may benefit space-constrained designs.

Q: What are the compliance differences between the main part and substitutes? A: The original 08051C183KAJ2A is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. All three substitutes are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing regulatory advantages for new designs or compliance-driven applications.

Q: Are there thickness considerations when substituting? A: Yes. The original part specifies 0.037" (0.94mm) maximum thickness. KGM21AR72A183JU and KGM21AR72A183KU specify 0.057" (1.45mm), while C0805C183K1RAC7800 specifies 0.035" (0.88mm). Verify PCB clearance and assembly process compatibility for designs with tight vertical constraints.

Q: Can these substitutes be used interchangeably in production? A: All substitutes maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the 0805 package. Tape & Reel packaging format supports automated assembly. Verify solder reflow profiles and placement equipment compatibility for your specific manufacturing process.
