Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the CDV16FF202JO3 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the CDV16 series from Cornell Dubilier Electronics. The substitution logic is based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Non-negotiable):

• Capacitance value: 2000 pF
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Voltage rating: 1 kV minimum
• Dielectric material: Mica

Mechanical Parameters (Non-negotiable):

• Mounting configuration: Through Hole Radial
• Package case: Radial
• Physical dimensions: 0.469" L x 0.252" W (11.90mm x 6.40mm)
• Height seated maximum: 0.520" (13.20mm)

Performance Characteristics:

• RF capability, High Q factor, Low Loss characteristics

Acceptable Variations:

• Lead spacing tolerance: 0.232" to 0.234" (5.90mm to 5.94mm) - minor manufacturing variation within industry standards
• RoHS compliance status: May differ between original and substitute
• REACH compliance status: May differ between original and substitute

Parts meeting all electrical and mechanical criteria are classified as direct substitutes regardless of compliance certification differences.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

CDV16FF202JO3F as Direct Substitute:

The CDV16FF202JO3F qualifies as a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the CDV16FF202JO3. All critical parameters—capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, dielectric material, mounting configuration, and physical dimensions—are identical between the two parts.

The lead spacing difference of 0.002" (0.04mm) between the main part (0.234") and substitute (0.232") falls within standard manufacturing tolerances for radial through-hole components and does not affect PCB footprint compatibility.

Compliance Considerations:

The CDV16FF202JO3F offers enhanced compliance status compared to the main part:

• ROHS3 Compliant (versus RoHS non-compliant for CDV16FF202JO3)
• REACH Unaffected (versus REACH Affected for CDV16FF202JO3)

Applications subject to RoHS3 or REACH regulations should prioritize the CDV16FF202JO3F. Applications without such regulatory requirements may use either part interchangeably based on availability and inventory management.

Product Status:

Both parts maintain Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturer support and availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CDV16FF202JO3F be used as a direct replacement for CDV16FF202JO3 in RF circuits?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in capacitance (2000 pF), tolerance (±5%), voltage rating (1 kV), dielectric material (mica), and RF performance characteristics (High Q, Low Loss). The lead spacing difference of 0.002" is within standard manufacturing tolerance and does not affect circuit performance or PCB compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the lead spacing difference (0.234" vs 0.232")?

A: The 0.002" (0.04mm) difference represents normal manufacturing variation within industry standards for radial through-hole capacitors. Both measurements fall within the acceptable tolerance range for the CDV16 series and will fit standard PCB footprints designed for this component family without modification.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The CDV16FF202JO3F is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, while the CDV16FF202JO3 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. For applications requiring RoHS3 or REACH compliance, the CDV16FF202JO3F is the appropriate selection. For applications without such requirements, both parts are functionally equivalent.

Q: Do both parts have the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both CDV16FF202JO3 and CDV16FF202JO3F operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, ensuring equivalent thermal performance in all environmental conditions.

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

A: Both parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, which indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements. No special storage or handling precautions are necessary.

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

A: Yes. Both parts are specified with RF capability, High Q factor, and Low Loss characteristics, making them suitable for RF circuits, precision filtering, and high-frequency applications where low dielectric loss is required.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: CDV16FF202JO3 has 1105 pieces in stock. CDV16FF202JO3F has 1147 pieces in stock. Both are available as new original components in bulk packaging.
