Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CD15FD501GO3 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant across alternative parts:

• Capacitance Value: 500 pF (tolerance ±2%)
• Voltage Rating: 500 V (dielectric strength and withstand capability)
• Dielectric Material: Mica (determines electrical characteristics and reliability)
• Package Configuration: Radial, through-hole mounting
• Physical Dimensions: 0.469" L x 0.220" W with maximum seated height of 0.402"
• Lead Spacing: 0.232" (5.90 mm) for PCB compatibility
• Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C operational limits

The CD15FD501GO3F meets all these critical parameters and qualifies as a direct parametric equivalent. Both parts are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics within the CD15 series, ensuring design and electrical integrity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CD15FD501GO3F is the direct substitute for CD15FD501GO3. Both parts are functionally and electrically identical with matched electrical performance across all operating conditions. The primary distinction is regulatory compliance: CD15FD501GO3F achieves ROHS3 compliance and REACH non-affected status, while the original CD15FD501GO3 does not. For new design implementations or manufacturing processes subject to RoHS3 requirements, CD15FD501GO3F is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain Active product status within the Cornell Dubilier CD15 mica capacitor series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are CD15FD501GO3 and CD15FD501GO3F interchangeable? A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with identical capacitance (500 pF), voltage rating (500 V), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), and physical dimensions. Lead spacing and package configuration are identical, permitting direct PCB substitution.

Q: What is the difference between these two parts? A: The CD15FD501GO3F achieves ROHS3 compliance and REACH non-affected status, while CD15FD501GO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: When should I use CD15FD501GO3F instead of CD15FD501GO3? A: Select CD15FD501GO3F for designs requiring RoHS3 compliance or subject to REACH restrictions. For legacy applications without such constraints, either part functions identically.

Q: Will CD15FD501GO3F fit the same PCB layout as CD15FD501GO3? A: Yes. Both parts share identical dimensions (0.469" L x 0.220" W), maximum seated height (0.402"), and lead spacing (0.232" / 5.90 mm). No PCB modifications are required.

Q: Are both parts currently available? A: Yes. CD15FD501GO3 has 737 pieces in stock, and CD15FD501GO3F has 1041 pieces in stock.
