Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 12062C272MAT2A is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 2700 pF (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric) (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC (assembly compatibility)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (functional envelope)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (handling and storage compatibility)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage - Rated: Substitutes may exceed 200V (higher voltage rating provides design margin)
• Tolerance: Substitutes may have tighter tolerance than ±20% (±5% or ±10% acceptable)
• Temperature Coefficient: Substitutes with C0G/NP0 are acceptable (superior stability compared to X7R)

The substitute parts listed maintain identical capacitance, package, and mounting specifications while offering enhanced voltage ratings and improved tolerance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

C1206C272JBGAC7800 (KEMET) - Recommended for new designs requiring enhanced voltage margin and tighter tolerance. This part offers 630V rating with ±5% tolerance and Active product status, providing superior performance characteristics over the original specification.

C3216C0G2J272J160AA (TDK) - Manufacturer recommended substitute with 630V rating, ±5% tolerance, and Active product status. Suitable for applications requiring improved voltage headroom and temperature coefficient stability.

C3216C0G2J272K160AA (TDK) - Acceptable substitute with 630V rating and ±10% tolerance. Product status is Not For New Designs; use only for legacy system maintenance or replacement applications where design freeze is required.

All substitute parts maintain full regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99) and identical moisture sensitivity classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can C1206C272JBGAC7800 directly replace 12062C272MAT2A in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (2700 pF), package (1206), mounting type (Surface Mount MLCC), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The substitute offers higher voltage rating (630V vs 200V) and tighter tolerance (±5% vs ±20%), making it electrically and mechanically compatible.

Q: What is the difference between C3216C0G2J272J160AA and C3216C0G2J272K160AA?

A: Both are TDK parts with identical voltage (630V) and package specifications. The primary difference is tolerance: C3216C0G2J272J160AA offers ±5% tolerance and Active status, while C3216C0G2J272K160AA offers ±10% tolerance and Not For New Designs status. For new designs, C3216C0G2J272J160AA is preferred.

Q: Why do substitute parts have higher voltage ratings?

A: Higher voltage ratings (630V vs 200V) provide design margin and improved reliability in applications subject to voltage transients or overshoot conditions. This is an allowable enhancement that does not compromise compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), matching the regulatory and handling requirements of the original part.

Q: Can I use C3216C0G2J272K160AA for new product designs?

A: Not recommended. This part carries Not For New Designs status. Use C1206C272JBGAC7800 or C3216C0G2J272J160AA for new designs to ensure long-term availability and manufacturer support.
