K820J15C0GF53L2 Ceramic Capacitor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The K820J15C0GF53L2 is an 82 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components in the Mono-Kap™ K series. This radial through-hole component operates at 50V with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient and maintains stable performance across -55°C to 125°C. The part is currently active in production. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility within the radial through-hole package category.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the K820J15C0GF53L2 is determined by the following criteria:

Electrical parameters must match exactly: 82 pF capacitance, ±5% tolerance, 50V voltage rating, and C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient with -55°C to 125°C operating range.

Mechanical compatibility requires through-hole radial mounting with lead spacing of 0.098" (2.50mm) to ensure direct board-level compatibility.

Compliance requirements include ROHS3 certification and REACH unaffected status.

Three substitute parts meet these criteria: FK18C0G1H820JN020 and FK28C0G1H820JN000 from TDK Corporation, and RDE5C1H820J0P1H03B from Murata Electronics. All three maintain identical electrical specifications and radial through-hole configuration.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For new designs, K820J15C0GF53L2 (Vishay) and RDE5C1H820J0P1H03B (Murata) are both active products with full production support and are preferred selections.

FK18C0G1H820JN020 and FK28C0G1H820JN000 from TDK are marked "Not For New Designs" and should be used only for legacy system maintenance or replacement applications where existing inventory must be maintained.

All four parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Lead spacing differences exist between parts: FK28C0G1H820JN000 features 0.197" (5.00mm) lead spacing, while the other three maintain 0.098" (2.50mm) spacing. Board layout compatibility must be verified before selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FK28C0G1H820JN000 be used as a direct replacement for K820J15C0GF53L2?

A: FK28C0G1H820JN000 matches all electrical specifications but has different lead spacing (0.197" versus 0.098"). Direct board-level substitution is not possible without PCB modification. This part is also marked "Not For New Designs."

Q: What is the difference between C0G and NP0 temperature coefficients?

A: C0G and NP0 designations refer to the same temperature coefficient characteristic. Both terms describe capacitors with negligible capacitance change across the operating temperature range. They are equivalent specifications from different manufacturers.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. K820J15C0GF53L2, FK18C0G1H820JN020, FK28C0G1H820JN000, and RDE5C1H820J0P1H03B all carry ROHS3 compliance certification.

Q: Which substitute part has the best availability for new designs?

A: RDE5C1H820J0P1H03B from Murata Electronics is an active product with current production status and maintains identical lead spacing (0.098") to the original K820J15C0GF53L2, making it the preferred substitute for new design implementations.

Q: Can these capacitors be used interchangeably in legacy equipment?

A: Electrical interchangeability is confirmed across all four parts. Physical interchangeability depends on PCB layout and lead spacing. FK18C0G1H820JN020 and RDE5C1H820J0P1H03B maintain the same 0.098" lead spacing as the original and can be used as direct replacements. FK28C0G1H820JN000 requires PCB modification due to its 0.197" lead spacing.
