Substitution eligibility for the BFC233660153 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 0.015 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 1000V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 300V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.591" (15.00mm) (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins (exact match required)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (required for regulatory alignment)

The R413I215000M1M from KEMET meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The R413I215000M1M is a direct functional equivalent to the BFC233660153. Both components share identical electrical specifications: 0.015 µF capacitance, ±20% tolerance, 1000V DC rating, and 300V AC rating. Both utilize polypropylene metallized dielectric construction and are rated for EMI and RFI suppression applications.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and are suitable for through-hole PCB assembly with standard 15.00mm lead spacing. The R413I215000M1M carries additional automotive qualification (AEC-Q200) and X1, Y2 safety ratings, which provide expanded application scope. Physical dimensions differ slightly, with the KEMET part measuring marginally larger in length but smaller in width and height, which may be advantageous in space-constrained layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the R413I215000M1M replace the BFC233660153 in all applications?

A: Yes. Both components meet identical electrical specifications for capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and dielectric material. Lead spacing is identical at 0.591" (15.00mm), ensuring PCB compatibility. Physical dimension variations are minor and do not affect functional performance in standard through-hole applications.

Q: Are there differences in operating temperature ranges?

A: The BFC233660153 operates from -55°C to 105°C, while the R413I215000M1M operates from -40°C to 110°C. The KEMET part has a narrower lower temperature limit but extends the upper limit by 5°C. Application requirements determine which range is appropriate.

Q: What is the significance of the AEC-Q200 rating on the KEMET part?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard. The R413I215000M1M carries this certification, making it suitable for automotive applications. The Vishay part does not list this certification. If automotive qualification is required, the KEMET part is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do both parts have identical moisture sensitivity?

A: The BFC233660153 is rated MSL 1 (Unlimited). The R413I215000M1M lists MSL as Not Applicable. Both ratings indicate minimal moisture sensitivity concerns for standard handling and storage.

Q: Are there inventory considerations between these parts?

A: The BFC233660153 has 1031 pieces in stock. The R413I215000M1M has 69272 pieces in stock, providing significantly greater availability for high-volume requirements.
