Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BFC236526563 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 0.056 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (electrical performance specification)
• Voltage rating: 100V DC minimum (safety and reliability requirement)
• Dielectric type: Polyester, Metallized (electrical characteristics and temperature stability)
• Mounting configuration: Through-hole radial (PCB assembly compatibility)
• Lead spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) (footprint compatibility)
• Physical envelope: 10.00mm x 4.00mm maximum (spatial constraint compliance)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C (application environment compatibility)

The BFC236626563 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility. The transition from MKT365 to MKT366 series represents a product line evolution while maintaining full parameter equivalence.
