Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the BFC236526683 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 0.068 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 100V DC minimum / 63V AC minimum (exact match required)
• Dielectric material: Polyester, Metallized (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C (exact match required)
• Mounting configuration: Through Hole Radial (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions and lead spacing: 10.00mm × 4.00mm with 5.00mm lead spacing (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins (exact match required)

The BFC236626683 qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all specified parameters. The primary distinction is product status: BFC236626683 is active and available, whereas BFC236526683 is obsolete.
