1808SC222MAT9A Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 1808SC222MAT9A is a high-voltage ceramic capacitor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX with a capacitance of 2200 pF, rated voltage of 1500V (1.5kV), and X7R temperature coefficient. This surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) in 1808 (4520 Metric) package is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, design upgrades for higher voltage ratings, or tolerance improvements in specific applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 1808SC222MAT9A is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must remain 2200 pF
• Package / Case: Must be 1808 (4520 Metric) for mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be X7R to maintain stable capacitance across the operating temperature range
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 125°C
• Mounting Type: Must be Surface Mount, MLCC
• Voltage Rating: May be equal to or higher than 1500V (1.5kV)
• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±20%
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

The identified substitute parts meet these criteria with voltage rating upgrades (2000V / 2kV) and, in one case, improved tolerance (±10%), providing enhanced performance margins while maintaining full mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts are suitable replacements for the 1808SC222MAT9A based on the following criteria:

1808GC222MAT1A (KYOCERA AVX): This substitute maintains identical mechanical dimensions and tolerance specifications while providing a 500V voltage rating increase (2000V vs. 1500V). It is manufactured by the same supplier as the main part, ensuring consistent quality and manufacturing processes. This part is recommended for direct substitution when higher voltage margin is required or when inventory of the main part is unavailable.

VPDP202W222K1GV001E (Johanson Dielectrics Inc.): This substitute offers both a 500V voltage rating increase and improved tolerance specification (±10% vs. ±20%), providing tighter capacitance control. Mechanical dimensions are within acceptable tolerance of the main part (0.185" L x 0.080" W vs. 0.181" L x 0.079" W; thickness 0.085" vs. 0.087"). This part is recommended for applications requiring improved capacitance accuracy or when sourcing from alternative manufacturers is preferred. Both substitute parts maintain full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard assembly and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1808GC222MAT1A be used as a direct replacement for 1808SC222MAT9A?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (2200 pF), tolerance (±20%), temperature coefficient (X7R), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), package (1808 / 4520 Metric), and physical dimensions. The 1808GC222MAT1A provides a higher voltage rating (2000V vs. 1500V), making it a suitable upgrade substitute.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: Both substitutes provide 2000V voltage rating. The primary differences are: (1) 1808GC222MAT1A is manufactured by KYOCERA AVX with ±20% tolerance, while VPDP202W222K1GV001E is manufactured by Johanson Dielectrics Inc. with ±10% tolerance; (2) VPDP202W222K1GV001E has slightly larger dimensions (0.185" L x 0.080" W vs. 0.181" L x 0.079" W) and reduced thickness (0.085" vs. 0.087").

Q: Are the physical dimension differences of VPDP202W222K1GV001E significant?

A: The dimension differences are minimal (0.004" length increase, 0.001" width increase, 0.002" thickness reduction). These variations fall within standard PCB layout tolerances for 1808 package components. Verify PCB footprint clearances if space constraints are critical.

Q: Do all three parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level) rating. All are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8532.24.0020.

Q: Can VPDP202W222K1GV001E be used in applications requiring ±20% tolerance?

A: Yes. VPDP202W222K1GV001E has ±10% tolerance, which is tighter than the ±20% specification of the main part. Components with tighter tolerance are compatible with applications designed for looser tolerance specifications.
