Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 1210GC102MAT9A is determined by the following critical parameters: capacitance value (1000 pF), voltage rating (2000V minimum), temperature coefficient (X7R), package form factor (1210/3225 Metric), and mounting type (surface mount MLCC). All identified substitutes maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications.

The substitute parts are categorized as follows:

Upgrade Substitutes (improved tolerance): 1210GC102KAT1A and KGM32HR73D102KU both feature ±10% tolerance compared to the original ±20% tolerance, providing tighter capacitance control while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical parameters.

Direct Substitute (equivalent tolerance): C1210C102MGRAC7800 from KEMET maintains the ±20% tolerance specification and is functionally equivalent to the original part, with minor dimensional variations within the 1210 package class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. Selection between the original part and substitutes should be based on tolerance requirements and inventory availability.

For applications requiring tighter capacitance tolerance, 1210GC102KAT1A and KGM32HR73D102KU are suitable upgrades, both offering ±10% tolerance. KGM32HR73D102KU provides the highest inventory availability at 6399 units and belongs to the KGM - HV series.

For applications where ±20% tolerance is acceptable, C1210C102MGRAC7800 from KEMET provides direct equivalence with the original part. All parts maintain identical voltage rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1210GC102KAT1A replace 1210GC102MAT9A in my design?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (1000 pF), voltage rating (2000V), temperature coefficient (X7R), package form factor (1210), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The primary difference is improved tolerance (±10% versus ±20%), making 1210GC102KAT1A suitable for designs where tighter capacitance control is beneficial or required.

Q: What is the difference between KGM32HR73D102KU and 1210GC102MAT9A?

A: Both parts are manufactured by KYOCERA AVX and share identical electrical specifications: 1000 pF capacitance, 2000V voltage rating, X7R temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 125°C operating range. KGM32HR73D102KU features ±10% tolerance and belongs to the KGM - HV series. The packaging format differs (Tape & Reel versus standard packaging), and KGM32HR73D102KU offers significantly higher inventory availability.

Q: Is C1210C102MGRAC7800 from KEMET compatible with designs using 1210GC102MAT9A?

A: Yes. C1210C102MGRAC7800 maintains all critical electrical parameters: 1000 pF capacitance, 2000V voltage rating, X7R temperature coefficient, and identical operating temperature range. Both parts feature ±20% tolerance. Minor dimensional variations exist within the 1210 package specification (length 3.20mm versus 3.30mm, thickness 1.55mm versus 1.80mm), which remain within standard 1210 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: KGM32HR73D102KU provides the highest inventory with 6399 units in stock, followed by C1210C102MGRAC7800 with 3889 units and 1210GC102KAT1A with 2085 units.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory standards for electronic components.
