Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 08053C184MAT9A are qualified based on the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters (Non-Negotiable):

• Capacitance: 0.18 µF (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: X7R (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match required)

Secondary Matching Parameters (Allowable Variations):

• Voltage - Rated: 25V or higher (substitutes with equal or higher voltage rating are acceptable)
• Tolerance: ±20%, ±10%, or ±5% (tighter tolerances are acceptable upgrades)
• Manufacturer: KYOCERA AVX or KEMET (both manufacturers provide equivalent quality and compliance)

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant (mandatory)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (mandatory)
• REACH Unaffected status (mandatory)

All identified substitutes meet these criteria and are suitable for direct replacement in applications designed for the 08053C184MAT9A.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed are Active products with ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and MSL Level 1 rating, meeting the compliance requirements of the original 08053C184MAT9A.

08053C184KAT2A (KYOCERA AVX): Direct manufacturer equivalent with improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%). Maintains identical voltage rating and package specifications. Suitable for applications requiring tighter capacitance tolerance while preserving original manufacturer continuity.

C0805C184J3RAC7800 (KEMET): Cross-manufacturer substitute with the tightest tolerance specification (±5%). Maintains 25V voltage rating and identical package dimensions. Suitable for precision applications where capacitance accuracy is critical.

C0805C184K3RAC7800 (KEMET): Cross-manufacturer substitute with ±10% tolerance and 25V voltage rating. Functionally equivalent to 08053C184KAT2A with alternative manufacturer sourcing.

C0805C184K5RAC7800 (KEMET): Cross-manufacturer substitute with elevated voltage rating (50V versus 25V). Maintains ±10% tolerance and identical package specifications. Suitable for applications where higher voltage margin is required or where 50V-rated components are standardized in the design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the 08053C184MAT9A with a part having a higher voltage rating?

A: Yes. The C0805C184K5RAC7800 (50V rating) is a direct substitute. Higher voltage-rated capacitors of the same capacitance and package are electrically compatible and provide additional voltage margin. No circuit modification is required.

Q: What is the difference between ±20%, ±10%, and ±5% tolerance specifications?

A: Tolerance defines the allowable deviation of actual capacitance from the nominal value. The 08053C184MAT9A has ±20% tolerance, meaning actual capacitance ranges from 0.144 µF to 0.216 µF. Substitute parts with ±10% or ±5% tolerance provide tighter capacitance accuracy. For general-purpose applications, all tolerance grades are functionally equivalent. For precision circuits, tighter tolerance parts (±5% or ±10%) are preferred.

Q: Are KYOCERA AVX and KEMET parts interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both manufacturers produce ROHS3-compliant, MSL Level 1 rated 0805 X7R ceramic capacitors with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Cross-manufacturer substitution is supported by matching capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and package size.

Q: Does the package size differ between substitute parts?

A: All parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.01mm x 1.25mm). Thickness varies slightly between manufacturers (0.037" to 0.055" maximum), but all parts fit standard 0805 PCB pads without modification.

Q: What is Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) and why is it important?

A: MSL indicates the maximum time a component can be exposed to ambient moisture before soldering. MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) means the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions and requires no special handling or baking procedures prior to assembly.
