Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 150683K100BB is determined by the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance: 0.068 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (acceptable range)
• Voltage Rating (DC): 100V (minimum threshold)
• Dielectric Material: Polyester (primary specification)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole (required for PCB compatibility)
• Package Type: Axial (connector type specification)
• Termination: PC Pins (connection method)

The WMF1S68K-F meets all specified criteria for direct substitution with the obsolete 150683K100BB. Both components share identical electrical specifications and mounting characteristics, with differences limited to physical dimensions and series designation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The WMF1S68K-F is suitable as a substitute for the obsolete 150683K100BB based on the following factors:

Electrical Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical capacitance (0.068 µF), tolerance (±10%), and voltage rating (100V DC), ensuring functional compatibility in circuits designed for the original component.

Compliance Status: The WMF1S68K-F holds active product status, providing long-term availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete 150683K100BB. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying modern regulatory requirements.

Physical Constraints: The WMF1S68K-F exhibits larger physical dimensions (0.295" Dia x 0.811" L) compared to the original (0.236" Dia x 0.650" L). PCB layout verification is necessary to confirm that increased physical size does not create mechanical interference in the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can WMF1S68K-F directly replace 150683K100BB without circuit modification? A: Yes, provided PCB layout accommodates the larger physical dimensions. All electrical parameters (capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and operating temperature range) are identical, eliminating the need for circuit redesign.

Q: What is the significance of the product status change from Obsolete to Active? A: The WMF1S68K-F active status ensures continuous manufacturing and supply availability, eliminating the long-term procurement risk associated with obsolete components.

Q: Are there temperature operating range limitations when substituting? A: No. Both components operate identically across the -55°C to 125°C range, ensuring thermal performance equivalence.

Q: Does the difference in physical dimensions affect electrical performance? A: No. Dimensional differences do not alter electrical characteristics. However, physical size must be verified for PCB mounting compatibility.

Q: Are RoHS and REACH compliance requirements maintained? A: Yes. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying identical regulatory requirements.
