Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—568LMB063M2EE, 381LX562M063A032, and LGU1J562MELC—are Active status components with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected designation. They are electrically and mechanically equivalent for general-purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor applications.

568LMB063M2EE (Cornell Dubilier / Illinois Capacitor): Primary choice with documented ESR of 88.8141 mOhm @ 120 Hz and ripple current specifications at both low and high frequencies. Inventory: 1082 Pcs.

381LX562M063A032 (Cornell Dubilier Electronics): Direct substitute from the same manufacturer family (381LX series). Maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Inventory: 1730 Pcs.

LGU1J562MELC (Nichicon): Alternative manufacturer option with equivalent performance parameters. Nichicon LGU series provides comparable ripple current handling. Inventory: 1171 Pcs.

Selection between these parts should be based on availability, supply chain requirements, and design qualification history rather than electrical performance differences, as all three meet the specified parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 381LX562M063A032 be used as a direct replacement for 568LMB063M2EE?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (5600 µF), voltage rating (63 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (3000 Hrs @ 105°C), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C), lead spacing (10.00mm), physical dimensions (1.378" Dia × 1.457" Height), and package type (Radial, Can - Snap-In). Both are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected.

Q: Is the LGU1J562MELC from Nichicon compatible with the original 568LMB063M2EE design?

A: Yes. The LGU1J562MELC meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. It has the same capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, lifetime, operating temperature range, lead spacing, and physical dimensions. The ripple current at 120 Hz is 3.24 A compared to 3.3 A in the original part, which remains within acceptable tolerance for general-purpose applications.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitutability?

A: Substitutability is determined by exact matching of: capacitance value (5600 µF), voltage rating (63 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime specification (3000 Hrs @ 105°C), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C), lead spacing (10.00mm), physical dimensions (1.378" Dia × 1.457" Height), package type (Radial, Can - Snap-In), and mounting type (Through Hole). Compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected) must also be maintained.

Q: Are there differences in ESR or ripple current specifications between these parts?

A: The 568LMB063M2EE specifies ESR of 88.8141 mOhm @ 120 Hz. The 381LX562M063A032 does not provide ESR data in the available specifications. Both parts specify 3.3 A ripple current @ 120 Hz. The LGU1J562MELC specifies 3.24 A @ 120 Hz. These variations are within normal manufacturing tolerances for aluminum electrolytic capacitors in this category.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-frequency applications?

A: All three parts are rated for ripple current at high frequencies. The 568LMB063M2EE specifies 4.125 A @ 10 kHz, the 381LX562M063A032 specifies 3.8 A @ 20 kHz, and the LGU1J562MELC specifies 3.726 A @ 50 kHz. Selection should be based on the specific frequency requirements of the application.

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

A: The 568LMB063M2EE and 381LX562M063A032 are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited). The LGU1J562MELC is rated Not Applicable. All three parts are suitable for standard storage and handling conditions without special moisture control requirements.
