Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 1800 pF (identical)
• Tolerance: ±10% (identical)
• Dielectric Material: Polyester, Metallized (identical)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (identical)
• Package / Case: Radial (identical)
• Lead Spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm) (identical)
• Termination: PC Pins (identical)

Enhanced Specifications: The BFC237051182 provides a higher DC voltage rating of 400V compared to the original 63V specification, along with an extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. These characteristics ensure compatibility in applications where the original part was specified while offering improved performance margins.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BFC237051182 is the designated substitute for the obsolete BQ014D0182K. The substitute part maintains electrical equivalence through identical capacitance, tolerance, and dielectric specifications while providing enhanced voltage rating and temperature operating range. The BFC237051182 carries active product status with ROHS3 compliance and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment. Physical dimensions remain compatible with existing PCB layouts, with lead spacing and mounting configuration unchanged.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BFC237051182 be used as a direct replacement for the BQ014D0182K?

A: Yes. The substitute part maintains identical capacitance (1800 pF), tolerance (±10%), dielectric material (polyester metallized), mounting type (through hole radial), lead spacing (0.200"), and termination (PC pins). Physical dimensions are compatible with existing board layouts.

Q: What are the key differences between these parts?

A: The BFC237051182 provides a higher DC voltage rating (400V versus 63V), extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C versus -55°C to 100°C), and active product status with ROHS3 compliance. The substitute is slightly shorter in length (7.20mm versus 7.50mm).

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with PCB layout?

A: No. Both parts use identical lead spacing (0.200" / 5.08mm) and seated height (0.256" / 6.50mm). The minor length difference (0.295" to 0.283") does not affect footprint compatibility.

Q: What certifications does the substitute part carry?

A: The BFC237051182 is ROHS3 compliant and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The original BQ014D0182K does not specify these certifications.

Q: Is the substitute part suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. The BFC237051182 is rated for automotive applications with AEC-Q200 qualification and includes long-life features.
