Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the 08055C102KAT4H is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Electrical Characteristics: Capacitance (1000 pF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (50V), and temperature coefficient (X7R)
• Package Specifications: 0805 (2012 Metric) surface mount form factor
• Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1
• Operating Environment: Temperature range of -55°C to 125°C

All listed substitute parts meet these core requirements and are functionally interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical perspective. The substitutes differ in manufacturer origin, specific termination technology, and automotive-grade certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

08055C102KAT4H is the primary specification for general-purpose applications and remains in Active status with established RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected classification.

KAF21BR71H102KT serves as an upgrade substitute when automotive-grade reliability is required. This part carries AEC-Q200 certification and features soft termination technology (FLEXITERM®) for improved flex performance. It is manufactured by the same supplier (KYOCERA AVX) and maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering enhanced durability for demanding applications. Substantially higher stock availability (13127 units) supports sustained supply continuity.

MA0805XR102K500 is available as a direct manufacturer alternative from Meritek for cost-sensitive applications requiring equivalent electrical performance. This part shares all critical electrical parameters and RoHS3 compliance. Highest inventory level (964654 units) ensures maximum supply chain flexibility. Physical dimensions show minor variance (0.083" L versus 0.079" L) within 0805 package tolerance, maintaining PCB layout compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are these capacitors electrically interchangeable? A: Yes. All three parts share identical capacitance (1000 pF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (50V), temperature coefficient (X7R), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). They are electrically equivalent for standard circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between the KYOCERA AVX standard part and the KAF21BR71H102KT variant? A: The KAF21BR71H102KT features soft termination technology and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. This makes it suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability and improved flex performance. Electrical specifications remain identical to the standard 08055C102KAT4H.

Q: Can the Meritek MA0805XR102K500 be used as a direct replacement? A: Yes, the MA0805XR102K500 is functionally equivalent with matching electrical specifications and RoHS3 compliance. Physical dimensions remain within 0805 package tolerance. Select based on supply chain availability and cost considerations.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns with the 0805 package? A: No. All substitutes use the 0805 (2012 Metric) surface mount package with identical mounting characteristics. PCB footprints and reflow profiles are standardized for this package class.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL rating? A: All three parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity limitations. These capacitors can be stored indefinitely without environmental controls or special handling requirements.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-reliability automotive applications? A: The KAF21BR71H102KT is specified for automotive applications due to AEC-Q200 certification and soft termination features. The standard 08055C102KAT4H and MA0805XR102K500 are suitable for general-purpose and industrial applications.
