Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the BFC238350822 is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

• Capacitance value: 8200 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Dielectric material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole Radial (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.591" (15.00mm) (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins (exact match required)

Substitute parts may vary in:

• DC voltage rating (equal to or greater than 1600V)
• AC voltage rating (equal to or greater than 550V)
• Operating temperature range (equal to or greater than -55°C ~ 105°C)
• Physical dimensions (length and height may differ within radial package constraints)
• Manufacturer and series designation

The identified substitutes B32672L1822J000 and B32672L8822J000 meet all equivalence criteria while offering enhanced voltage ratings and temperature performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts B32672L1822J000 and B32672L8822J000 are active production components manufactured by EPCOS - TDK Electronics and maintain full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, matching the regulatory requirements of the original BFC238350822.

B32672L1822J000 provides direct electrical equivalence with identical 1600V DC and ±5% tolerance specifications, with enhanced AC voltage rating (600V vs. 550V) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 110°C vs. -55°C ~ 105°C). Physical dimensions are slightly larger in length (18.00mm vs. 17.50mm) but reduced in width (6.00mm vs. 8.50mm) and height (11.00mm vs. 15.00mm).

B32672L8822J000 offers elevated voltage performance with 2000V DC rating while maintaining the same capacitance and tolerance. AC voltage rating is 700V. Operating temperature range extends to 110°C. Physical footprint is comparable to B32672L1822J000 with slightly increased height (12.00mm vs. 11.00mm).

Selection between substitutes depends on circuit voltage requirements and available PCB space for component mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can B32672L1822J000 or B32672L8822J000 be used as direct replacements for BFC238350822?

A: Yes, both parts are electrically and mechanically compatible substitutes. All three capacitors share identical capacitance (8200 pF), tolerance (±5%), dielectric material (polypropylene metallized), mounting type (through hole radial), lead spacing (15.00mm), and termination (PC pins). The substitute parts meet or exceed the voltage and temperature specifications of the original part.

Q: What are the key differences between the two substitute parts?

A: B32672L1822J000 maintains the original 1600V DC rating with enhanced AC voltage (600V vs. 550V). B32672L8822J000 provides higher voltage capability at 2000V DC with 700V AC rating. Both offer extended operating temperature to 110°C. Physical dimensions differ slightly; B32672L8822J000 has marginally greater height (12.00mm vs. 11.00mm).

Q: Are there any PCB layout considerations when substituting these parts?

A: Lead spacing remains constant at 15.00mm across all three parts, ensuring PCB hole compatibility. However, physical dimensions vary: the original BFC238350822 measures 17.50mm length x 8.50mm width, while both EPCOS substitutes measure 18.00mm length x 6.00mm width. Height differences range from 11.00mm to 15.00mm. Verify available component clearance on the PCB before substitution.

Q: Do all three parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. BFC238350822, B32672L1822J000, and B32672L8822J000 are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting identical regulatory standards for electronic component use.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for high-temperature applications?

A: Both substitute parts extend the operating temperature range to -55°C ~ 110°C compared to the original -55°C ~ 105°C specification. Either substitute is suitable for applications requiring the extended upper temperature limit.
