Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—1825SC153MAT1A\SB, 1825GC153KAT1A, and 1825WC153KAT1A—are active production components from KYOCERA AVX with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory compliance for industrial and commercial applications.

The 1825SC153MAT1A\SB operates at 1500V rating with ±20% tolerance. The 1825GC153KAT1A provides a 2000V rating with improved ±10% tolerance, offering 33% additional voltage margin. The 1825WC153KAT1A delivers the highest voltage rating at 2500V with ±10% tolerance, providing 67% additional voltage margin over the primary part.

Selection between these parts depends on circuit voltage requirements and tolerance specifications. All parts share identical capacitance values, package geometry, thermal characteristics, and moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring direct mechanical and electrical interchangeability within the specified parameter constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 1825GC153KAT1A or 1825WC153KAT1A be used as direct replacements for 1825SC153MAT1A\SB?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain identical capacitance (0.015 µF), package format (1825), physical dimensions, temperature coefficient (X7R), and operating temperature range. The higher voltage ratings (2000V and 2500V) and tighter tolerance (±10%) are compatible with circuits designed for the 1500V rated part, as they exceed the original specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the three parts?

A: The primary differences are voltage rating and tolerance. The 1825SC153MAT1A\SB is rated for 1500V with ±20% tolerance. The 1825GC153KAT1A is rated for 2000V with ±10% tolerance. The 1825WC153KAT1A is rated for 2500V with ±10% tolerance. Capacitance value and all other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Are these parts pin-compatible?

A: Yes. All three parts use the 1825 (4564 Metric) surface-mount package with identical physical dimensions (4.50mm L × 6.40mm W × 2.54mm Max Thickness), ensuring direct PCB footprint compatibility without layout modifications.

Q: Do all parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, meeting identical regulatory and environmental requirements.

Q: Which part should be selected for maximum design margin?

A: The 1825WC153KAT1A provides the highest voltage rating (2500V) and tightest tolerance (±10%), offering maximum design margin for voltage stress and capacitance variation across the operating temperature range.
