Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the F17103101030 are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must be 10000 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: Must be ±20% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - AC: Must be 300V minimum
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP) or metallized polypropylene acceptable
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C to 105°C
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (radial configuration)
• Physical Dimensions: Lead spacing 0.591" (15.00mm) and overall footprint compatibility
• Certifications: AEC-Q200 and Y2 compliance required for automotive applications

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: BFC233860103 and F17103101000. Both maintain identical capacitance, tolerance, AC voltage rating, temperature range, and physical dimensions. BFC233860103 offers enhanced DC voltage rating (1000V) with metallized dielectric construction, while F17103101000 provides an exact electrical and mechanical match within the same series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts maintain full compliance with automotive quality standards through AEC-Q200 and Y2 certifications, and both are ROHS3 compliant. Selection between F17103101000 and BFC233860103 depends on application-specific requirements:

F17103101000 is functionally identical to the main part F17103101030 within the same F1710 series. This part provides direct substitution with no electrical or mechanical deviations.

BFC233860103 from the MKP338 series offers enhanced DC voltage rating (1000V) with metallized polypropylene dielectric construction. This part is suitable for applications requiring higher DC voltage withstand capability while maintaining the same AC voltage rating and physical footprint. The metallized construction may provide different performance characteristics in specific circuit topologies.

All three parts are manufactured by the same supplier and maintain identical physical dimensions, lead spacing, and thermal operating range, ensuring PCB-level compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BFC233860103 be used as a direct replacement for F17103101030?
