Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Critical Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 2.2 pF
• Tolerance: ±0.05pF
• Voltage rating: 25V
• Temperature coefficient: C0G/NP0

Critical Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: 01005 (0402 Metric)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Physical dimensions: 0.016" L x 0.008" W (0.40mm x 0.20mm)
• Maximum thickness: 0.009" (0.22mm)

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

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

Substitute parts identified in this reference maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) and product lifecycle status are noted but do not affect functional compatibility in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 (Primary Part)

The MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 is the recommended selection for new designs. This part carries Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturer support and availability. It is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging, which is standard for automated assembly operations. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating confirm suitability for standard manufacturing and storage conditions.

TMK042CG2R2AD-W (Taiyo Yuden Alternative)

The TMK042CG2R2AD-W is a parametric equivalent from Taiyo Yuden with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. However, this part is designated "Not For New Designs," indicating it is in end-of-life status. This part is supplied in Cut Tape packaging rather than Tape & Reel format. Selection of this part is appropriate only for legacy system maintenance or when existing inventory must be utilized. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are maintained.

CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2 (YAGEO Alternative)

The CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2 is a parametric equivalent manufactured by YAGEO with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part carries Active product status and is supplied in Tape & Reel packaging. The CQ series designation indicates High Q characteristics. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are maintained. This part offers the highest inventory availability at 10712 units.

For new designs, selection between MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 and CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2 is based on manufacturer preference and supply chain strategy. Both parts are Active and suitable for production use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TMK042CG2R2AD-W be used as a direct replacement for MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01?

A: Yes, TMK042CG2R2AD-W is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. However, the packaging format differs: TMK042CG2R2AD-W is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format while MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. This affects handling and automated assembly compatibility. Additionally, TMK042CG2R2AD-W carries "Not For New Designs" status, indicating end-of-life classification.

Q: What is the difference between the Taiyo Yuden and YAGEO options?

A: Both manufacturers provide parametric equivalents with identical capacitance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, and physical dimensions. The primary differences are manufacturer identity and product lifecycle status. MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 and CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2 are both Active products. CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2 includes High Q designation in its feature set.

Q: Are all three parts compatible with the same PCB layout and assembly process?

A: MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 and CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2 are both supplied in Tape & Reel packaging and are compatible with standard automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. TMK042CG2R2AD-W is supplied in Cut Tape format, which requires different handling and may not be compatible with automated reel-fed assembly systems. All three parts share identical 01005 (0402 Metric) package dimensions and surface-mount characteristics.

Q: What does "Not For New Designs" mean for TMK042CG2R2AD-W?

A: "Not For New Designs" indicates that the manufacturer has classified this part as end-of-life or obsolescence-pending. While the part remains functionally equivalent and may still be available in inventory, it is not recommended for incorporation into new product designs. This designation typically reflects manufacturer plans to discontinue production or transition to alternative part numbers.

Q: Are there any compliance or environmental differences between these parts?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating identical environmental and regulatory compliance. Operating temperature ranges are identical at -55°C ~ 125°C. No compliance or environmental differences exist between the parts.

Q: Which part should be selected for a new production design?

A: For new production designs, select either MSART042SCG2R2AWRA01 or CQ0100ARNPO8BN2R2, as both carry Active product status. Selection between these two is based on manufacturer preference, supply chain relationships, and inventory availability. Both parts are suitable for long-term production use.
