WMF6D1K-F Film Capacitor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The WMF6D1K-F is a 1000 pF film capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) with a 630V DC voltage rating and polyester dielectric. This axial through-hole component is classified as Active product status with 829 units currently in stock. Film capacitors in this specification range are used in general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance and low dissipation characteristics. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical parameters and mechanical compatibility allow direct replacement in circuit designs.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the WMF6D1K-F are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 1000 pF (exact match required)
  • Voltage rating: 630V DC minimum
  • Tolerance: ±10% or tighter
  • Dielectric type: Polyester composition
  • Mounting configuration: Through-hole axial
  • Termination: PC pins

Compliance Requirements:

  • RoHS3 compliance status
  • REACH unaffected classification
  • ECCN EAR99 export control designation

The substitute part 102MWR630K meets these criteria with matching capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and dielectric material. Physical dimensions differ (5.50mm × 11.50mm versus 5.00mm × 20.60mm), which may affect PCB layout but does not prevent functional substitution in through-hole applications with adequate board space.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part - WMF6D1K-F:

  • Use when original form factor and temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) are required
  • Suitable for applications requiring extended low-temperature operation
  • Active product status with established supply (829 units in stock)
  • ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected

Substitute Part - 102MWR630K:

  • Use when compact form factor (5.50mm × 11.50mm) is advantageous for PCB layout
  • Acceptable for applications with operating temperature range -40°C ~ 105°C
  • Metallized polyester dielectric provides low ESR characteristics
  • Active product status with higher inventory availability (1501 units in stock)
  • ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected
  • AC voltage rating of 220V provides additional capability not specified in primary part

Selection Criteria:

  • If temperature extremes below -40°C are required, use WMF6D1K-F
  • If PCB space is constrained, 102MWR630K offers 44% reduction in length
  • Both parts meet identical DC voltage, capacitance, tolerance, and compliance requirements
  • Both parts are through-hole axial configurations with PC pin termination

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 102MWR630K directly replace WMF6D1K-F in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is possible for applications operating within -40°C to 105°C temperature range. If your circuit operates below -40°C, the WMF6D1K-F is required due to its extended temperature rating to -55°C.

Q: What is the difference between polyester and metallized polyester dielectric?

A: Both are polyester-based dielectrics. The 102MWR630K uses metallized polyester construction, which provides lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) and is noted as a feature. The WMF6D1K-F uses standard polyester. Both meet the 1000 pF, 630V, ±10% specification.

Q: Will the different physical dimensions affect my PCB design?

A: Yes. The 102MWR630K is significantly more compact (11.50mm length versus 20.60mm). Verify that your PCB layout can accommodate the substitute's 5.50mm diameter and 11.50mm length. Both are axial through-hole components with standard PC pin spacing.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both WMF6D1K-F and 102MWR630K are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements.

Q: What does the AC voltage rating of 220V on the substitute part mean?

A: The 102MWR630K is rated for 220V AC operation in addition to its 630V DC rating. The WMF6D1K-F does not specify an AC voltage rating. This additional AC rating on the substitute does not affect DC circuit compatibility.

Q: Which part should I choose for new designs?

A: For new designs, either part is acceptable based on your specific requirements. If temperature range is not a constraint, the 102MWR630K offers space savings and higher inventory availability. If extended temperature operation is required, specify WMF6D1K-F.

Q: Are there any lead spacing differences between these parts?

A: Lead spacing is not specified for either part in the provided data. Both are axial through-hole components with PC pin termination. Verify physical dimensions against your PCB hole pattern before final selection.
