CD5EC560JO3F Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD5EC560JO3F is a 56 pF mica capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) in the CD5 series. This through-hole radial component operates at 300 V rated voltage with ±5% tolerance and is designed for general-purpose applications. The part is currently active in production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, compliance requirements, or procurement lead times necessitate alternative sourcing while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CD5EC560JO3F is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 56 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 300 V (exact match required)
• Dielectric Type: Mica (exact match required)
• Mounting Configuration: Through Hole Radial (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.118" / 3.00 mm (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.272" L × 0.150" W / 6.90 mm × 3.80 mm (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)

The identified substitute CD5EC560JO3 shares identical electrical specifications and mechanical form factor with the primary part, enabling direct circuit board substitution. Differences in RoHS compliance status and REACH classification do not affect functional equivalence but must be evaluated against end-product regulatory requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CD5EC560JO3F (Primary Selection)

Select CD5EC560JO3F when ROHS3 compliance is a mandatory requirement for end-product certification or when REACH unaffected status is specified in procurement documentation. This part carries active production status with full regulatory alignment for modern electronics manufacturing standards.

CD5EC560JO3 (Substitute Selection)

The CD5EC560JO3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent and serves as a direct substitute when:

• Inventory availability of CD5EC560JO3F is constrained
• Legacy system designs or retrofit applications do not require ROHS3 compliance
• REACH affected status does not conflict with end-product regulatory scope

Both parts are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics within the CD5 series and maintain identical electrical performance, temperature stability, and physical form factor. Selection between these variants depends solely on compliance framework requirements applicable to the end application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD5EC560JO3 be used as a direct replacement for CD5EC560JO3F on a circuit board?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically identical. They share the same capacitance (56 pF), tolerance (±5%), voltage rating (300 V), dielectric material (mica), lead spacing (3.00 mm), and physical dimensions. Direct substitution on the PCB is feasible from a functional standpoint. Compliance requirements must be evaluated separately.

Q: What is the difference between CD5EC560JO3F and CD5EC560JO3?

A: The parts differ only in regulatory compliance status. CD5EC560JO3F is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. CD5EC560JO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Which part should I specify for a new design?

A: Specify CD5EC560JO3F for new designs unless legacy component sourcing is explicitly required. ROHS3 compliance ensures alignment with current manufacturing standards and regulatory frameworks.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these two parts?

A: No. Both parts deliver identical electrical performance across all operating conditions within the -55°C to 125°C temperature range. Capacitance value, tolerance, voltage rating, and temperature coefficient are equivalent.

Q: Can I mix CD5EC560JO3F and CD5EC560JO3 in the same production batch?

A: Mixing is not recommended for traceability and compliance documentation purposes. Maintain part number consistency within a single production lot to ensure clear regulatory audit trails and supply chain documentation.

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

A: Lead spacing is 0.118 inches (3.00 mm) for both parts. This dimension is critical for PCB footprint design and component placement verification.

Q: Are these parts suitable for high-frequency applications?

A: Mica dielectric capacitors in the CD5 series are designed for general-purpose applications. Frequency response characteristics are not provided in the specification parameters. Consult detailed frequency response data from Cornell Dubilier Electronics for high-frequency circuit requirements.
