Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HT05CB102KN is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 1000 pF
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Voltage rating: 100V
• Temperature coefficient: X7R

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package configuration: Radial
• Lead spacing: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Lead style: Straight

The substitute part C315C102K1R5TA satisfies all electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution. Both components share identical capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, mounting configuration, and lead spacing. Physical dimensions differ slightly, with the substitute featuring a more compact footprint, which remains compatible with standard through-hole PCB layouts designed for radial capacitors with 0.100" lead spacing.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The C315C102K1R5TA serves as a direct electrical and mechanical substitute for the obsolete HT05CB102KN. Both components are manufactured by KEMET and share identical electrical specifications across capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, and temperature coefficient.

Product Status Consideration: The HT05CB102KN is classified as obsolete with limited inventory (751 pieces). The C315C102K1R5TA maintains active product status with significantly higher availability (28,525 pieces), ensuring long-term supply chain reliability.

Compliance Status: The C315C102K1R5TA is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing enhanced regulatory compliance compared to the original part.

Operating Temperature Differential: The original part operates across -55°C to 200°C, while the substitute operates across -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring sustained operation above 125°C require evaluation against specific thermal requirements.

Physical Dimensions: The substitute features a more compact footprint (0.150" L x 0.100" W versus 0.200" L x 0.100" W), reducing PCB space requirements while maintaining full mechanical compatibility through identical lead spacing and straight lead configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can C315C102K1R5TA replace HT05CB102KN in all applications?

A: The C315C102K1R5TA provides electrical and mechanical equivalence for applications operating within -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring sustained operation above 125°C must be evaluated against specific thermal design requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible with existing PCB layouts?

A: Yes. Both components feature identical lead spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm) and straight lead configuration. The substitute's more compact length (0.150" versus 0.200") provides improved PCB space efficiency without affecting through-hole mounting compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature range difference?

A: The original HT05CB102KN supports operation to 200°C, while C315C102K1R5TA supports operation to 125°C. This difference is relevant only for applications with sustained high-temperature requirements above 125°C. Standard general-purpose applications typically operate well within the 125°C limit.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The C315C102K1R5TA is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, providing enhanced regulatory compliance. The original part's compliance status is not specified in available documentation.

Q: Does the substitute part belong to a different product series?

A: Yes. The HT05CB102KN belongs to the HTHP LDD Industrial X7R HT200C series, while C315C102K1R5TA belongs to the GoldMax 300 Commercial X7R series. Both series are manufactured by KEMET and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for this capacitance value.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: HT05CB102KN has 751 pieces in stock (obsolete status). C315C102K1R5TA has 28,525 pieces in stock (active status), providing superior long-term availability.
