Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitute parts for the PCF1E6R8MCL1GS are identified based on strict parametric equivalence across the following criteria:
- Capacitance value: 6.8 µF (exact match required)
- Voltage rating: 25 V (exact match required)
- Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
- ESR: 80 mOhm (exact match required)
- Lifetime specification: 2000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
- Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
- Package type: Radial, Can - SMD (exact match required)
- Physical dimensions: 0.248" Dia (6.30 mm), Height 0.236" (6.00 mm) (exact match required)
- Surface mount land size: 0.260" L x 0.260" W (6.60 mm x 6.60 mm) (exact match required)
- Mounting type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
The Panasonic 25SVP6R8M meets all these criteria and is classified as a parametric equivalent.
