• Temperature coefficient: Z5U
• Operating temperature range: 10°C ~ 85°C (minimum)
• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Mounting technology: Surface Mount MLCC
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

The substitute part C1206C154M5UAC7800 from KEMET meets all specified parameters and maintains functional and mechanical compatibility with the original part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both parts are active products with identical electrical specifications and regulatory compliance status. The C1206C154M5UAC7800 substitute maintains full compatibility with the 12065E154MAT2A across all critical functional and mechanical parameters. The maximum thickness difference of 0.002" (0.06mm) falls within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not impact board-level integration. Both parts carry RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment for current and future applications. Selection between these parts may be based on supply availability, lead time, or inventory management requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the C1206C154M5UAC7800 be used as a direct replacement for the 12065E154MAT2A?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (0.15 µF, ±20%, 50V, Z5U), operating temperature range (10°C ~ 85°C), and package format (1206). The 0.002" thickness variation is within standard assembly tolerances.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are RoHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, with identical moisture sensitivity ratings (MSL 1, Unlimited).

Q: What is the significance of the Z5U temperature coefficient?

A: Z5U indicates a temperature coefficient range of +22% to -56% over the operating temperature span. This specification ensures both parts deliver consistent capacitance performance across the 10°C to 85°C operating window for general purpose applications.

Q: Does the thickness difference affect PCB assembly?

A: The 0.002" (0.06mm) thickness difference between parts is negligible for standard surface mount assembly processes and does not impact component placement, reflow profiles, or board-level clearances.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-reliability applications?

A: Both parts carry active product status and full regulatory compliance. Application suitability depends on specific circuit requirements and design specifications beyond the scope of these electrical and mechanical parameters.
