Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CD15FD331GO3 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 330 pF
• Tolerance: ±2%
• Voltage - Rated: 500 V
• Dielectric Material: Mica
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial
• Lead Spacing: 0.232" (5.90 mm)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.469" L x 0.209" W (11.90 mm x 5.30 mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.390" (9.90 mm)

All identified substitute parts meet these mandatory parameters without deviation. Variations in RoHS compliance status, REACH classification, and MSL rating do not affect electrical or mechanical interchangeability and are noted separately for procurement and regulatory compliance purposes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CD15FD331GO3F is a direct parametric equivalent to the CD15FD331GO3 within the same CD15 series. The primary distinction is RoHS3 compliance status; CD15FD331GO3F meets ROHS3 requirements and is REACH Unaffected, making it suitable for applications subject to European Union environmental regulations. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection of CD15FD331GO3F is appropriate when regulatory compliance with RoHS3 and REACH exemption status is required.

CM05FD331GO3 is a parametric equivalent from the CM05 series with identical electrical and mechanical characteristics. This part maintains RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status consistent with the primary part. The MSL rating for CM05FD331GO3 is specified as 1 (Unlimited), compared to Not Applicable for the CD15 series variants. Selection of CM05FD331GO3 is appropriate when series interchangeability is acceptable and inventory availability from the CM05 line is preferred.

All three parts are active products with confirmed stock availability and are suitable for direct substitution based on electrical performance and physical form factor.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD15FD331GO3F be used as a direct replacement for CD15FD331GO3?

A: Yes. CD15FD331GO3F is a parametric equivalent with identical capacitance (330 pF), tolerance (±2%), voltage rating (500 V), dielectric material (Mica), temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and physical dimensions. The primary difference is RoHS3 compliance status. Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically valid.

Q: What is the difference between CD15FD331GO3 and CM05FD331GO3?

A: Both parts are parametrically equivalent with identical electrical specifications and physical form factors. The difference is the product series designation (CD15 versus CM05). CM05FD331GO3 carries an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), while CD15 variants list MSL as Not Applicable. Series interchangeability is supported by matching all critical parameters.

Q: Are there any physical dimension differences between these three parts?

A: No. All three parts share identical physical dimensions: 0.469" L x 0.209" W (11.90 mm x 5.30 mm), maximum seated height of 0.390" (9.90 mm), and lead spacing of 0.232" (5.90 mm). PCB layout and mounting requirements are identical.

Q: Which part should be selected for RoHS-compliant applications?

A: CD15FD331GO3F is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, making it the appropriate selection for applications requiring European Union environmental regulation compliance. CD15FD331GO3 and CM05FD331GO3 are RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected.

Q: Are all three parts currently in stock?

A: Yes. CD15FD331GO3 has 1128 pieces in stock, CD15FD331GO3F has 762 pieces in stock, and CM05FD331GO3 has 1140 pieces in stock. All are listed as new original inventory.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-frequency applications?

A: Substitution eligibility is determined by the provided electrical and mechanical parameters. All three parts are specified for general-purpose applications with identical capacitance, voltage rating, and temperature range. Application-specific performance validation is outside the scope of parametric equivalence.
