Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the R46KI3680JMP0K are determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Capacitance Value: 0.68 µF (exact match required)

Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)

Voltage Ratings: 560V DC / 275V AC (exact match required)

Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (exact match required)

Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 110°C (exact match required)

Mounting Configuration: Through Hole Radial (exact match required)

Safety Rating: X2 (exact match required)

Compliance Standards: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The identified substitute parts R46KI368000P0K and R46KI368040P0K are parametrically equivalent to the main part number across all electrical and mechanical specifications. These parts differ only in packaging format (Bulk packaging versus the original specification) and inventory availability, making them suitable alternatives for applications requiring identical electrical performance and safety characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three part numbers—R46KI3680JMP0K, R46KI368000P0K, and R46KI368040P0K—are active products manufactured by KEMET with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on the following factors:

Product Availability: R46KI368000P0K has the highest inventory level (17,749 pcs), followed by R46KI368040P0K (1,027 pcs), and R46KI3680JMP0K (807 pcs).

Packaging Format: R46KI368000P0K and R46KI368040P0K are supplied in Bulk packaging, while R46KI3680JMP0K follows a different packaging specification. Bulk packaging is suitable for high-volume manufacturing and assembly operations.

Compliance Certification: All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.

Export Classification: All parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8532.25.0010, indicating standard commercial classification with no export restrictions.

For applications requiring immediate availability and bulk procurement, R46KI368000P0K is the preferred selection. For applications with specific packaging requirements, verify packaging compatibility with assembly equipment and procurement specifications before final selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can R46KI368000P0K and R46KI368040P0K be used interchangeably with R46KI3680JMP0K in the same circuit?

A: Yes. All three part numbers are parametrically equivalent across capacitance (0.68 µF), tolerance (±10%), voltage ratings (560V DC / 275V AC), dielectric material (Polypropylene metallized), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 110°C), and safety rating (X2). They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for EMI/RFI suppression applications.

Q: What is the difference between these part numbers?

A: The primary difference is packaging format and inventory availability. R46KI368000P0K and R46KI368040P0K are supplied in Bulk packaging, while R46KI3680JMP0K uses a different packaging specification. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are these parts suitable for X2 safety-rated applications?

A: Yes. All three parts carry the X2 safety rating, which designates them for use in EMI suppression applications across AC mains circuits. This rating is consistent across all substitute options.

Q: Do these capacitors meet current environmental compliance standards?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental regulations for electronic component manufacturing and use in the European Union and other regulated markets.

Q: What is the physical footprint compatibility between these parts?

A: All three parts share identical physical dimensions: 0.709" L x 0.433" W (18.00mm x 11.00mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.752" (19.10mm) and lead spacing of 0.591" (15.00mm). They are mechanically compatible with the same PCB layouts and through-hole mounting configurations.

Q: Which part number should be selected for high-volume production?

A: R46KI368000P0K is recommended for high-volume production due to its significantly higher inventory level (17,749 pcs) and Bulk packaging format, which aligns with standard manufacturing procurement practices.
