Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MBJCU31LAB7225KTPA01 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 2.2 µF
  • Tolerance: ±10%
  • Voltage rating: 50V
  • Temperature coefficient: X7R

Mechanical Parameters:

  • Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC
  • Physical dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)
  • Maximum thickness: 0.071" (1.80mm)

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
  • RoHS3 compliance
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute parts must match all electrical specifications, maintain identical package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility, and satisfy the same environmental and regulatory requirements. The CL31B225KBHVPJE from Samsung Electro-Mechanics meets all substitution criteria and is qualified as a direct equivalent.
