Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The KEMET B-06-R-25 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the B-06-R-50 based on the following critical parameters:

  • Identical impedance specification: 40 Ohms @ 10 MHz
  • Identical current rating: 5A maximum
  • Identical filter type: Signal Line with 1 line configuration
  • Identical mounting type: Through Hole radial package
  • Identical operating temperature range: -20°C ~ 70°C
  • Identical RoHS3 compliance and regulatory status

The primary difference between these parts is the height specification. The B-06-R-50 has a maximum height of 0.394" (10.00mm), while the B-06-R-25 has a maximum height of 0.236" (6.00mm). Both parts share the same base product number (B-06-R) and identical lateral dimensions of 0.236" L x 0.276" W (6.00mm x 7.00mm).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the B-06-R-50 and B-06-R-25 are Active products with full ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical performance specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on physical space constraints within the PCB layout. The B-06-R-25 offers a reduced height profile of 6.00mm compared to the B-06-R-50 at 10.00mm, making it suitable for applications with vertical clearance limitations. Both parts maintain identical impedance, current handling, and thermal operating ranges, ensuring functional interchangeability in signal line filtering applications where the height differential does not create mechanical conflicts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the B-06-R-25 replace the B-06-R-50 in my circuit?

A: Yes, the B-06-R-25 is electrically equivalent to the B-06-R-50. Both parts provide identical impedance (40 Ohms @ 10 MHz), current rating (5A), and operating temperature range (-20°C ~ 70°C). Substitution is valid provided the reduced height of 6.00mm does not conflict with your PCB layout requirements.

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

A: The primary difference is the component height. The B-06-R-50 measures 10.00mm in height, while the B-06-R-25 measures 6.00mm. All other electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both the B-06-R-50 and B-06-R-25 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Do these parts have the same footprint?

A: Both parts share identical lateral dimensions of 6.00mm L x 7.00mm W and use the same radial through-hole mounting configuration. The height difference does not affect the PCB footprint or lead spacing.

Q: Which part should I select for space-constrained applications?

A: The B-06-R-25 is recommended for applications with vertical clearance limitations due to its reduced 6.00mm height profile. If vertical space is not a constraint, either part is functionally equivalent.
