Vishay Cera-Mite 562R5GAT15 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Vishay Cera-Mite 562R5GAT15 is a 150 pF ceramic capacitor rated for 1000V (1kV) with X5F temperature coefficient and ±20% tolerance. This radial, disc-type capacitor is designed for through-hole mounting in general purpose applications. The part is currently active and in stock with 976 units available. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when component availability changes, procurement lead times extend, or design flexibility permits tolerance or temperature coefficient variations within acceptable operating parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 562R5GAT15 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

Capacitance: 150 pF (exact match required)
Voltage Rating: 1000V (1kV) minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
Mounting Type: Through Hole
Package Type: Radial, Disc
Lead Spacing: 0.252" (6.40mm)

Allowable Variations:

Tolerance: ±20% or tighter (±10% acceptable as upgrade)
Temperature Coefficient: X5F or equivalent performance range
Operating Temperature: -55°C minimum and 105°C maximum or broader range
Physical dimensions: Minor variations acceptable if lead spacing and mounting compatibility maintained

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: the Vishay Cera-Mite 562R10TST15 (tolerance upgrade to ±10%) and the Vishay Beyschlag S151K29S3NN63L6R (different temperature coefficient S3N with extended upper temperature limit to 125°C).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

562R10TST15 (Upgrade Substitute): This part is functionally equivalent with improved tolerance specification (±10% versus ±20%). Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Cera-Mite within the same series, share identical voltage rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and physical lead spacing. The 562R10TST15 is suitable for applications where tighter capacitance tolerance improves circuit performance. All compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected) are maintained. This substitute provides higher inventory availability (2024 units).

S151K29S3NN63L6R (MFR Recommended Substitute): This part maintains the 150 pF capacitance, 1000V rating, and ±10% tolerance. The temperature coefficient differs (S3N versus X5F) and the operating temperature range extends to 125°C. Physical dimensions are larger (0.295" diameter, 0.484" height versus 0.252" diameter, 0.377" height), requiring verification of PCB layout compatibility. Lead spacing remains compatible at 0.252" (6.40mm). All compliance certifications are maintained. This substitute offers the highest inventory availability (8408 units) and extended temperature performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 562R10TST15 be used as a direct replacement for the 562R5GAT15?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (150 pF), voltage rating (1000V), temperature coefficient (X5F), operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C), and physical lead spacing (0.252"). The 562R10TST15 provides tighter tolerance (±10% versus ±20%), which is an improvement. Mounting footprint and PCB layout compatibility are identical.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between the main part and the S151K29S3NN63L6R?

A: The S151K29S3NN63L6R has a larger body diameter (0.295" versus 0.252") and greater seated height (0.484" versus 0.377"). Lead spacing remains at 0.252" (6.40mm). PCB layout must accommodate the larger radial disc body. Verify clearance around the component location before substitution.

Q: Does the S151K29S3NN63L6R temperature coefficient difference affect compatibility?

A: The S151K29S3NN63L6R uses S3N temperature coefficient with an extended operating range to 125°C, compared to X5F at 105°C maximum. Both coefficients are suitable for general purpose applications. The S3N coefficient provides broader temperature stability if the application operates at elevated temperatures. Verify circuit requirements before substitution.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts (562R5GAT15, 562R10TST15, and S151K29S3NN63L6R) are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for maximum inventory availability?

A: The S151K29S3NN63L6R offers the highest inventory (8408 units in stock). However, physical dimension verification is required due to larger body size. The 562R10TST15 provides a balance of high availability (2024 units) with identical physical dimensions and improved tolerance specification.
