CDR32BX103BKSS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CDR32BX103BKSS is a military-grade ceramic capacitor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, rated at 10000 pF with 100V voltage rating and BX temperature coefficient. This component is part of the MIL-PRF-55681 certified CDR32 series and is designed for high-reliability applications requiring stable performance across -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range. The part is currently active in production with 1095 units in stock. Substitute parts are necessary to address supply chain flexibility, alternative packaging formats, and sourcing from qualified military-grade manufacturers.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the CDR32BX103BKSS is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: capacitance value (10000 pF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (100V), temperature coefficient (BX), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), package type (1206/3216 Metric), mounting method (Surface Mount MLCC), military series compliance (MIL-PRF-55681, CDR32), and failure rate classification (S, 0.001%). All substitute parts listed maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and manufacturer source represent the primary variables among qualified substitutes. All substitute parts retain active product status and military-grade certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the CDR32BX103BKSS. Selection among substitutes is based on packaging format requirements and manufacturer availability. CDR32BX103BKUS (KYOCERA AVX, Tape & Reel) provides direct substitution with highest inventory availability at 2781 units. CDR32BX103BKUS7370 (KEMET, Tape & Reel) offers the largest inventory reserve at 8498 units for high-volume applications. CDR32BX103BKUS7185 (KEMET, Cut Tape) is suitable for applications requiring individual component handling or lower-volume procurement. CDR32BX103BKWSAJ (Vishay Vitramon, Tape & Reel) provides alternative manufacturer sourcing with 1520 units available. All parts comply with MIL-PRF-55681 military specifications, maintain identical failure rate classification, and are RoHS non-compliant with REACH affected status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CDR32BX103BKUS replace CDR32BX103BKSS in production assemblies? A: Yes. CDR32BX103BKUS is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications (10000 pF, ±10%, 100V, BX coefficient, -55°C to 125°C), package type (1206/3216 Metric), and military certification (MIL-PRF-55681). The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel for both), making it a direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging? A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging provides components on continuous carrier tape suitable for automated assembly equipment. Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides individual components or small quantities cut from the carrier tape, typically for manual assembly or low-volume applications. Electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Are KEMET and Vishay Vitramon parts equivalent to KYOCERA AVX? A: Yes. CDR32BX103BKUS7185, CDR32BX103BKUS7370 (KEMET), and CDR32BX103BKWSAJ (Vishay Vitramon) are parametric equivalents certified to MIL-PRF-55681 with identical capacitance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, package dimensions, and failure rate classification.

Q: Which substitute part has the best inventory availability? A: CDR32BX103BKUS7370 (KEMET, Tape & Reel) has the highest inventory at 8498 units, followed by CDR32BX103BKUS (KYOCERA AVX) at 2781 units.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity level? A: Yes. All listed parts, including the main part CDR32BX103BKSS, have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and substitutes? A: All parts share identical ECCN (EAR99), HTSUS code (8532.24.0020), RoHS status (non-compliant), and REACH status (affected). No compliance differences exist among the listed parts.
