Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CD10FD101FO3 is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part must match the following criteria:

• Capacitance value: 100 pF
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Rated voltage: 500 V
• Dielectric material: Mica
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package configuration: Radial
• Lead spacing: 0.142" (3.60 mm)
• Physical dimensions: 0.370" L x 0.201" W (9.40 mm x 5.10 mm)
• Maximum seated height: 0.350" (8.90 mm)

The CD10FD101FO3F meets all these requirements and is classified as a parametric equivalent. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute relates to regulatory compliance status, not electrical or mechanical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CD10FD101FO3 and CD10FD101FO3F are electrically and mechanically identical 100 pF mica capacitors with 500 V rating and ±1% tolerance. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and compliance requirements:

CD10FD101FO3 is appropriate for applications where RoHS compliance is not mandated and REACH-affected material sourcing is acceptable. This part maintains active production status with higher current inventory availability (846 units).

CD10FD101FO3F is appropriate for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and REACH-unaffected material sourcing. This part also maintains active production status with adequate inventory (707 units). Selection of this variant ensures compliance with European Union directives and regulations applicable to electrical and electronic equipment.

Both parts share identical electrical performance, temperature stability, and physical form factor, ensuring direct interchangeability from a circuit design and PCB layout perspective.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are CD10FD101FO3 and CD10FD101FO3F electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical capacitance (100 pF), tolerance (±1%), rated voltage (500 V), dielectric material (mica), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). They are parametric equivalents with no electrical performance differences.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical physical dimensions, lead spacing (0.142" / 3.60 mm), and radial through-hole mounting configuration. They are mechanically interchangeable without PCB redesign.
