Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference: VCAS120645K900RP

Part Overview

KYOCERA AVX model VCAS120645K900RP is a TransGuard® series multilayer ceramic varistor designed for transient voltage suppression applications. This component provides a 56 V typical varistor voltage, supports up to 200 A surge current, and is mounted in a 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount package. The product status is Active with ROHS3 and REACH compliance. Sourcing alternative models is necessary to address inventory continuity, multi-source strategy, and specification/certification matching within the Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for VCAS120645K900RP are selected strictly based on matching the following key parameters: varistor voltage range (minimum, typical, maximum), maximum AC and DC voltages, surge current capability, energy rating, circuit number, capacitance at frequency, operating temperature range, mounting type, package/case size, regulatory compliance (RoHS, REACH), and product status. All substitutes provided belong to the same electrical category, share identical mechanical characteristics, and meet the compliance and qualification conditions specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts (VCAS120645K900DP, VCAS120645K900DZ) hold an Active product status and full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH regulations. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) and packaging type are identical. Substitute selection can be based directly on documented parametric equivalence and matched certifications from the provided data set.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What criteria determine a valid substitute for VCAS120645K900RP?
A: Valid substitutes must match varistor voltage range, maximum AC/DC voltages, surge current rating, energy, circuit count, capacitance at frequency, operating temperature, mounting type, package size, and regulatory compliance.

Q2: Do the substitute parts differ in packaging or form factor?
A: All substitutes use 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount packages and are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format.

Q3: Are compliance and environmental certifications equivalent across these models?
A: Each listed part is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and maintains MSL 1 (Unlimited).

Q4: What is the impact of series designation or automotive grade on substitution?
A: Substitution is validated solely on parametric equivalence, regardless of series or automotive grade, if all listed technical and compliance parameters are matched.

Q5: Is there any difference in surge current or energy capability among these parts?
A: All substitutes maintain identical surge current (200 A) and energy (0.6J) ratings as defined in the key substitution parameters.

Q6: What is the appropriate process for choosing between these substitutes?
A: Selection can proceed based strictly on inventory status and documented equivalence of parameters provided, with all compliance certifications met.

Q7: Do mounting or assembly practices change between VCAS120645K900RP and its substitutes?
A: No changes in mounting or assembly practices are necessary due to identical mechanical specifications and package format.
