Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1206J2000563MXT is determined by the following criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 0.056 µF
  • Temperature coefficient: X7R
  • Package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C minimum
  • RoHS3 compliance
  • MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variations:

  • Voltage rating: Equal to or greater than 200V
  • Tolerance: Equal to or tighter than ±20%
  • Physical dimensions: Within 1206 package specification

The KEMET C1206C563KARAC7800 qualifies as a substitute because it maintains identical capacitance, temperature coefficient, package, and operating temperature range while providing higher voltage rating (250V) and tighter tolerance (±10%), both of which represent improvements over the original specification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C1206C563KARAC7800 from KEMET is a direct substitute for the 1206J2000563MXT. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL rating 1, confirming suitability for standard manufacturing and storage conditions. The KEMET substitute provides enhanced specifications: 250V voltage rating (versus 200V) and ±10% tolerance (versus ±20%), making it suitable for applications requiring higher voltage margins or tighter capacitance accuracy. The reduced thickness (0.043" versus 0.063") presents no compatibility issues for standard 1206 footprints. Component selection should be based on application voltage requirements, tolerance specifications, and inventory availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the C1206C563KARAC7800 be used in place of the 1206J2000563MXT?

A: Yes. Both components share identical capacitance (0.056 µF), temperature coefficient (X7R), package (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The KEMET part meets or exceeds all electrical and mechanical requirements of the original specification.

Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference (200V vs. 250V)?

A: The substitute part has a higher voltage rating, which provides additional safety margin in applications operating at or near the original 200V specification. This represents an improvement and does not create compatibility issues.

Q: Does the tolerance difference (±20% vs. ±10%) affect substitution?

A: The tighter tolerance of the substitute part (±10%) is an improvement over the original (±20%). Applications requiring the original ±20% tolerance will function correctly with the ±10% substitute.

Q: Are there physical mounting differences between these parts?

A: Both components use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package and surface mount configuration. The substitute has reduced thickness (0.043" versus 0.063"), which is compatible with standard 1206 PCB footprints and does not affect placement or soldering.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the 1206J2000563MXT and C1206C563KARAC7800 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), confirming equivalent environmental and regulatory compliance.
