Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CDV16FF122JO3 is permissible with parts meeting the following critical parameters:

Required Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 1200 pF
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Voltage Rating: 1 kV (minimum)
• Dielectric Material: Mica
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial
• Series: CDV16

Allowable Variations:

• Operating Temperature Range: Higher ranges are acceptable
• Lead Spacing: Minor variations within 0.002" (0.05mm) tolerance
• Physical Dimensions: Within component footprint constraints
• RoHS Status: Compliance improvements are permitted for new designs
• Regulatory Certifications: Enhanced compliance status is acceptable

The substitute identified within the CDV16 series maintains all electrical specifications while offering improved operating temperature range and RoHS compliance options.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part (CDV16FF122JO3): Select when RoHS non-compliant status is acceptable for the application. Suitable for legacy systems and existing designs where regulatory compliance is not a requirement.

Substitute Part (CDV16FF122JO3F): Select for new designs or when regulatory compliance is required. This variant offers ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, eliminating regulatory constraints. The extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C) provides additional thermal margin for demanding applications. Lead spacing variation of 0.002" (0.04mm) is negligible for radial through-hole mounting and poses no compatibility concerns.

Both parts are active, in-stock Cornell Dubilier Electronics CDV16 series components with identical electrical and mechanical footprints for practical circuit board implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are these parts electrically interchangeable? A: Yes. Both parts have identical capacitance (1200 pF), tolerance (±5%), and voltage rating (1 kV). They are electrically equivalent for all circuit applications.

Q: Does the lead spacing difference affect PCB layout? A: No. The 0.002" (0.04mm) difference in lead spacing is within standard radial through-hole component tolerances and does not require PCB redesign.

Q: Can I use CDV16FF122JO3F in place of CDV16FF122JO3? A: Yes. The substitute part meets all critical electrical parameters and is mechanically compatible. The higher operating temperature range and improved compliance status make it a suitable replacement.

Q: What is the difference in temperature rating? A: The primary part operates from -55°C to 125°C. The substitute extends the upper limit to 150°C, providing additional thermal headroom for high-temperature applications.

Q: Is RoHS compliance important for my design? A: RoHS compliance is required for products sold in the European Union and certain other markets. The substitute part (CDV16FF122JO3F) meets ROHS3 compliance, while the primary part does not.

Q: Can both parts be used in the same production batch? A: Both are Cornell Dubilier Electronics CDV16 series capacitors with identical electrical specifications. Use a single part number per PCB revision to maintain consistent traceability and supply chain records.
