Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the VJ1206Y472KXCMP is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 4700 pF
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Voltage rating: 200V minimum
• Temperature coefficient: X7R
• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 or better

The KEMET part C1206C472K2RAC7800 meets all substitution criteria. Both components share identical electrical specifications and mechanical footprint compatibility, enabling direct substitution in circuit designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the VJ1206Y472KXCMP and C1206C472K2RAC7800 are Active status components with full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. Selection between these parts is based on application-specific requirements:

The Vishay Vitramon VJ1206Y472KXCMP supports an extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, making it suitable for applications requiring higher temperature performance.

The KEMET C1206C472K2RAC7800 features a reduced maximum thickness of 0.035" (0.88mm) compared to 0.067" (1.70mm), providing advantages in space-constrained PCB designs where component height is a limiting factor.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical footprint compatibility, ensuring direct substitution capability in standard 1206 surface mount applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can C1206C472K2RAC7800 be used as a direct replacement for VJ1206Y472KXCMP?

A: Yes. Both components share identical capacitance (4700 pF), tolerance (±10%), voltage rating (200V), temperature coefficient (X7R), and 1206 package format. They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The operating temperature range differs: VJ1206Y472KXCMP operates from -55°C to 150°C, while C1206C472K2RAC7800 operates from -55°C to 125°C. Additionally, the KEMET part has a lower maximum thickness (0.88mm vs 1.70mm).

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both VJ1206Y472KXCMP and C1206C472K2RAC7800 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Does the thickness difference affect PCB assembly?

A: The KEMET C1206C472K2RAC7800 with 0.035" (0.88mm) maximum thickness is thinner than the Vishay part at 0.067" (1.70mm). This may provide benefits in applications with strict height constraints, but both fit the standard 1206 footprint.

Q: Which part should I select for high-temperature applications?

A: For applications requiring operation above 125°C, the VJ1206Y472KXCMP with its -55°C to 150°C range is the appropriate choice.
