Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are organized into two categories based on substitution logic:

Upgrade Category (Higher Voltage Rating): Parts with identical capacitance (1500 pF), tolerance (±10%), and X7R temperature coefficient, but with rated voltage of 100V or 200V. These parts are direct functional upgrades suitable for applications requiring higher voltage margin or operating in higher voltage environments. All upgrade parts maintain 0805 package compatibility and MSL 1 rating.

Direct Category (Same Specifications): Parts with identical electrical specifications (1500 pF, ±10%, 50V, X7R) from alternative manufacturers. These parts provide equivalent functionality with identical voltage and tolerance ratings. Direct substitutes are sourced from KYOCERA AVX (KGM series), Walsin Technology Corporation, KEMET, YAGEO, and Vishay Vitramon.

Key Parameters for Substitution Eligibility:

• Capacitance: 1500 pF (fixed)
• Temperature Coefficient: X7R (fixed)
• Package: 0805 (2012 Metric) (fixed)
• Voltage Rating: 50V minimum (50V, 100V, or 200V acceptable)
• Tolerance: ±10% or tighter (±10% or ±5% acceptable)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC (fixed)
• MSL: 1 (Unlimited) (fixed)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (50V, ±10%): Select KGM21NR71H152KT (KYOCERA AVX), 0805B152K500CT (Walsin), C0805C152K5RAC7800 (KEMET), CC0805KRX7R9BB152 (YAGEO), or VJ0805Y152KXACW1BC (Vishay Vitramon). All direct substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing improved environmental compliance over the original 08055C152KAJ4A.

For Voltage Margin Enhancement: Select KGM21NR72A152KT (100V, ±10%) or KGM21NR72D152KT (200V, ±10%) when circuit design requires higher voltage headroom. These parts maintain identical capacitance and tolerance while providing 2x or 4x voltage rating respectively.

For Tighter Tolerance Requirements: Select C0805C152J1RAC7800 (100V, ±5%) or C0805C152J5RAC7800 (50V, ±5%) when application specifications demand ±5% tolerance. Both parts are KEMET SMD Comm X7R series with ROHS3 compliance.

Packaging Consideration: The original part is supplied in bulk packaging. All substitute parts listed are available in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated assembly operations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can KGM21NR72A152KT (100V) be used in place of 08055C152KAJ4A (50V)?

A: Yes. KGM21NR72A152KT is a direct functional upgrade with identical capacitance (1500 pF) and tolerance (±10%), but with doubled voltage rating (100V vs 50V). This part is suitable for any application designed for 50V operation and provides additional voltage margin. The 0805 package footprint is identical.

Q: What is the difference between KGM21NR72A152JT and KGM21NR72A152KT?

A: Both parts are 100V rated with 1500 pF capacitance and 0805 package. The difference is tolerance: KGM21NR72A152JT is ±5% while KGM21NR72A152KT is ±10%. Select based on circuit tolerance requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The original 08055C152KAJ4A is RoHS non-compliant. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, providing improved environmental compliance for new designs or procurement requirements.

Q: Does thickness variation affect PCB assembly?

A: Thickness variation among 0805 parts ranges from 0.024" (0.60mm) to 0.039" (1.00mm). All values are within standard 0805 specification limits. Verify PCB design clearance if space constraints exist, but standard 0805 footprints accommodate all listed parts.

Q: Can KEMET C0805C152K5RAC7800 replace YAGEO CC0805KRX7R9BB152?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical electrical specifications (1500 pF, ±10%, 50V, X7R) and 0805 package. KEMET part has 0.035" (0.88mm) thickness while YAGEO has 0.024" (0.60mm) thickness. Both are within 0805 specification and interchangeable at the circuit level.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean for these capacitors?

A: MSL 1 indicates Moisture Sensitivity Level 1, which means unlimited shelf life without moisture bake-out requirements. These parts do not require special moisture control during storage or handling.
