Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CD15FD221JO3F is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part CD15FD221JO3 shares identical specifications in the following key areas:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Capacitance: 220 pF
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Voltage Rating: 500 V
• Dielectric Material: Mica
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package Type: Radial
• Lead Spacing: 0.232" (5.90mm)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.461" L x 0.201" W (11.70mm x 5.10mm)
• Height Seated (Max): 0.382" (9.70mm)

The CD15FD221JO3 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on complete alignment with these critical specifications. Both parts belong to the CD15 series from Cornell Dubilier Electronics and maintain identical functional and physical characteristics required for direct substitution in circuit applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CD15FD221JO3F Selection Criteria: The CD15FD221JO3F is the preferred choice for applications subject to RoHS3 compliance requirements or REACH-regulated environments. This part carries ROHS3 Compliant certification and REACH Unaffected status, making it suitable for consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial applications with strict environmental compliance mandates. Current inventory of 938 pieces supports immediate deployment for production runs requiring certified components.

CD15FD221JO3 Selection Criteria: The CD15FD221JO3 serves as a functional equivalent for applications where RoHS3 compliance is not a contractual or regulatory requirement. This part is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected, restricting its use to legacy systems, military applications with specific exemptions, or industrial equipment without environmental compliance constraints. Higher inventory availability (4785 pieces) provides extended supply security for high-volume production scenarios where compliance certifications are not applicable.

Substitution Decision Logic: Selection between these two parts depends exclusively on compliance requirements specified in the application's design documentation or customer contract. Both parts deliver identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility. The choice is determined by regulatory environment and certification requirements, not by technical performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD15FD221JO3 be used as a direct replacement for CD15FD221JO3F in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is possible only in applications where RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status are not required. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. Compliance requirements must be verified against application specifications before substitution.

Q: What is the difference between CD15FD221JO3F and CD15FD221JO3?

A: The parts are identical in all electrical and mechanical parameters: 220 pF capacitance, ±5% tolerance, 500 V rating, mica dielectric, -55°C to 125°C operating range, through-hole radial mounting, and 0.232" lead spacing. The differences are limited to compliance certifications: CD15FD221JO3F is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, while CD15FD221JO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected.

Q: Will the physical dimensions and lead spacing of CD15FD221JO3 fit the same PCB footprint as CD15FD221JO3F?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical physical dimensions (0.461" L x 0.201" W), height seated maximum (0.382"), and lead spacing (0.232" or 5.90mm). PCB footprints designed for either part are fully compatible with the other.

Q: Which part should be selected for consumer electronics applications?

A: CD15FD221JO3F is the appropriate selection for consumer electronics due to its ROHS3 Compliant certification, which aligns with regulatory requirements in most consumer product markets.

Q: Are there inventory differences between these substitute parts?

A: Yes. CD15FD221JO3F has 938 pieces in stock, while CD15FD221JO3 has 4785 pieces available. Inventory levels may influence sourcing decisions for high-volume production requirements.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in military or aerospace applications?

A: Interchangeability depends on specific military or aerospace standards referenced in the application design. Compliance certifications and material traceability requirements must be verified against applicable specifications before substitution decisions are made.
