5AQ100JOAAM Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 5AQ100JOAAM is a 10 pF ceramic capacitor rated at 500V with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient, manufactured by KYOCERA AVX. This radial, disc-type capacitor is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across temperature variations. The part is currently obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 5AQ100JOAAM is based on the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 10 pF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 500V (minimum requirement; higher ratings acceptable)
• Mounting Configuration: Through-hole radial disc format with kinked formed leads
• Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch compatibility
• Dielectric Type: Ceramic capacitor with stable temperature coefficient

The substitute part D100G20U2JL6UJ5R meets these core substitution criteria. While it features a tighter tolerance (±2% vs. ±5%) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -30°C ~ 85°C), these represent improvements over the original specification and do not compromise compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D100G20U2JL6UJ5R is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete 5AQ100JOAAM. Selection is based on:

• Product Availability: The substitute is active and in stock (927 pcs), whereas the original part is obsolete.
• Regulatory Compliance: The substitute meets ROHS3 requirements, supporting modern manufacturing and environmental standards.
• Electrical Compatibility: Identical capacitance, voltage rating, and lead spacing ensure direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.
• Performance Enhancement: The tighter tolerance (±2%) and extended temperature range provide improved performance margins for the application.
• Certification Status: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected and EAR99 ECCN classifications, ensuring consistent export and supply chain compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D100G20U2JL6UJ5R be used as a direct replacement on existing PCBs designed for the 5AQ100JOAAM?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm), mounting type (through-hole radial), and package configuration (disc). No PCB modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between C0G/NP0 and U2J temperature coefficients?

A: Both are stable ceramic dielectric types suitable for general-purpose applications. C0G/NP0 specifies ±30 ppm/°C stability, while U2J specifies ±22% capacitance change over -55°C to 125°C. The substitute's wider operating range does not affect circuit performance in applications originally designed for -30°C to 85°C operation.

Q: Does the tighter tolerance of the substitute part affect circuit design?

A: The D100G20U2JL6UJ5R's ±2% tolerance is tighter than the original ±5%, representing an improvement. If the original design accounted for ±5% tolerance, the substitute will perform within or better than the specified margin.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between the two parts?

A: The original part is specified with "-" packaging notation. The substitute is supplied in Tape & Box (TB) format, which is standard for through-hole radial capacitors and compatible with automated assembly processes.

Q: What is the inventory status for the substitute part?

A: The D100G20U2JL6UJ5R is available with 927 pcs in stock as new original inventory, ensuring supply continuity for production requirements.
