08053C151KAT2A Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 08053C151KAT2A is a 150 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, rated for 25V operation with X7R temperature coefficient in 0805 (2012 Metric) surface mount package. This part is currently active in production with 869 units in stock. Substitute parts are necessary when the original part becomes unavailable, when higher voltage ratings are required for circuit margin, or when alternative manufacturers are preferred for supply chain diversification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 08053C151KAT2A is determined by the following criteria:

Mandatory Parameters (Must Match):

• Capacitance: 150 pF
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Temperature Coefficient: X7R
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C

Flexible Parameters (May Vary):

• Voltage Rating: May be equal to or higher than 25V
• Manufacturer: Alternative manufacturers acceptable
• Packaging Format: Tape & Reel or Cut Tape acceptable
• Product Status: Active or Obsolete (with inventory consideration)

The substitute parts are grouped into two categories: voltage-upgraded alternatives (higher voltage ratings for increased design margin) and equivalent-voltage alternatives (same or higher voltage from different manufacturers).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Same Voltage): Use 08055C151KAT2A or C0805C151K5RAC7800 when the original 08053C151KAT2A is unavailable. Both parts maintain the same electrical characteristics while offering higher voltage ratings. The 08055C151KAT2A provides the highest inventory availability (30282 units) and maintains the same manufacturer lineage. The C0805C151K5RAC7800 from KEMET offers cross-manufacturer compatibility with equivalent performance.

For Voltage-Upgraded Applications: Use 08051C151KAT2A when circuit design requires increased voltage margin. This part maintains all other specifications while providing 100V rating, suitable for applications requiring enhanced reliability in higher voltage environments.

Avoid: CL21B151KBANNNC is marked as Obsolete and should not be selected for new designs, despite current inventory availability.

Compliance Considerations: All recommended substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL Level 1 rating, and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a higher voltage-rated capacitor as a substitute? A: Yes. A 50V or 100V rated capacitor can replace a 25V rated capacitor in the same package with identical capacitance and tolerance. Higher voltage ratings provide additional design margin without affecting circuit performance.

Q: Are all substitute parts pin-compatible with the original? A: Yes. All listed substitutes use the 0805 (2012 Metric) surface mount package with identical footprint and pin configuration, ensuring direct PCB compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between KYOCERA AVX and KEMET versions? A: Both manufacturers produce equivalent 150 pF X7R capacitors in 0805 package with identical electrical performance. Selection between manufacturers depends on supply chain preference and inventory availability.

Q: Why is CL21B151KBANNNC listed if it is obsolete? A: The part is included for reference purposes only. It should not be selected for new designs. Use active alternatives instead.

Q: Does package thickness variation affect substitution? A: All substitute parts maintain compatible thickness within the 0805 package specification. Minor thickness variations (0.030" to 0.037") do not affect PCB assembly or circuit performance.

Q: Can I mix manufacturers in the same circuit? A: Yes. KYOCERA AVX and KEMET parts with identical electrical specifications can be used interchangeably within the same design without performance degradation.
