CD15ED360GO3F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD15ED360GO3F is a 36 pF mica capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) with a rated voltage of 500 V and ±2% tolerance. This radial through-hole component is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently active in production and ROHS3 compliant.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when component availability is limited, supply chain disruptions occur, or when design requirements permit alternative configurations within the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CD15ED360GO3F is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Capacitance: 36 pF
• Tolerance: ±2%
• Voltage - Rated: 500 V
• Dielectric Material: Mica

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial
• Lead Spacing: 0.232" (5.90mm)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.449" L x 0.169" W (11.40mm x 4.30mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.358" (9.10mm)

Functional Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C
• Features: General Purpose

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria without exception. Compliance certifications and regulatory status may differ between the main part and substitutes and are noted separately in the parameter comparison table.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CD15ED360GO3F (Primary Part): This part is the preferred selection for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The CD15ED360GO3F maintains active production status and is available in the highest inventory quantity (1035 units).

CD15ED360GO3 (Substitute - Same Series): This part is electrically and mechanically identical to the CD15ED360GO3F but differs in regulatory compliance. The CD15ED360GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Selection of this substitute is appropriate only when regulatory requirements do not mandate ROHS3 compliance or REACH unaffected status. Inventory availability is 803 units.

CM05ED360GO3 (Substitute - Alternative Series): This part is electrically and mechanically identical to the CD15ED360GO3F but belongs to the CM05 series rather than the CD15 series. The CM05ED360GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Moisture Sensitivity Level is rated as 1 (Unlimited), whereas the main part lists MSL as Not Applicable. Selection of this substitute is appropriate only when regulatory requirements do not mandate ROHS3 compliance or REACH unaffected status. Inventory availability is 899 units.

All three parts share identical electrical performance, mechanical fit, and thermal operating range. Selection between them depends solely on regulatory compliance requirements and series preference within the design specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD15ED360GO3 be used as a direct replacement for CD15ED360GO3F?

A: CD15ED360GO3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to CD15ED360GO3F. Both parts have identical capacitance (36 pF), tolerance (±2%), voltage rating (500 V), physical dimensions, and lead spacing. The primary difference is regulatory compliance: CD15ED360GO3F is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, while CD15ED360GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Direct replacement is possible only if the application does not require ROHS3 or REACH compliance.

Q: What is the difference between the CD15 and CM05 series?

A: Both CD15ED360GO3 and CM05ED360GO3 are electrically and mechanically identical 36 pF, 500 V mica capacitors with identical physical dimensions and lead spacing. The primary differences are the series designation and regulatory status. CM05ED360GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected, with MSL rated as 1 (Unlimited). Selection between series depends on design specification requirements and regulatory compliance mandates.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts—CD15ED360GO3F, CD15ED360GO3, and CM05ED360GO3—have identical physical dimensions of 0.449" L x 0.169" W (11.40mm x 4.30mm), identical lead spacing of 0.232" (5.90mm), and identical maximum seated height of 0.358" (9.10mm). All are radial through-hole components suitable for identical PCB layouts.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: For new designs, CD15ED360GO3F is the recommended selection. It is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and maintains active production status with the highest inventory availability (1035 units). This part meets current regulatory requirements and ensures long-term supply chain stability.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Electrical and mechanical interchangeability is confirmed across all three parts. However, regulatory compliance differences must be evaluated against the application's requirements. If the existing design specifies ROHS3 compliance or REACH unaffected status, only CD15ED360GO3F is suitable. If no such requirements exist, CD15ED360GO3 or CM05ED360GO3 may be used as substitutes.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for all substitute parts?

A: All three parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Temperature performance is equivalent across CD15ED360GO3F, CD15ED360GO3, and CM05ED360GO3.
