Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part 564RC0GAA302EH180J is qualified as a direct functional equivalent based on the following criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 18 pF (identical)
• Tolerance: ±5% (identical)
• Temperature Coefficient: C0G, NP0 (identical)
• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C ~ 105°C (identical)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (identical)
• Package Type: Radial, Disc (identical)
• Lead Style: Straight (identical)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)

Upgrade Characteristic:

• Voltage Rating: 3000V (3kV) versus 2000V (2kV) — the substitute provides higher voltage capability, making it suitable for applications requiring the original 2kV rating while offering additional design margin.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 564RC0GAA302EH180J is the qualified substitute for the obsolete 564RC0GAA202EF180J. Selection is based on:

• Product Status: The substitute is active, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.
• Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, meeting regulatory requirements.
• Electrical Compatibility: Identical capacitance, tolerance, and temperature coefficient ensure functional equivalence in circuit applications designed for the original 2kV rating.
• Voltage Margin: The 3kV rating of the substitute provides additional safety margin for applications operating at or below 2kV.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 564RC0GAA302EH180J be used as a direct replacement for the 564RC0GAA202EF180J?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (18 pF), tolerance (±5%), temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0), and operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 105°C). The substitute's higher voltage rating (3kV versus 2kV) does not prevent its use in circuits designed for the original 2kV specification.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The voltage rating differs: the original is rated at 2000V (2kV), while the substitute is rated at 3000V (3kV). All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Are there any packaging or mounting differences?

A: No. Both parts use identical through-hole radial disc packaging with straight leads, ensuring mechanical compatibility in PCB layouts.

Q: Why is the original part obsolete?

A: The 564RC0GAA202EF180J is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The 564RC0GAA302EH180J is the active equivalent within the Cera-Mite 564R series.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8532.24.0060) classifications.
