Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the GCM1885C1H9R9DA16D is determined by the following critical parameters: capacitance value (9.9 pF), voltage rating (50V), temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected).

Two substitute parts meet these core electrical requirements:

GCM1555C1H9R9DA16D (Murata Electronics): Maintains identical electrical specifications with matching capacitance, tolerance, voltage, and temperature coefficient. The primary difference is package size reduction from 0603 to 0402 (1005 Metric), resulting in smaller physical dimensions. This part carries Active product status and is suitable for new designs.

CBR06C999B5GAC (KEMET): Maintains the 0603 package format and electrical specifications with tighter tolerance (±0.1pF versus ±0.5pF). Designed for RF and microwave applications with specified high Q and low ESR characteristics. Product status is Active.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

GCM1555C1H9R9DA16D is recommended for applications where PCB space constraints permit package downsizing from 0603 to 0402. This part maintains full electrical equivalence with Active product status and identical compliance certifications. Layout and assembly process modifications are required to accommodate the smaller package footprint.

CBR06C999B5GAC is recommended for applications requiring package compatibility with the original 0603 format while benefiting from tighter capacitance tolerance (±0.1pF). This part is specified for RF and microwave applications and carries Active product status with full compliance certifications. The tighter tolerance may provide improved circuit performance in precision applications.

Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can GCM1555C1H9R9DA16D be used as a direct replacement without PCB redesign?

A: No. The GCM1555C1H9R9DA16D uses 0402 (1005 Metric) package versus the original 0603 (1608 Metric) package. PCB footprint modification and assembly process adjustment are required. Electrical specifications are identical.

Q: What is the primary advantage of CBR06C999B5GAC over the original part?

A: CBR06C999B5GAC maintains the 0603 package format for direct PCB compatibility and offers tighter capacitance tolerance (±0.1pF versus ±0.5pF). It is specified for RF and microwave applications with low ESR characteristics.

Q: Are all substitute parts automotive-qualified?

A: The original GCM1885C1H9R9DA16D carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. GCM1555C1H9R9DA16D maintains this qualification. CBR06C999B5GAC does not list AEC-Q200 rating in the provided specifications.

Q: Do the substitute parts have identical moisture sensitivity levels?

A: Yes. All three parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: GCM1555C1H9R9DA16D requires PCB redesign due to package size change. CBR06C999B5GAC maintains package compatibility but may require assembly process evaluation due to different manufacturer specifications.
