Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—160564K100G-F, DME2P56K-F, and DME1P56K-F—are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics and maintain active production status. All parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory compliance requirements.

For direct replacement with identical electrical characteristics: Select DME1P56K-F when PCB layout accommodates 0.394" (10.00mm) lead spacing and compact form factor.

For applications requiring higher voltage margin: Select DME2P56K-F to achieve 250V DC rating while maintaining 0.56 µF capacitance. This substitution requires verification of PCB component footprint tolerances due to increased package height (0.512" vs. 0.472").

For maintained application requirements: The 160564K100G-F remains the specified selection when board layout and voltage requirements are fixed at 100V DC with 0.591" (15.00mm) lead spacing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary difference between these substitute parts? A: The DME2P56K-F upgrade increases voltage rating to 250V DC, extending AC rating to 160V. The DME1P56K-F compact equivalent reduces overall package dimensions and modifies lead spacing from 0.591" to 0.394" while maintaining 100V DC rating.

Q: Can DME2P56K-F directly replace 160564K100G-F in existing designs? A: Electrical substitution is valid due to matching 0.56 µF capacitance and ±10% tolerance. Physical verification is required: increased package height (0.512" vs. 0.472") and width (18.50mm vs. 18.00mm) must clear board-level clearances. Lead spacing remains unchanged at 0.591" (15.00mm).

Q: When should DME1P56K-F be selected over the original 160564K100G-F? A: Select DME1P56K-F for space-constrained PCB layouts where reduced dimensions are advantageous. This substitution requires PCB footprint redesign due to altered lead spacing (0.394" vs. 0.591") and smaller overall package size.

Q: Are all parts suitable for -55°C operating environments? A: All three parts support -55°C minimum operating temperature. The 160564K100G-F operates to 105°C maximum, while DME1P56K-F and DME2P56K-F extend to 125°C maximum.

Q: Do these parts require different handling or moisture precautions? A: The 160564K100G-F is rated MSL 1 (Unlimited). The DME1P56K-F and DME2P56K-F are rated Not Applicable for MSL, indicating standard handling protocols apply uniformly across all three parts.
