Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the BFC246751104 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 0.1 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 100V (minimum requirement; higher ratings acceptable)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 63V (minimum requirement; higher ratings acceptable)
• Dielectric Material: Polyester, Metallized (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 105°C (exact match required)
• 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)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

The substitute part 160104K100C-F, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE), meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Physical dimensions may vary within acceptable tolerances for PCB board layout compatibility. Both parts are active products with current manufacturing status and full regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the BFC246751104 and 160104K100C-F are active production components with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Availability: Current inventory levels (BFC246751104: 983 units; 160104K100C-F: 957 units)
• Lead Time: Procurement schedules and supplier delivery performance
• Cost: Unit pricing and volume discounts from respective manufacturers
• PCB Layout Constraints: Physical dimensions (length and height) may require board layout verification, though lead spacing is identical

Both components are suitable for direct substitution in general-purpose applications operating within the specified electrical and thermal parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 160104K100C-F replace the BFC246751104 in my circuit?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all critical parameters: 0.1 µF capacitance, ±10% tolerance, 100V DC rating, polyester metallized dielectric, identical lead spacing (10.00mm), and matching operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C). Both are ROHS3 compliant and active production parts.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The BFC246751104 measures 0.492" L × 0.157" W (12.50mm × 4.00mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.551" (14.00mm). The 160104K100C-F measures 0.512" L × 0.157" W (13.00mm × 4.00mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.374" (9.50mm). Lead spacing remains identical at 0.394" (10.00mm). Verify PCB layout compatibility before substitution.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both the BFC246751104 and 160104K100C-F are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8532.25.0010.

Q: What is the tolerance specification, and does it affect substitution?

A: Both parts carry ±10% tolerance on the 0.1 µF capacitance value. This tolerance is identical and does not restrict substitution.

Q: Can I use these parts interchangeably in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, making them suitable for equivalent performance in thermal environments within this specification.
