Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BFC237662113 is based on the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Exact match at 0.011 µF
• Tolerance: ±5% maintained across all substitutes
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP) required for application compatibility
• Mounting Type: Through-hole radial configuration mandatory
• Termination Style: PC pins required for PCB compatibility
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 100°C range maintained
• Voltage Rating: Substitute must meet or exceed 630V DC minimum requirement
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 compliance required for regulatory alignment

The substitute part KP1836311134 satisfies all substitution criteria with enhanced voltage rating (1600V DC) and active product status, providing superior reliability margin and continued manufacturer support.

Parameter Comparison
