Engineering Selection Recommendations

SLPX222M100C7P3 (Cornell Dubilier Electronics)

This substitute part is manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics, the same parent organization as the original part manufacturer. All electrical parameters align with the 228LBB100M2CF specification. The ESR value of 121 mOhm is marginally higher than the original 113.04 mOhm, remaining within acceptable tolerance for general-purpose applications. The height dimension of 1.575" (40.00mm) is 0.079" shorter than the original, which may provide a space advantage in compact circuit board layouts. Product status is Active with full RoHS3 and REACH compliance. Inventory availability is substantial at 16,883 pieces.

LLS2A222MELA (Nichicon)

This substitute part is manufactured by Nichicon, a recognized producer of aluminum electrolytic capacitors. All critical electrical parameters match the original specification. The ESR value is not specified in the provided data. The height dimension of 1.654" (42.00mm) matches the original exactly. Product status is Active with full RoHS3 and REACH compliance. Inventory availability is 1,137 pieces. This part is suitable for applications where manufacturer diversity is required or where Nichicon components are preferred in the supply chain.

Both substitute parts maintain full compatibility with the 228LBB100M2CF in terms of electrical performance, mechanical fit, and regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SLPX222M100C7P3 be used as a direct replacement for 228LBB100M2CF?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (2200 µF), voltage rating (100 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), and lifetime specification (3000 Hrs @ 85°C). The package type, lead spacing, and diameter are identical. The ESR difference of 7.96 mOhm is within acceptable variation for general-purpose applications.

Q: What is the height difference between 228LBB100M2CF and SLPX222M100C7P3?

A: The 228LBB100M2CF has a maximum seated height of 1.654" (42.00mm), while the SLPX222M100C7P3 measures 1.575" (40.00mm). This 0.079" (2.00mm) difference should be verified against circuit board layout constraints before substitution.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both SLPX222M100C7P3 and LLS2A222MELA are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance status of the original 228LBB100M2CF.

Q: What is the significance of ESR variation between these parts?

A: ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) affects heat generation and voltage ripple performance. The 228LBB100M2CF specifies 113.04 mOhm @ 120Hz, while SLPX222M100C7P3 specifies 121 mOhm @ 120Hz. This 7.96 mOhm increase is acceptable for general-purpose applications but should be evaluated in high-ripple-current or thermally constrained designs.

Q: Can LLS2A222MELA be substituted if ESR is critical to the application?

A: The ESR value for LLS2A222MELA is not specified in the provided data. If ESR is a critical parameter for your application, the 228LBB100M2CF or SLPX222M100C7P3 should be selected, as both provide documented ESR specifications.

Q: Are these parts suitable for snap-in mounting on standard PCB connectors?

A: Yes. All three parts are classified as Radial, Can - Snap-In with identical lead spacing of 0.394" (10.00mm) and diameter of 0.984" (25.00mm), ensuring compatibility with standard snap-in connector footprints.

Q: What is the inventory status of these substitute parts?

A: The 228LBB100M2CF has 1,079 pieces in stock. SLPX222M100C7P3 has 16,883 pieces available. LLS2A222MELA has 1,137 pieces available. Inventory levels should be confirmed at the time of procurement.
