KYOCERA AVX 1808GC102MATME Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The KYOCERA AVX 1808GC102MATME is a 1000 pF ±20% 2000V (2kV) ceramic capacitor with X7R temperature coefficient in 1808 (4520 Metric) surface mount package. This high-voltage MLCC is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part is ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating and is currently in active production status with 662 units in stock.

Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary when addressing supply chain constraints, design optimization requirements, or when upgrading to improved tolerance specifications or higher voltage ratings while maintaining the same physical footprint and electrical performance envelope.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Critical Parameters (Must Match):

• Capacitance: 1000 pF
• Temperature Coefficient: X7R
• Package / Case: 1808 (4520 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variations:

• Tolerance: ±20% (main part) to ±10% (upgrade substitutes)
• Voltage Rating: 2000V (main part) to 2500V or 3000V (upgrade substitutes)
• Physical Dimensions: Thickness may vary within package specification
• Packaging Format: Cut Tape, Tape & Reel, or Digi-Reel formats are interchangeable
• Manufacturer: KYOCERA AVX, TDK Corporation, YAGEO, KEMET

Substitution Categories:

1. Direct Manufacturer Equivalents – Identical electrical specifications, different packaging or manufacturer
2. Upgrade Substitutes – Improved tolerance (±10%) or higher voltage rating (2.5kV, 3kV) with same capacitance
3. Parametric Equivalents – Same electrical specifications as main part, alternative packaging

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Substitution (Same Electrical Specifications):

Select from KYOCERA AVX 1808GC102MAT1A, KGM42CR73D102MY, or YAGEO CC1808MKX7RDBB102 when equivalent ±20% tolerance and 2000V rating are required. All three maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance. KYOCERA AVX 1808GC102MAT1A offers highest inventory availability (6100 units) with identical thickness specification (0.071" / 1.80mm).

For Tolerance Upgrade (±10% Specification):

KYOCERA AVX 1808GC102KAT1A or KEMET C1808C102KGRAC7800 provide improved ±10% tolerance while maintaining 2000V rating and active product status. KYOCERA AVX option offers higher inventory (3294 units) and identical thickness to main part.

For Voltage Upgrade:

KYOCERA AVX 1808HC102KAT1A (3000V) or 1808WC102KAT1A (2500V) provide enhanced voltage margin with ±10% tolerance. Both maintain active status and ROHS3 compliance. Thickness increases to 0.087" (2.20mm) – verify PCB layout accommodation.

Avoid for New Designs:

TDK Corporation C4520X7R3D102M130KA is marked "Not For New Designs" despite meeting electrical specifications. Use only for legacy system maintenance or repair applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute 1808GC102MATME with a higher voltage-rated part?

A: Yes. KYOCERA AVX 1808HC102KAT1A (3000V) and 1808WC102KAT1A (2500V) are direct substitutes with identical capacitance and temperature coefficient. Verify PCB clearance for increased thickness (0.087" vs. 0.071").

Q: What is the difference between ±20% and ±10% tolerance parts?

A: Tolerance defines the allowable capacitance deviation from nominal value. ±10% tolerance (upgrade parts) provides tighter capacitance control suitable for precision applications. ±20% tolerance (main part) is acceptable for general-purpose circuits with wider tolerance margins.

Q: Are KYOCERA AVX and TDK parts interchangeable?

A: Electrically yes, but TDK C4520X7R3D102M130KA is marked "Not For New Designs." Use KYOCERA AVX equivalents for new designs. Physical dimensions differ slightly (TDK: 0.177" L vs. KYOCERA: 0.181" L).

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Cut Tape (CT), Tape & Reel (TR), and Digi-Reel formats are packaging only and do not affect capacitor electrical characteristics. Select based on assembly equipment compatibility and inventory requirements.

Q: Can I use YAGEO CC1808MKX7RDBB102 as a direct replacement?

A: Yes. YAGEO part matches all critical electrical parameters (1000 pF, ±20%, 2000V, X7R, -55°C to 125°C) and is ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1. Physical dimensions are 0.177" L x 0.079" W with 0.087" thickness. Verify footprint compatibility on PCB.

Q: What is MSL 1 rating?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture bake-out requirements. The part can be stored indefinitely under normal conditions without degradation.
