BFC238564102 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BFC238564102 is a 1000 pF film capacitor manufactured by Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components, rated for 2000V DC operation with polypropylene metallized dielectric. This radial through-hole component is designed for DC link filtering, high-frequency switching, and high pulse applications requiring stable capacitance across temperature ranges from -55°C to 110°C. The part maintains Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, inventory management, and supply chain continuity while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility within specified tolerance parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the BFC238564102 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 1000 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 2000V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 700V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 110°C minimum (equal or wider acceptable)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.394" (10.00mm) (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins (exact match required)

Two substitute parts meet these criteria and are listed below.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—BFC238564102, BFC238560102, and MKP1U011003C00JSSD—are electrically and mechanically equivalent for applications requiring 1000 pF, 2000V DC rated film capacitors with radial through-hole mounting.

BFC238560102 is a direct parametric equivalent manufactured by the same supplier (Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components) within the MKP385 series. This part offers superior inventory availability (10378 units) compared to the main part number and maintains identical electrical specifications and physical dimensions.

MKP1U011003C00JSSD, manufactured by WIMA, meets all critical electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. Physical dimensions show minor variations: length is 0.512" (13.00mm) versus 0.492" (12.50mm), and seated height is 0.354" (9.00mm) versus 0.394" (10.00mm). Both parts maintain the required 0.394" (10.00mm) lead spacing for PCB compatibility. This part carries REACH Unaffected status and Not Applicable MSL rating.

All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and maintain Active product status, supporting long-term supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BFC238560102 be used as a direct replacement for BFC238564102?

A: Yes. BFC238560102 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical ratings (1000 pF, ±5%, 2000V DC, 700V AC), dielectric material (polypropylene metallized), operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C), and physical dimensions (0.492" L x 0.157" W, 0.394" lead spacing). Both are manufactured by Vishay within the MKP385 series and are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between MKP1U011003C00JSSD and BFC238564102?

A: MKP1U011003C00JSSD has a length of 0.512" (13.00mm) compared to 0.492" (12.50mm) for BFC238564102, and a seated height of 0.354" (9.00mm) compared to 0.394" (10.00mm). The critical lead spacing of 0.394" (10.00mm) is identical, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility. Physical dimension variations do not affect electrical performance or circuit functionality.

Q: Are all three parts suitable for DC link and high-frequency switching applications?

A: BFC238564102 and BFC238560102 are both specified for DC link, DC filtering, high-frequency switching, and high pulse DV/DT applications. MKP1U011003C00JSSD is specified for high pulse DV/DT applications. All three parts meet the electrical requirements for these application categories based on their 2000V DC rating, polypropylene dielectric, and operating temperature range.
