CD15FD241GO3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD15FD241GO3 is a 240 pF mica capacitor rated for 500 V with ±2% tolerance, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). This through-hole radial component operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and is classified as a general-purpose capacitor. The part is currently active in production with 793 units in stock.

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary when the primary part number becomes unavailable, when procurement lead times require alternative sourcing, or when design specifications allow for functionally identical alternatives that meet all electrical and mechanical requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CD15FD241GO3 is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The following parameters must match identically for a part to function as a direct substitute:

• Capacitance Value: 240 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 to 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: 0.461" L x 0.201" W (11.70mm x 5.10mm) (exact match required)
• Maximum Seated Height: 0.382" (9.70mm) (exact match required)

Substitute parts must be from the same CD15 series manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics to ensure consistency in construction quality and performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CD15FD241GO3F serves as a parametric equivalent to the CD15FD241GO3, with all electrical and mechanical specifications matching identically. Both parts are active products manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics within the CD15 series.

The primary distinction between these parts lies in regulatory compliance status. The CD15FD241GO3F carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, whereas the CD15FD241GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Selection between these parts should be based on the regulatory requirements of the end application and target market.

Both parts carry the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8532.29.0020) classifications. The CD15FD241GO3F currently maintains higher inventory availability at 974 units compared to 793 units for the CD15FD241GO3.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD15FD241GO3F be used as a direct replacement for CD15FD241GO3?

A: Yes. The CD15FD241GO3F is electrically and mechanically identical to the CD15FD241GO3. All critical parameters including capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, temperature range, mounting type, package configuration, lead spacing, and physical dimensions are equivalent. Both parts are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics within the CD15 series.

Q: What is the difference between CD15FD241GO3 and CD15FD241GO3F?

A: The parts are functionally identical. The differences are regulatory: CD15FD241GO3F is ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, while CD15FD241GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Selection depends on application regulatory requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical dimensions of 0.461" L x 0.201" W (11.70mm x 5.10mm), maximum seated height of 0.382" (9.70mm), and lead spacing of 0.232" (5.90mm). They are interchangeable in PCB layouts and through-hole mounting applications.

Q: Do these parts have the same temperature operating range?

A: Yes. Both CD15FD241GO3 and CD15FD241GO3F operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Q: What is the lead spacing for these radial capacitors?

A: The lead spacing is 0.232" (5.90mm) for both parts, which determines PCB hole pattern compatibility.
