Is there a pin-compatible replacement for GRM1885C1H242JA01D?

Several parts share the same 0603 package, but none have the same 2.4nF capacitance. A pin-compatible part with different electrical values is not a drop-in replacement.

What risks should I check before replacing GRM1885C1H242JA01D?

The primary risk is the capacitance difference. Verify if your circuit can tolerate a different capacitance value. Also, ensure the replacement has a C0G/NP0 dielectric for temperature stability, and a voltage rating of at least 50V.
