1206J2000331FCT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 1206J2000331FCT is a 330 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by Knowles Syfer, rated for 200V with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient and ±1% tolerance. This surface mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) is designed for general purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across temperature ranges from -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently in active production status with 1074 units available in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the same package footprint and performance parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1206J2000331FCT is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Capacitance value: 330 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 200V (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: C0G/NP0 (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)
• Package footprint: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC (exact match required)
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The substitute part KGM31BCG2D331FT from KYOCERA AVX meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 1206J2000331FCT and KGM31BCG2D331FT are active production parts with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability, lead time, or supply chain requirements. The KGM31BCG2D331FT from KYOCERA AVX offers higher inventory availability (3855 units in stock versus 1074 units for the Knowles Syfer part). The KGM31BCG2D331FT exhibits a lower maximum thickness (0.037" versus 0.063"), which may provide advantages in space-constrained applications while maintaining identical electrical performance and package footprint compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can KGM31BCG2D331FT be used as a direct replacement for 1206J2000331FCT?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (330 pF), tolerance (±1%), voltage rating (200V), temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), package footprint (1206/3216 Metric), and regulatory compliance status. They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: Are there any physical differences between these parts?

A: The maximum thickness differs: 1206J2000331FCT is 0.063" (1.60mm), while KGM31BCG2D331FT is 0.037" (0.94mm). Both maintain the same length and width dimensions (0.126" x 0.063" / 3.20mm x 1.60mm) and are compatible with standard 1206 package footprints.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, classified as EAR99, and share the same HTSUS code (8532.24.0020). Both have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this capacitor?

A: Substitution requires exact matching of capacitance value, tolerance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, package footprint, mounting type, and regulatory compliance status. Any deviation in these parameters disqualifies a part from direct substitution.

Q: Which part should be selected based on availability?

A: KGM31BCG2D331FT has higher current inventory (3855 units) compared to 1206J2000331FCT (1074 units). Selection should be based on supply chain requirements and lead time constraints.
