Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BFC236511124 is based on strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 0.12 µF
  • Capacitance tolerance: ±10%
  • Voltage rating: 63V DC / 40V AC minimum
  • Dielectric type: Polyester, Metallized
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 105°C
  • Mounting configuration: Through Hole Radial
  • Physical dimensions: 10.00mm L x 4.00mm W
  • Lead spacing: 5.00mm
  • Termination style: PC Pins
  • Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The BFC236611124 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications. The primary distinction is product status and packaging format.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BFC236611124 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete BFC236511124. Both components maintain identical electrical performance specifications, mechanical form factors, and regulatory compliance certifications. The transition from MKT365 to MKT366 series reflects product line evolution while preserving functional equivalence.

Selection of BFC236611124 is appropriate for direct replacement applications where the main part is no longer available. The active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. Packaging format differs (Tape & Reel versus bulk), which may affect procurement and assembly processes but does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BFC236611124 be used as a direct replacement for BFC236511124?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical specifications (0.12 µF, ±10%, 63V DC), dielectric material (polyester metallized), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), and mechanical dimensions (10.00mm x 4.00mm, 5.00mm lead spacing). All regulatory certifications are equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The BFC236511124 is classified as obsolete. The BFC236611124 is the active equivalent from the same manufacturer, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The BFC236511124 is supplied in bulk packaging, while BFC236611124 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. This affects procurement and automated assembly processes but does not alter electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8532.25.0010).

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain the same radial package dimensions: 10.00mm length, 4.00mm width, 13.50mm maximum seated height, and 5.00mm lead spacing.
