CD15ED620GO3F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD15ED620GO3F is a 62 pF mica capacitor rated for 500 V operation in a radial through-hole package, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). This component is classified as active and suitable for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance and high voltage performance across the operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, inventory management, and continuity of supply for applications where the primary part number becomes unavailable or where alternative compliance certifications are acceptable.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CD15ED620GO3F is determined by equivalence across the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 62 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±2% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 500 V (exact match required)
• Dielectric Material: Mica (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package Configuration: Radial (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.232" (5.90mm) (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.449" L x 0.169" W, Height 0.358" max (exact match required)

The substitute part CM05ED620GO3 meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Differences in RoHS compliance status, REACH classification, and moisture sensitivity level do not affect functional interchangeability for applications where these certifications are not mandated.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CD15ED620GO3F is the primary selection for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. This part number is active and carries full regulatory certification for restricted substance compliance.

CM05ED620GO3 is functionally equivalent and electrically interchangeable for all applications where RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are not contractual or regulatory requirements. This part is also active and maintains identical electrical performance and physical compatibility. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for legacy systems, non-regulated applications, or where cost considerations and inventory availability justify the use of a non-compliant alternative.

Both parts are manufactured by the same supplier and share identical core specifications. The choice between them depends solely on compliance requirements specific to the end application and regulatory jurisdiction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CM05ED620GO3 be used as a direct replacement for CD15ED620GO3F in all applications?

A: CM05ED620GO3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to CD15ED620GO3F. Direct substitution is possible in applications where RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are not required. Applications subject to RoHS3 or REACH regulations must use CD15ED620GO3F.

Q: Are there physical compatibility issues when substituting CM05ED620GO3 for CD15ED620GO3F?

A: No. Both parts share identical lead spacing (0.232" / 5.90mm), physical dimensions (0.449" L x 0.169" W), and maximum seated height (0.358" / 9.10mm). PCB footprints and mounting requirements are identical.

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

A: The series designation reflects internal CDE product line classification. Both series contain mica capacitors with identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 62 pF, 500 V, ±2% tolerance configuration. Series designation does not affect functional performance or interchangeability.

Q: Why does CD15ED620GO3F have ROHS3 compliance while CM05ED620GO3 does not?

A: The two part numbers represent different manufacturing batches or product generations from Cornell Dubilier Electronics. CD15ED620GO3F was manufactured to meet current RoHS3 requirements, while CM05ED620GO3 predates or was produced outside RoHS3 compliance mandates. Both parts are electrically identical.

Q: Can I mix CD15ED620GO3F and CM05ED620GO3 in the same circuit board assembly?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. Mixing is permissible from a functional standpoint. However, if the application or end product requires RoHS3 compliance certification, all capacitors in the assembly must use compliant part numbers such as CD15ED620GO3F.

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

A: Both parts specify 0.232" (5.90mm) lead spacing. This dimension is controlled and identical between the two part numbers, ensuring compatibility with standard 0.2" pitch PCB layouts.

Q: Are there any temperature or voltage derating considerations when using either part?

A: Both parts operate across -55°C to 125°C and are rated for 500 V. No derating differences exist between CD15ED620GO3F and CM05ED620GO3. Application-specific derating curves, if required, apply equally to both parts.
