Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility with the VCAS080526C580TP. Selection among these equivalents is based on the following factors:

Compliance and Certification: All parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. The main part and VCAS080526C580DZ and VCAS080526C580RP carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Parts without explicit automotive grade designation (VC080526C580DP, VC080526C580RP, VCAS080526C580DP) maintain identical electrical and thermal performance.

Inventory Availability: VC080526C580DP offers the highest inventory level at 8901 pieces, followed by VCAS080526C580RP at 8660 pieces. VCAS080526C580DP provides the lowest inventory at 1067 pieces.

Packaging Configuration: All parts use Tape & Reel (TR) packaging suitable for automated assembly processes.

Product Status: All substitute parts maintain active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can VC080526C580DP be used as a direct replacement for VCAS080526C580TP?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical parameters: 34.5 V typical varistor voltage, 100 A surge current, 18 V AC / 26 V DC maximum ratings, 0.3 J energy absorption, and 0805 (2012 Metric) surface mount package. The difference in part number prefix does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between VCAS and VC part number prefixes?

A: The part number prefix variation reflects different packaging or distribution channels within KYOCERA AVX's product line. All electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical across both prefix types for the 080526C580 base designation.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: The main part VCAS080526C580TP, VCAS080526C580DZ, and VCAS080526C580RP carry explicit AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Parts VC080526C580DP, VC080526C580RP, and VCAS080526C580DP maintain identical electrical performance and compliance ratings but do not carry explicit automotive grade designation in the provided data. Application requirements should determine the necessity of AEC-Q200 qualification.

Q: Is the 0805 (2012 Metric) package compatible with standard surface mount assembly equipment?

A: Yes. The 0805 (2012 Metric) package is a standard surface mount configuration compatible with conventional pick-and-place and reflow soldering processes. All substitute parts use this identical package specification.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating?

A: MSL 1 (Moisture Sensitivity Level 1) indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture bake-out requirements. All parts maintain this rating, eliminating moisture-related handling constraints during storage and assembly.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical electrical specifications, operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), capacitance (250 pF @ 1 kHz), and single-circuit configuration. Direct substitution is valid without design modification.
