Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1676860-5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 1 pF
• Voltage rating: 50V minimum
• Temperature coefficient: C0G/NP0
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C minimum
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 or better

Acceptable Variations:

• Tolerance specifications may differ (±5% versus ±0.25pF) provided the substitute meets or exceeds the original tolerance
• Product status may transition from obsolete to active
• Packaging format may change (Tape & Reel acceptable for Surface Mount components)
• RoHS compliance status may be upgraded

The KYOCERA AVX KGM31BCG1H1R0CT meets all mandatory parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The KYOCERA AVX KGM31BCG1H1R0CT is a qualified substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity 1676860-5 based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: Both components provide identical capacitance (1 pF), voltage rating (50V), and temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0). The substitute features superior tolerance specification (±0.25pF absolute versus ±5% relative), which provides enhanced precision without compromising compatibility.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts utilize the 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount package with identical footprint dimensions (0.126" L x 0.063" W). Direct PCB layout substitution is supported without design modification.

Regulatory and Compliance Status: Both components maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification. The substitute carries ROHS3 compliance, representing an upgrade in environmental regulatory adherence.

Product Availability: The substitute transitions from obsolete to active product status, ensuring long-term supply chain continuity and manufacturing support.

Moisture Handling: Both components maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or handling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the KYOCERA AVX KGM31BCG1H1R0CT be used as a direct replacement for the TE Connectivity 1676860-5 without PCB redesign?

A: Yes. Both components share identical package dimensions (1206/3216 Metric), footprint, and mounting type (Surface Mount, MLCC). Direct substitution on existing PCB layouts is supported without design modification.

Q: What is the tolerance difference between these two parts, and does it affect circuit performance?

A: The TE Connectivity part specifies ±5% tolerance, while the KYOCERA AVX substitute specifies ±0.25pF absolute tolerance. For a 1 pF capacitor, the ±5% tolerance equals ±0.05pF. The substitute's ±0.25pF tolerance is broader in absolute terms but represents superior precision capability. Circuit performance compatibility depends on application-specific tolerance requirements.

Q: Are there any environmental or regulatory differences between these components?

A: Both components maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification. The substitute carries additional ROHS3 compliance certification, representing enhanced environmental regulatory alignment.

Q: What is the significance of the C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient for these capacitors?

A: C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient indicates minimal capacitance variation across the operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). Both components maintain this specification, ensuring stable circuit performance across the full temperature range.

Q: Why is the TE Connectivity part listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The KYOCERA AVX KGM31BCG1H1R0CT maintains active product status, providing continued availability and manufacturing support for applications requiring 1 pF, 50V ceramic capacitors in 1206 package format.

Q: Are there packaging format differences between these parts?

A: The TE Connectivity part is listed with standard packaging notation, while the KYOCERA AVX substitute specifies Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both formats are compatible with automated surface mount assembly processes. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for high-volume production environments.

Q: What is the MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating?

A: MSL 1 indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity constraints. These parts do not require special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly, simplifying supply chain management and manufacturing processes.
