CL10A105KA8NNNC is a 1uF 25V X5R 0603 MLCC. Alternatives should keep the 0603 case and be checked for dielectric behavior.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

X7R differs from X5R.

Package risklow

Most candidates are 0603 1608.

Firmware risklow

Passive MLCC; no firmware.

Sourcing riskmedium

Some close matches are obsolete.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for CL10A105KA8NNNC should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

Use an active 0603 Samsung or Taiyo X7R option only if X7R capacitance behavior is acceptable.

Main risk

Dielectric and DC bias differences can change effective capacitance.
