Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ERK610Z331MTC0 is based on the following criteria derived from the provided parameters:

Primary Substitution Basis:

• Ceramic capacitor category classification
• Manufacturer continuity (KEMET)
• Regulatory compliance alignment (REACH Unaffected, EAR99 classification, HTSUS 8532.23.0060)
• Through-hole mounting compatibility
• Radial, disc package configuration

The substitute part C717U331KZYDCAWL50 satisfies these criteria as an active-status ceramic capacitor from the same manufacturer with identical regulatory designations and compatible physical form factor.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C717U311KZYDCAWL50 is designated as the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete ERK610Z331MTC0. Selection of this active-status component is supported by:

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain identical REACH and export control classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99), ensuring no change in compliance documentation or supply chain requirements.

Manufacturer Continuity: KEMET's recommendation of this substitute ensures engineering validation and ongoing technical support availability.

Product Status: The substitute part maintains active production status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete original part.

Physical Compatibility: Identical mounting type (through-hole) and package configuration (radial, disc) support direct board-level substitution without PCB redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the C717U331KZYDCAWL50 be used as a direct replacement for ERK610Z331MTC0?

A: Yes. Both parts are through-hole mounted ceramic capacitors in radial disc configuration from KEMET, with identical regulatory classifications. The substitute is manufacturer-recommended for this obsolete part.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The ERK610Z331MTC0 is classified as obsolete and no longer in active production. The C717U331KZYDCAWL50 is an active-status alternative that maintains electrical category, mounting type, and regulatory compliance.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification changes?

A: No. Both parts share identical REACH status (REACH Unaffected), ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8532.23.0060).

Q: What are the physical form factor specifications of the substitute?

A: The C717U331KZYDCAWL50 features a 0.315" diameter (8.00mm) disc with 0.197" maximum seated height (5.00mm) and 0.295" lead spacing (7.50mm), configured with formed kinked leads for through-hole mounting.

Q: What electrical specifications are provided for the substitute part?

A: The substitute is rated at 330 pF capacitance with ±10% tolerance, 440VAC rated voltage, Y5P (B) temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.
