DPPM16S22K-F Film Capacitor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The DPPM16S22K-F is a 0.022 µF film capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE), rated for 1600V DC operation with polypropylene metallized dielectric construction. This radial through-hole component is designed for high-frequency switching, high-pulse applications, and snubber circuits. The part maintains Active product status with 868 units in current inventory stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance is required but the original part is unavailable, or when alternative packaging or tolerance specifications better suit specific application requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the DPPM16S22K-F is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Capacitance value: 0.022 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - DC: 1600V minimum (1.6kV)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 500V minimum
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (required for performance characteristics)

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole (required for PCB assembly compatibility)
• Package / Case: Radial (required for footprint compatibility)
• Termination: PC Pins (required for soldering compatibility)

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant status (mandatory for regulatory alignment)

The substitute part 715P223516MD3 meets all electrical equivalence requirements and mechanical compatibility criteria. Tolerance variation (±5% versus ±10%) and operating temperature range differences are secondary parameters that do not prevent substitution when the primary electrical and mechanical specifications align.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: DPPM16S22K-F

Use the DPPM16S22K-F when the original specification calls for the DPPM series designation and the operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C is required. This part is Active status with established supply (868 units in stock). ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status confirm regulatory alignment for current manufacturing standards.

Substitute Selection: 715P223516MD3

The 715P223516MD3 (Orange Drop® 715P series) is electrically and mechanically equivalent for applications where the DPPM16S22K-F is unavailable. This substitute maintains identical capacitance (0.022 µF), voltage ratings (1600V DC / 500V AC), and dielectric material (polypropylene metallized). Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and Active status.

Selection Constraints:

The operating temperature range differs between parts. The DPPM16S22K-F operates from -40°C to 105°C, while the 715P223516MD3 operates from -55°C to 85°C. Select based on application temperature requirements. The 715P223516MD3 offers tighter tolerance (±5% versus ±10%), which may provide improved circuit performance in precision applications but is not required for substitution.

Physical dimensions differ: DPPM16S22K-F measures 1.220" L x 0.709" W (31.00mm x 18.00mm) with 1.043" lead spacing, while 715P223516MD3 measures 0.689" Dia x 1.650" L (17.50mm x 41.90mm) with 1.094" lead spacing. Verify PCB layout compatibility before substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 715P223516MD3 directly replace the DPPM16S22K-F on a PCB?

A: Electrical substitution is valid. However, physical dimensions differ significantly. The DPPM16S22K-F is 31.00mm long with 26.50mm lead spacing, while the 715P223516MD3 is 41.90mm long with 27.80mm lead spacing. PCB layout must accommodate the larger footprint of the substitute part. Lead spacing is similar (26.50mm vs 27.80mm), but verify hole positioning before assembly.

Q: What are the critical parameters that make these parts equivalent?

A: Equivalence is established through: (1) identical capacitance value of 0.022 µF, (2) identical DC voltage rating of 1600V, (3) identical AC voltage rating of 500V, (4) identical dielectric material (polypropylene metallized), (5) identical mounting type (through-hole radial), and (6) identical termination (PC pins). Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and Active status.

Q: Does the ±5% tolerance of the substitute part affect circuit performance?

A: The 715P223516MD3 tolerance of ±5% is tighter than the DPPM16S22K-F tolerance of ±10%. Tighter tolerance does not negatively affect performance; it may improve circuit precision in applications sensitive to capacitance variation. No circuit redesign is required when substituting with the tighter tolerance part.

Q: Are there temperature limitations when using the 715P223516MD3 as a substitute?

A: Yes. The DPPM16S22K-F operates from -40°C to 105°C, while the 715P223516MD3 operates from -55°C to 85°C. The substitute part has a lower maximum temperature (85°C versus 105°C). If the application requires operation above 85°C, the 715P223516MD3 is not suitable. For applications within -55°C to 85°C, both parts are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between the DPPM and Orange Drop® 715P series?

A: Both are Cornell Dubilier Electronics film capacitors with identical electrical specifications for this 0.022 µF 1600V application. The DPPM series and Orange Drop® 715P series are distinct product lines from the same manufacturer. Series designation does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility when all other parameters match.

Q: Is the substitute part available in sufficient quantity?

A: Yes. The 715P223516MD3 has 1551 units in current inventory stock, compared to 868 units for the DPPM16S22K-F. Both parts are Active status with established supply chains.
