KYOCERA AVX 1825GC562MATME Ceramic Capacitor - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The KYOCERA AVX 1825GC562MATME is an active high-voltage ceramic capacitor rated at 5600 pF with 2000V (2kV) operating voltage and X7R temperature coefficient. This surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) in 1825 (4564 Metric) package is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across the -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. Finding equivalent or substitute parts may be necessary due to inventory constraints, design optimization requirements, or application-specific performance needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1825GC562MATME is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 5600 pF (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: X7R (ensures stable performance across operating temperature range)
• Package / Case: 1825 (4564 Metric) (ensures mechanical and electrical compatibility with PCB footprint)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC (maintains assembly process compatibility)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C (minimum requirement)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage rating: May be equal to or greater than 2000V (2kV) without functional degradation
• Tolerance: May be tighter (lower tolerance value) than ±20% without affecting circuit operation
• Packaging format: May differ (e.g., Tape & Reel vs. bulk) based on procurement requirements

The substitute part 1825WC562KAT1A meets all mandatory compatibility criteria while offering improved voltage rating (2500V) and tighter tolerance (±10%), making it a direct upgrade option.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 1825GC562MATME and 1825WC562KAT1A are active products from KYOCERA AVX with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory compliance for current and future applications.

The 1825WC562KAT1A functions as a direct upgrade substitute due to:

• Higher voltage rating (2500V vs. 2000V) provides additional safety margin in high-voltage applications
• Tighter tolerance (±10% vs. ±20%) improves circuit performance consistency
• Identical mechanical footprint and thermal characteristics ensure drop-in compatibility
• Same moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) eliminates special handling requirements

Selection between these parts should be based on application voltage requirements, tolerance specifications, and inventory availability. The substitute part is suitable for any application requiring the main part's specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1825WC562KAT1A replace the 1825GC562MATME in existing designs?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains identical capacitance (5600 pF), temperature coefficient (X7R), package dimensions (1825 / 4564 Metric), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The higher voltage rating and tighter tolerance represent performance improvements without functional incompatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference?

A: The 1825WC562KAT1A is rated for 2500V compared to the main part's 2000V. This higher rating provides additional voltage stress margin and is suitable for applications requiring the 2000V specification or lower.

Q: Does the tolerance difference affect circuit operation?

A: The 1825WC562KAT1A's ±10% tolerance is tighter than the main part's ±20%. This results in more consistent capacitance values across production batches, improving circuit performance predictability without introducing incompatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The main part uses standard packaging while the substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both are surface-mount MLCCs in identical 1825 packages. Packaging format selection depends on procurement volume and assembly process requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring equivalent regulatory compliance and handling requirements.
