Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MSAST042SCG3R9CWNA01 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The substitution logic is based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

  • Capacitance value: 3.9 pF
  • Tolerance: ±0.25 pF
  • Voltage rating: 25V
  • Temperature coefficient: C0G/NP0

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

  • Package / Case: 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)
  • Packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR)

Environmental & Compliance Parameters (Must Match):

  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C
  • RoHS3 compliance
  • MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as parametric equivalents and direct substitutes. Manufacturer differences do not affect substitution eligibility when all specified parameters are identical.
