CD85-E2GA102MYGS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD85-E2GA102MYGS is a 1000 pF ceramic capacitor rated for 250V AC operation, manufactured by TDK Corporation. This component is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited availability. The part is designed for safety-critical applications with X1, Y1 ratings and operates across a temperature range of -25°C to 105°C. Due to its obsolete status, identifying functionally equivalent substitute parts is necessary for ongoing system maintenance, repairs, and new designs requiring this capacitance and voltage specification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The CD45-E2GA102M-GKA qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical capacitance value: 1000 pF
• Identical tolerance: ±20%
• Identical temperature coefficient: E
• Identical mounting type: Through Hole, Radial, Disc configuration
• Identical lead spacing: 0.394" (10.00mm)
• Identical safety ratings: X1, Y1
• Identical applications: Safety-critical circuits

The substitute part exceeds the original specification in voltage rating (400V versus 250V), which provides enhanced margin for safety-critical applications. The substitute maintains compatibility with existing PCB layouts due to matching lead spacing and package geometry. The substitute part is currently in active production status with robust inventory availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CD45-E2GA102M-GKA is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete CD85-E2GA102MYGS. The substitute part maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct replacement. The increased voltage rating of 400V provides additional safety margin in the circuit without introducing incompatibility. The substitute part is manufactured by the same supplier (TDK Corporation) and carries identical safety certifications (X1, Y1 ratings). Active production status ensures long-term availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain REACH compliance and identical tariff classifications, supporting regulatory and procurement continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CD45-E2GA102M-GKA be used as a direct replacement for the CD85-E2GA102MYGS?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (1000 pF), tolerance (±20%), temperature coefficient (E), lead spacing (0.394"), and safety ratings (X1, Y1). The substitute part's higher voltage rating (400V) does not create incompatibility and provides enhanced safety margin.

Q: What is the difference in physical size between these parts?

A: The original part measures 0.335" diameter with 0.492" seated height. The substitute measures 0.276" diameter with 0.433" seated height. Both maintain the same 0.394" lead spacing, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts carry identical REACH compliance status (REACH Unaffected), identical safety ratings (X1, Y1), and identical ECCN/HTSUS classifications. No compliance barriers exist for substitution.

Q: Why is the original part obsolete?

A: The CD85-E2GA102MYGS has been discontinued by TDK Corporation. The CD45-E2GA102M-GKA remains in active production and serves the same functional requirements.

Q: Does the higher voltage rating of the substitute affect circuit performance?

A: No. A capacitor rated for higher voltage operates identically at lower voltages. The 400V rating of the substitute provides additional design margin without altering electrical behavior at 250V operation.
