Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BFC236522274 is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The following criteria establish valid substitution:

Electrical equivalence requires identical capacitance value (0.27 µF), tolerance (±5%), and voltage ratings (100V DC / 63V AC). The dielectric material (polyester, metallized) and operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C) must remain unchanged.

Mechanical compatibility requires matching package type (radial), mounting method (through hole), physical dimensions (0.413" L × 0.236" W), seated height (0.610" max), lead spacing (0.197"), and termination style (PC pins).

Compliance requirements include ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 ECCN classification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BFC236622274 is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the BFC236522274. Both components share identical capacitance, voltage ratings, dielectric composition, temperature operating range, and physical form factor. The primary distinction is product status: BFC236522274 is obsolete while BFC236622274 is active in production.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical EAR99 ECCN classification. The series designation differs (MKT365 versus MKT366), reflecting manufacturing evolution within the Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components product line while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.

For new designs or replacement applications, BFC236622274 is the appropriate selection due to active product status and continued availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
