CD5EC270JO3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD5EC270JO3 is a 27 pF mica capacitor rated for 300 V operation in a radial through-hole configuration, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). This component is classified as active and serves general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance and high voltage tolerance. Mica dielectric capacitors are selected for applications demanding low loss, excellent frequency stability, and reliable performance across extended temperature ranges from -55°C to 125°C.

Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to ensure design flexibility, manage supply chain continuity, and accommodate varying compliance requirements across different manufacturing and regulatory environments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CD5EC270JO3 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 27 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 300 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: 0.118" / 3.00 mm (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as parametric equivalents and are electrically and mechanically interchangeable. Variations in RoHS compliance status, REACH classification, or inventory levels do not affect functional substitution capability.
