Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Z0201C560CSMST is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Impedance value: 56 Ohms @ 100 MHz
• Filter type: Signal Line
• Number of lines: 1
• Package designation: 0201 (0603 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm)
• Height: 0.013" (0.33mm) maximum
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Mounting type: Surface Mount

The MMZ0603F560ET000 from TDK Corporation meets all mandatory substitution criteria. While this substitute exhibits higher DC resistance (1.9 Ohm versus 1 Ohm) and includes a specified current rating (150mA), these parameters do not disqualify substitution when the primary impedance and physical form factor requirements are satisfied. Both components maintain identical compliance certifications and environmental ratings.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MMZ0603F560ET000 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Z0201C560CSMST. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The Z0201C560CSMST is classified as obsolete, while the MMZ0603F560ET000 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support.

Compliance Alignment: Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99, maintaining identical regulatory and environmental compliance profiles.

Electrical Equivalence: The substitute delivers the specified 56 Ohms impedance at 100 MHz with identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), satisfying core functional requirements for signal line EMI filtering applications.

Physical Compatibility: Identical package designation (0201/0603 Metric), dimensions (0.024" L x 0.012" W), and height (0.013" maximum) ensure direct footprint compatibility on existing printed circuit board layouts without design modification.

Environmental Rating: Both components carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification, indicating equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MMZ0603F560ET000 be used as a direct replacement for the Z0201C560CSMST?

A: Yes. The MMZ0603F560ET000 meets all mandatory substitution criteria: identical impedance (56 Ohms @ 100 MHz), filter type (signal line), package (0201/0603 Metric), physical dimensions, and operating temperature range. The component is electrically and mechanically compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the higher DC resistance in the substitute part?

A: The MMZ0603F560ET000 exhibits 1.9 Ohm maximum DC resistance compared to 1 Ohm in the original part. This parameter difference does not disqualify substitution when impedance matching and physical form factor requirements are met. DC resistance impact on circuit performance depends on application-specific current levels and signal characteristics.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The Z0201C560CSMST is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging, while the MMZ0603F560ET000 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both packaging formats are standard for surface mount components and do not affect component functionality or PCB compatibility.

Q: Does the substitute part include a current rating specification?

A: Yes. The MMZ0603F560ET000 specifies a maximum current rating of 150mA, whereas the original Z0201C560CSMST does not include a current rating specification. This additional specification in the substitute provides defined operating limits for current-carrying applications.

Q: Are compliance certifications identical between the two parts?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1 - Unlimited) is identical, ensuring equivalent handling and storage requirements throughout the supply chain.

Q: What is the impact of the product status difference?

A: The Z0201C560CSMST is obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The MMZ0603F560ET000 is active, ensuring ongoing production, supply chain availability, and manufacturer support for new designs and legacy system maintenance.
