Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the CD15FC561JO3 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The substitution logic requires equivalence across all critical parameters: capacitance value (560 pF), tolerance specification (±5%), voltage rating (300 V), dielectric material (mica), mounting technology (through-hole radial), lead spacing (0.232" / 5.90mm), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C).

Physical dimensions including length, width, and maximum seated height must remain within the specified tolerances to ensure PCB footprint compatibility and assembly feasibility. The CD15 series designation confirms product family consistency.

Substitute parts may differ in regulatory compliance status (RoHS, REACH) and packaging configurations, provided all electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical. These compliance differences do not affect functional equivalence but may impact procurement, documentation, and end-use application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CD15FC561JO3F serves as a direct functional equivalent to the CD15FC561JO3, with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and compliance requirements specific to the end application.

CD15FC561JO3 is appropriate for applications where RoHS non-compliance and REACH-affected status are acceptable or where legacy component specifications are required.

CD15FC561JO3F is the preferred selection for new designs and applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. This variant provides equivalent performance with enhanced regulatory alignment for modern manufacturing and export requirements.

Both parts are Active products with confirmed inventory availability. The choice between them does not affect circuit performance, thermal characteristics, or mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD15FC561JO3F be used as a direct replacement for CD15FC561JO3 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The CD15FC561JO3F is electrically and mechanically identical to the CD15FC561JO3. All critical parameters including capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature range, lead spacing, and physical dimensions are equivalent. The substitute part will function identically in the circuit without design modification.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are regulatory compliance status. The CD15FC561JO3F is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, while the CD15FC561JO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Electrical and mechanical performance are identical.

Q: Are the physical dimensions and PCB footprints identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical dimensions (0.461" L x 0.209" W, 11.70mm x 5.30mm), lead spacing (0.232" / 5.90mm), and maximum seated height (0.382" / 9.70mm). PCB layouts and assembly fixtures require no modification.

Q: Which part should be specified for new production?

A: The CD15FC561JO3F is recommended for new designs due to ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, which align with current regulatory requirements and supply chain standards.

Q: Is there any performance difference in operating temperature range?

A: No. Both parts operate identically across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range with no performance variation.

Q: Can these parts be mixed in the same production batch?

A: Yes. Since all electrical and mechanical parameters are identical, both parts can be used interchangeably within the same assembly without affecting circuit performance or reliability.
