Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:
Electrical Parameters (Must Match):
- Capacitance: 6800 pF
- Tolerance: ±5%
- Voltage - Rated: 50V
- Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):
- Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric)
- Size / Dimension: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)
Compliance Parameters (Must Match or Exceed):

Engineering Selection Recommendations
VJ1206A682JXAAT (Vishay Vitramon - MFR Recommended): This substitute offers C0G/NP0 temperature coefficient, providing superior temperature stability compared to X7R. All electrical and mechanical parameters match the main part. Recommended for applications requiring minimal capacitance drift across temperature extremes. Product status is Active with full ROHS3 compliance.
VJ1206Y682JXAAC (Vishay Vitramon - Parametric Equivalent): This substitute maintains identical specifications to the main part, including X7R temperature coefficient. Provides direct functional equivalence with same manufacturer. Product status is Active with full ROHS3 compliance. Suitable for direct replacement without application-level considerations.
C1206C682J5RAC7800 (KEMET - Direct Manufacturer Alternative): This substitute is manufactured by KEMET and maintains all critical electrical parameters. Operating temperature range is -55°C ~ 125°C, which is 25°C lower than the main part at the upper limit. Physical thickness is 0.035" (0.88mm) compared to 0.067" (1.70mm) for the main part, providing a lower profile option. Product status is Active with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. Suitable for space-constrained applications where the reduced operating temperature ceiling is acceptable.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can VJ1206A682JXAAT replace VJ1206Y682JXAMP directly on the PCB?
A: Yes. Both parts share identical package dimensions (1206/3216 Metric), capacitance (6800 pF), tolerance (±5%), and rated voltage (50V). The difference is temperature coefficient: VJ1206A682JXAAT uses C0G/NP0 instead of X7R. This substitution is valid when temperature stability is a design requirement or when supply of the original part is unavailable.
Q: What is the difference between X7R and C0G/NP0 temperature coefficients?
A: X7R provides ±15% capacitance change across the operating temperature range. C0G/NP0 provides ±30 ppm/°C, resulting in significantly lower capacitance drift. Selection depends on application sensitivity to capacitance variation with temperature.
Q: Is C1206C682J5RAC7800 suitable for all applications using VJ1206Y682JXAMP?
A: C1206C682J5RAC7800 is suitable when the operating temperature ceiling of 125°C is acceptable for your application. The main part supports up to 150°C. Additionally, the reduced physical thickness (0.035" vs 0.067") may affect PCB layout in space-constrained designs. Verify application temperature requirements before selection.
Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?
A: Yes. All listed substitutes (VJ1206A682JXAAT, VJ1206Y682JXAAC, and C1206C682J5RAC7800) are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), matching the main part specifications.
Q: Can I use these substitutes interchangeably in production?
A: All substitutes maintain the same 1206 package footprint and electrical ratings, allowing PCB-level interchangeability. However, temperature coefficient differences (X7R vs C0G/NP0) and operating temperature ranges must be evaluated against specific circuit requirements before production implementation.
