SR201A152KAT Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The SR201A152KAT is a 1500 pF ceramic capacitor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX from the SkyCap® SR series. This through-hole radial component operates at 100V with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient and ±10% capacitance tolerance. The part is ROHS3 compliant and actively produced. Substitute parts are identified when electrical specifications, mechanical form factor, and compliance certifications remain equivalent or improved within the allowed parameter ranges for ceramic capacitor applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the SR201A152KAT is determined by the following criteria:

• Capacitance Value: Must be 1500 pF (no deviation permitted)
• Voltage Rating: Must be 100V or higher
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be C0G or NP0 (equivalent specifications)
• Mounting Type: Must be through-hole radial configuration
• Lead Spacing: Must be 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance

The substitute part SR201A152JAR meets all these criteria. The tolerance improvement from ±10% to ±5% represents an upgrade in precision without affecting functional compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both SR201A152KAT and SR201A152JAR are active production parts from KYOCERA AVX with full ROHS3 compliance. The SR201A152JAR provides improved capacitance tolerance (±5% versus ±10%), which may be beneficial in precision-critical applications while maintaining identical electrical ratings, temperature performance, and mechanical compatibility. Selection between these parts depends on tolerance requirements for the specific application. Both parts are suitable for general-purpose ceramic capacitor applications requiring stable C0G/NP0 performance across the -55°C to 125°C operating range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SR201A152JAR replace SR201A152KAT in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (1500 pF), voltage rating (100V), temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0), physical dimensions, and lead spacing. The SR201A152JAR offers tighter tolerance (±5% vs ±10%), making it a direct substitute with improved precision.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility concerns?

A: No. Both parts are radial through-hole components with identical dimensions (0.200" L x 0.125" W) and lead spacing (0.100"). PCB footprints and mounting procedures are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the tolerance difference?

A: The SR201A152JAR tolerance of ±5% provides tighter capacitance accuracy compared to the SR201A152KAT at ±10%. This is relevant for applications requiring precise capacitance values; however, both tolerances are within the C0G/NP0 standard performance envelope.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both SR201A152KAT and SR201A152JAR are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications requiring RoHS certification.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these parts?

A: Both parts operate across -55°C to 125°C with C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient, ensuring stable capacitance performance across this full range.
