Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 12065E103MAT2A

Part Overview

The 12065E103MAT2A is a 10000 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across a wide operating temperature range. This Surface Mount, MLCC (Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor) component operates from 10°C to 85°C with a Z5U temperature coefficient and is rated for 50V. The part is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), making it suitable for standard industrial and commercial electronics applications.

Equivalent parts are identified when component availability, lead times, or inventory constraints necessitate sourcing from alternative manufacturers while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 50V (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: Z5U (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: 10°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) (exact match required)
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The KEMET part C1206C103M5UAC7800 meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 12065E103MAT2A and C1206C103M5UAC7800 are active production components with identical electrical specifications, regulatory compliance status, and packaging. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory Availability: KEMET C1206C103M5UAC7800 maintains higher stock levels (4921 pcs vs. 752 pcs)
• Lead Time Requirements: Supplier delivery schedules and procurement timelines
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts satisfy ROHS3 and REACH requirements for regulated markets
• Physical Clearance: The KEMET part has a maximum thickness of 0.035" (0.88mm) compared to 0.037" (0.94mm) for the KYOCERA AVX part, providing additional design margin in space-constrained applications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can C1206C103M5UAC7800 be used as a direct replacement for 12065E103MAT2A?

A: Yes. Both parts are 10000 pF, ±20%, 50V, Z5U ceramic capacitors in 1206 (3216 Metric) packages with identical electrical performance and regulatory compliance. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences between these parts?

A: Both parts share identical length (0.126" / 3.20mm) and width (0.063" / 1.60mm). The KEMET part has a slightly lower maximum thickness (0.035" / 0.88mm) compared to the KYOCERA AVX part (0.037" / 0.94mm). This difference is within standard manufacturing tolerances and does not affect PCB assembly or circuit performance.

Q: Do both parts require the same handling and storage conditions?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, indicating no special moisture control requirements during storage or handling. Standard ESD precautions apply to both components.

Q: What certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both carry EAR99 export classification and 8532.24.0020 HTSUS code.

Q: Can these parts be mixed in the same production batch?

A: Yes. Electrical and mechanical equivalence permits interchangeable use within the same assembly. No circuit redesign or PCB layout modification is required.
