CD5FA151JO3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD5FA151JO3 is a 150 pF mica capacitor rated for 100 V operation in a radial through-hole package, manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE). This component is classified as a general-purpose capacitor suitable for applications requiring stable capacitance and low moisture sensitivity. The part is currently active in production with 1069 units in stock.

Identification of substitute parts becomes necessary when the primary part number is unavailable, when supply chain constraints limit access to specific manufacturing variants, or when design requirements permit selection from equivalent alternatives that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the CD5FA151JO3 are identified based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitution logic requires that alternative parts maintain:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 150 pF
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Rated voltage: 100 V
• Dielectric material: Mica

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package configuration: Radial
• Lead spacing: 0.118" (3.00mm)
• Physical dimensions: 0.272" L x 0.169" W (6.90mm x 4.30mm)
• Maximum seated height: 0.228" (5.80mm)

Environmental Parameters:

• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as parametric equivalents and may be selected interchangeably for direct replacement in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CD5FA151JO3F serves as a parametric equivalent to the CD5FA151JO3, with all electrical and mechanical specifications matching exactly. Both parts are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics within the CD5 series and maintain identical performance characteristics across capacitance, voltage rating, temperature range, and physical dimensions.

The primary distinction between these parts lies in regulatory compliance status. The CD5FA151JO3F is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, whereas the CD5FA151JO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH affected. Selection between these parts should be determined by the regulatory requirements of the target application and end-use market.

Both parts are active in production status. The CD5FA151JO3F currently maintains higher inventory availability at 1541 units compared to 1069 units for the CD5FA151JO3.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CD5FA151JO3F be used as a direct replacement for the CD5FA151JO3?

A: Yes. The CD5FA151JO3F is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Direct substitution is permissible from a functional standpoint. Regulatory compliance requirements should be evaluated for the specific application.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The CD5FA151JO3F incorporates ROHS3 compliance and is REACH unaffected, while the CD5FA151JO3 does not meet these regulatory standards. Both are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics in the CD5 series.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between CD5FA151JO3 and CD5FA151JO3F?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical dimensions of 0.272" L x 0.169" W (6.90mm x 4.30mm), maximum seated height of 0.228" (5.80mm), and lead spacing of 0.118" (3.00mm). They are interchangeable in PCB layouts.

Q: What does the "F" suffix in CD5FA151JO3F indicate?

A: The "F" suffix denotes ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. This variant meets current environmental and regulatory requirements for restricted substance use.

Q: Can these parts be used in applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: The CD5FA151JO3F is ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications with RoHS requirements. The CD5FA151JO3 is RoHS non-compliant and should not be used in applications requiring RoHS certification.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C?

A: Yes. Both the CD5FA151JO3 and CD5FA151JO3F are rated for continuous operation across the -55°C to 125°C temperature range.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these capacitors?

A: Both parts have a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements.
