AI replacement insight

Electrical risklow

Risk is low if selecting a replacement with an X7R dielectric and an equal or higher voltage rating.

Package risklow

The 0603 package is a standard size, ensuring physical compatibility with the PCB layout.

Sourcing risklow

The recommended active replacements are widely available from major manufacturers like Samsung and Taiyo Yuden.

Can it be replaced directly?

Yes, Samsung's CL10B105KA8NNNC is an active, pin-compatible replacement with the same 1uF capacitance, 25V rating, X7R dielectric, and 0603 package.

Best replacement path

Replace with Samsung CL10B105KA8NNNC for a direct match, or upgrade to Taiyo Yuden UMK107AB7105KA-T for a higher 50V rating.

Main risk

The primary risk is substituting with a capacitor that has a different dielectric, such as X5R, which has inferior temperature stability compared to the original X7R.
