MSASE042SCG910JWNA01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MSASE042SCG910JWNA01 is a 91 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by Taiyo Yuden, rated for 16V with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient characteristics. This surface-mount multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) is packaged in 01005 (0402 Metric) form factor and is designed for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance across temperature ranges from -55°C to 125°C.

The main part is currently in Active product status with 1158 pieces available in inventory. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified for applications where the original part becomes unavailable, discontinued, or where alternative sourcing is required while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MSASE042SCG910JWNA01 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 91 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 16V (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: C0G/NP0 (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C (exact match required)

Mechanical Parameters:

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

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 Compliance (required)
• REACH Unaffected status (required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (required)

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the main part in circuit applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: MSASE042SCG910JWNA01

The MSASE042SCG910JWNA01 is the recommended choice for new designs and ongoing production. This part carries Active product status, indicating full manufacturer support and continued availability. It is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Secondary Selection: EMK042CG910JC-W

The EMK042CG910JC-W is a parametric equivalent manufactured by Taiyo Yuden. While electrically and mechanically identical to the main part, it carries a "Not For New Designs" product status. This part is suitable for legacy system maintenance, repair, and replacement applications where the original part specification must be maintained. Inventory availability is significantly higher at 80716 pieces, making it a viable alternative for high-volume legacy support scenarios.

Tertiary Selection: C0402C0G1C910J

The C0402C0G1C910J is manufactured by TDK Corporation and meets all electrical and mechanical specifications. However, this part is classified as Obsolete. Selection of this part is limited to situations where existing inventory must be utilized or where legacy system compatibility requires TDK-sourced components. Packaging differs from the main part (Cut Tape and Digi-Reel versus Tape & Reel), which may affect procurement and assembly processes.

Selection Criteria Summary:

• For new designs: Use MSASE042SCG910JWNA01
• For legacy system support with high-volume requirements: Use EMK042CG910JC-W
• For existing TDK inventory utilization only: Use C0402C0G1C910J

All three parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable and meet identical compliance standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EMK042CG910JC-W be used as a direct replacement for the MSASE042SCG910JWNA01?

A: Yes. The EMK042CG910JC-W is a parametric equivalent with identical capacitance (91 pF), tolerance (±5%), voltage rating (16V), temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), package type (01005/0402 Metric), and physical dimensions. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The primary difference is product status; EMK042CG910JC-W is marked "Not For New Designs."

Q: What is the difference between the packaging types listed for these parts?

A: The MSASE042SCG910JWNA01 and EMK042CG910JC-W are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The C0402C0G1C910J is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging. These packaging differences affect procurement, storage, and automated assembly processes but do not affect the electrical or mechanical performance of the capacitor itself.

Q: Why is the C0402C0G1C910J marked as Obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates that the manufacturer has discontinued production and support for this part. While existing inventory may be available, no new production is guaranteed. This part should be used only when existing stock must be consumed or when legacy system requirements mandate TDK-sourced components.

Q: Are all three parts suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. All three parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to 125°C with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient, ensuring stable capacitance performance across this full range. C0G/NP0 designation indicates minimal capacitance variation with temperature changes.

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 mean?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 indicates unlimited moisture sensitivity. These parts do not require special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly. No baking or desiccant storage is required prior to soldering.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical physical dimensions (0.016" L x 0.008" W / 0.40mm x 0.20mm), maximum thickness (0.009" / 0.22mm), and 01005 (0402 Metric) package designation. They are pin-compatible and footprint-compatible with existing PCB designs specified for any of these part numbers.

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

A: The MSASE042SCG910JWNA01 should be selected for new product designs. This part carries Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturer support throughout the product lifecycle.
