Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is strictly determined by matching the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Capacitance: 220 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Voltage - Rated: 100V (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: C0G, NP0 (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0603 (1608 Metric) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC (exact match required)
• Ratings: AEC-Q200 (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

All substitute parts listed meet these criteria and are functionally interchangeable with the main part in the specified application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: KAM15ACG2A221JT (KYOCERA AVX) - This part is a parametric equivalent manufactured by the same supplier as the main part, offers the highest inventory availability at 12,373 pieces, maintains active product status, and provides the same electrical and mechanical specifications with identical packaging attributes.

Secondary Selection: AC0603JRNPO0BN221 (YAGEO) - This direct manufacturer equivalent offers the largest inventory stock at 25,898 pieces, maintains active product status, and meets all electrical and mechanical specifications. Dimensional variation of 0.01mm in width is within standard manufacturing tolerances for this package class.

Alternative Selection: CGA3E2C0G2A221J080AA (TDK Corporation) - This direct manufacturer equivalent maintains active product status and full parameter compliance with a 2,775 piece inventory. Dimensional variation of 0.01mm in width is within standard manufacturing tolerances for this package class.

Not Recommended for New Designs: CGJ3E2C0G2A221J080AA (TDK Corporation) - Although this part meets all electrical and mechanical specifications, its obsolete product status indicates end-of-life designation and declining availability, making it unsuitable for new production allocations or long-term supply chain planning.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can KAM15ACG2A221JT be used as a direct replacement for KAM15ACG2A221JM? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (220 pF ±5% 100V C0G/NP0), mechanical dimensions (0603/1608 Metric), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), AEC-Q200 automotive rating, and ROHS3 compliance. The only difference is the packaging format (Tape & Reel for both). These parts are functionally interchangeable in all circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between C0G and NP0 designations? A: C0G and NP0 designations are equivalent specifications from different manufacturer naming conventions representing the same temperature coefficient classification. All parts listed utilize this stable temperature coefficient suitable for precision analog and RF applications.

Q: Are YAGEO and TDK substitutes electrically equivalent to KYOCERA AVX? A: Yes. The AC0603JRNPO0BN221 (YAGEO) and CGA3E2C0G2A221J080AA (TDK Corporation) share identical electrical specifications (capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range) and mechanical package (0603/1608 Metric). All carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. They are fully equivalent substitutes meeting the same performance criteria.

Q: Why should CGJ3E2C0G2A221J080AA be avoided despite meeting all specifications? A: The CGJ3E2C0G2A221J080AA is designated as obsolete product status, indicating discontinued manufacturing and declining inventory availability. For new designs and production applications, obsolete parts create supply chain risk and potential long-term sourcing constraints.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitutes? A: All listed substitutes utilize the same 0603 (1608 Metric) surface mount package. KAM15ACG2A221JT and KAM15ACG2A221JM are both supplied in Tape & Reel format. CGJ3E2C0G2A221J080AA uses Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® packaging. These format variations do not affect circuit performance and primarily influence procurement and assembly logistics.

Q: Do all parts meet automotive and compliance requirements? A: Yes. All substitute parts listed carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected designation, and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). These ratings ensure full compatibility in automotive and industrial applications meeting the same environmental and regulatory standards as the main part.
