Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BFC236525334 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must maintain identical specifications in the following categories:

Electrical Parameters: Capacitance value (0.33 µF), tolerance (±10%), DC voltage rating (100V), AC voltage rating (63V), and dielectric material composition (polyester, metallized).

Mechanical Parameters: Mounting configuration (through-hole radial), physical dimensions (10.50mm × 6.00mm), seated height (15.50mm maximum), lead spacing (5.00mm), and termination type (PC pins).

Compliance & Status: RoHS3 compliance and active product status ensure long-term availability and regulatory alignment.

The BFC236625334 satisfies all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent, with the distinction of active product status and improved packaging availability.
