108LMX200M2EE Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 108LMX200M2EE is a 1000 µF, 200 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier / Illinois Capacitor in the LMX series. This radial, can-style snap-in capacitor is designed for general-purpose applications requiring through-hole mounting. The part is currently active in production with 935 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support procurement flexibility, inventory management, and supply chain continuity when the primary part becomes unavailable or when alternative specifications better suit application requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 108LMX200M2EE are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The following parameters must match or remain within acceptable tolerances for direct substitution:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 1000 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 200 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C to 105°C (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.394" (10.00 mm) (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 1.378" Dia × 1.457" Height (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

• Lifetime @ 105°C: May exceed the 5000-hour specification
• ESR: May vary; substitute specifications are acceptable if not explicitly constrained by application
• Ripple Current: May vary within manufacturer tolerances
• Manufacturer: Different manufacturers acceptable if all other parameters align

The ETXH201VSN102MA35S from Chemi-Con qualifies as a substitute part because it matches all critical parameters while offering an extended lifetime specification of 10,000 hours at 105°C.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part: 108LMX200M2EE

The 108LMX200M2EE remains the primary selection when available. This part is active in production, RoHS3 compliant, and carries a 5000-hour lifetime rating at 105°C. Current inventory of 935 units supports immediate procurement.

Substitute Part: ETXH201VSN102MA35S

The ETXH201VSN102MA35S from Chemi-Con is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent. All critical parameters match the primary part exactly. The substitute offers an extended lifetime specification of 10,000 hours at 105°C, which represents an improvement over the primary part's 5000-hour rating. Both parts are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected. The substitute is suitable for applications where the primary part is unavailable or where extended operational life at elevated temperature is beneficial. Current inventory of 1,142 units supports procurement.

Both parts are suitable for general-purpose applications requiring 1000 µF capacitance at 200 V with through-hole snap-in mounting. Selection between them should be based on availability and application-specific lifetime requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ETXH201VSN102MA35S replace the 108LMX200M2EE in existing designs?

A: Yes. The ETXH201VSN102MA35S is a direct substitute. All electrical ratings (capacitance, voltage, tolerance, temperature range) and mechanical specifications (lead spacing, physical dimensions, package type, mounting method) are identical. The substitute can be used as a drop-in replacement without circuit modification.

Q: What is the difference between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer and lifetime rating. The 108LMX200M2EE (Cornell Dubilier) is rated for 5000 hours at 105°C. The ETXH201VSN102MA35S (Chemi-Con) is rated for 10,000 hours at 105°C. The substitute offers double the operational lifetime at elevated temperature. ESR specifications are not provided for the substitute part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 108LMX200M2EE is RoHS3 compliant. The ETXH201VSN102MA35S is RoHS compliant. Both parts meet regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Do these parts have identical physical dimensions?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical lead spacing (0.394" / 10.00 mm), diameter (1.378" / 35.00 mm), and maximum seated height (1.457" / 37.00 mm). Both use radial, can-style snap-in packaging. They are mechanically interchangeable on PCBs designed for either part.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: Selection depends on availability and application requirements. For applications where extended lifetime at 105°C is beneficial, the ETXH201VSN102MA35S is preferred. For applications with standard lifetime requirements, either part is acceptable based on availability and lead time.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with PCB layout?

A: No. Both parts use identical through-hole mounting with 0.394" lead spacing and identical physical dimensions. Existing PCB layouts designed for either part require no modification.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
