A 1nF capacitor with higher voltage but wider tolerance and a less stable temperature characteristic.
Finding a substitute for the STE R08B1B102KN0B0S0N0, a 1nF 2kV Y5P ceramic capacitor, requires careful matching of electrical and physical parameters. Alternatives often involve trade-offs in tolerance or temperature stability.
Using a part with a less stable dielectric (Y5U/Y5V) or wider tolerance can impact circuit timing or filtering performance.
Lead pitch and disc diameter must be verified to ensure fit on the PCB, as this data is missing for the target.
No direct drop-in replacement was found. U12E1D102MN0B0S0N0 is a potential functional alternative but requires engineering review due to its wider tolerance and less stable temperature characteristic.
Find a capacitor with 1nF capacitance, ≥2kV voltage, ≤±10% tolerance, a Y5P or better tempco (e.g., C0G/NP0), and matching physical dimensions.
The main risks are circuit malfunction from a part with wider tolerance or a less stable temperature characteristic (Y5U/Y5V vs Y5P).

The ideal alternative matches 1nF, 2kV, ±10%, Y5P, and the physical package. U12E1D102MN0B0S0N0 is a possibility if wider tolerance (±20%) and a Y5U dielectric are acceptable for your application.
