KEMET
A KEMET automotive-grade substitute with a significantly higher 50V rating.
Find verified substitutes for the Yageo CC0402KRX7R5BB103, a 10nF 6.3V 0402 X7R capacitor. Pin-compatible alternatives with higher voltage ratings and automotive-grade qualifications are readily available from multiple manufacturers.
Some alternatives have wider tolerance (±20% vs ±10%).
All strong candidates use the same 0402 package.
Avoid candidates marked NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs).
Direct replacement for CC0402KRX7R5BB103 should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Upgrade to an automotive-grade (AEC-Q200) part with a higher voltage rating, like Murata's GCM155R71E103KA37D or KEMET's C0402C103K5RACAUTO.
The main risk is selecting a part with a wider capacitance tolerance (e.g., ±20%) or a Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND) lifecycle status.
