Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 568LMB063M2DF is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 5600 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 63 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Lifetime: 3000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.394" (10.00 mm) (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 1.181" Dia (30.00 mm) and 1.654" Height (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package Style: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The substitute part LGU1J562MELB manufactured by Nichicon meets all mandatory matching parameters and is classified as a parametric equivalent. This part maintains identical electrical specifications, physical form factor, and regulatory compliance status, enabling direct substitution in circuit applications.
