DPP6S1K-F Film Capacitor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DPP6S1K-F is a 10000 pF film capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) in the DPP series. This radial polypropylene metallized film capacitor operates at 630V DC with ±10% tolerance and is designed for high-frequency and switching applications. The part maintains Active product status with 1108 units in current inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility allow direct replacement in circuit designs while maintaining performance requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DPP6S1K-F is determined by the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Non-Negotiable):

• Capacitance value: 10000 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% or tighter
• DC voltage rating: 630V minimum
• Dielectric material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized

Mechanical Parameters (Required for PCB Compatibility):

• Mounting type: Through Hole Radial
• Termination: PC Pins
• Package case: Radial configuration

Environmental & Compliance:

• Operating temperature range must encompass or exceed -55°C ~ 105°C
• RoHS3 compliance required
• REACH Unaffected status maintained

The QXT2J103KRPT from Nichicon meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. Physical dimensions differ (smaller footprint), but lead spacing and termination type remain compatible with standard through-hole PCB layouts designed for radial film capacitors in this voltage and capacitance class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection - DPP6S1K-F (CDE): Select the original DPP6S1K-F when the PCB layout specifies 20.00mm lead spacing and the full operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 105°C is required. This part is Active with established inventory (1108 units) and maintains all specified compliance certifications.

Substitute Selection - QXT2J103KRPT (Nichicon): The QXT2J103KRPT qualifies as a direct electrical substitute with identical capacitance, tolerance, and 630V DC rating. This part is suitable when:

• PCB hole pattern accommodates 15.00mm lead spacing
• Operating temperature minimum requirement does not fall below -40°C
• Smaller physical footprint (19.00mm x 6.80mm) is acceptable or beneficial for space-constrained layouts
• Active product status and ROHS3 compliance are maintained

Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. Lead spacing and physical dimensions represent the primary design considerations for PCB compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can QXT2J103KRPT replace DPP6S1K-F in any application?

A: Electrical substitution is valid for capacitance, tolerance, and voltage specifications. Physical compatibility depends on PCB hole spacing. The DPP6S1K-F uses 20.00mm lead spacing while QXT2J103KRPT uses 15.00mm spacing. Verify your PCB design accommodates the substitute's lead spacing before implementation.

Q: What is the impact of the different operating temperature ranges?

A: The DPP6S1K-F operates from -55°C to 105°C, while QXT2J103KRPT operates from -40°C to 105°C. If your application requires operation below -40°C, the original DPP6S1K-F is required. For applications within -40°C to 105°C, both parts are equivalent.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Yes. DPP6S1K-F has 1108 units in inventory. QXT2J103KRPT has 1269 units in inventory. Both maintain Active product status.

Q: Does the smaller physical size of QXT2J103KRPT affect performance?

A: Physical size does not affect electrical performance for this capacitor type. Both parts use identical polypropylene metallized dielectric material and achieve the same capacitance and voltage specifications. Smaller size may provide layout advantages in space-constrained designs.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both DPP6S1K-F and QXT2J103KRPT are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the primary reason to choose one part over the other?

A: Choose based on PCB design constraints. If your PCB is designed for 20.00mm lead spacing, use DPP6S1K-F. If your PCB accommodates 15.00mm lead spacing and does not require operation below -40°C, QXT2J103KRPT provides equivalent electrical performance with a smaller footprint.
