Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TMK063CG3R3CT-F are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. All substitute candidates must satisfy the following criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 3.3 pF
• Tolerance: ±0.25pF
• Voltage Rating: 25V
• Temperature Coefficient: C0G, NP0
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Package / Case: 0201 (0603 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant

Substitution Logic: Parts meeting all mandatory parameters are classified as parametric equivalents. These components are electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the original part. Differences in manufacturer, series designation, or product status do not affect substitution validity when all electrical and mechanical specifications align.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the GMC02CG3R3C25NT be used as a direct replacement for the TMK063CG3R3CT-F?

A: Yes. The GMC02CG3R3C25NT meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the TMK063CG3R3CT-F, including capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, package form factor, and compliance certifications. Direct substitution is valid.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: Both GMC02CG3R3C25NT and QLCD250Q3R3C1GV001T are parametric equivalents with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The QLCD250Q3R3C1GV001T includes documented High Q and Low Loss features with RF/Microwave application designation. Selection depends on application requirements and supply availability.

Q: Why is the original TMK063CG3R3CT-F marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the part is in mature or declining production phase. While currently available in inventory, Taiyo Yuden recommends evaluating alternative solutions for new product development. The substitute parts listed carry Active status, providing assured long-term support.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts GMC02CG3R3C25NT and QLCD250Q3R3C1GV001T are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the original TMK063CG3R3CT-F.

Q: Does package size affect substitution?

A: No. All parts, including the original and substitutes, use the identical 0201 (0603 Metric) package with matching physical dimensions of 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm) and maximum thickness of 0.013" (0.33mm). PCB layout and assembly processes remain unchanged.

Q: What is MSL 1 rating significance?

A: MSL 1 (Moisture Sensitivity Level 1) indicates unlimited shelf life with no special moisture control requirements during storage or handling. All parts in this comparison carry MSL 1 rating, ensuring identical handling procedures.

Q: Can substitutes be used in high-frequency applications?

A: The QLCD250Q3R3C1GV001T is specifically rated for RF, Microwave, and High Frequency applications with High Q and Low Loss characteristics. The GMC02CG3R3C25NT is rated for General Purpose applications. Application suitability depends on circuit requirements and frequency specifications.
