Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 103PPB162KB are identified based on strict parametric equivalence. The substitution criteria are limited to the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 10000 pF
  • Tolerance: ±10%
  • Voltage Rating - DC: 1600V (1.6kV)
  • Voltage Rating - AC: 650V
  • Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 105°C
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole
  • Package / Case: Radial
  • Physical Dimensions: 18.00mm L x 10.00mm W
  • Height - Seated (Max): 16.00mm
  • Lead Spacing: 15.00mm
  • Termination: PC Pins
  • RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

The substitute part PPB2162100KGS manufactured by Nichicon meets all these criteria and is therefore classified as a parametric equivalent.
