Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the ECE-T2AP682EA is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Capacitance Value: 6800 µF (exact match required)
  • Voltage Rating: 100 V (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
  • Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
  • Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
  • Package Style: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
  • Lifetime Rating: 3000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)

The two substitute parts identified—380LX682M100A052 (Cornell Dubilier Electronics) and SLPX682M100H9P3 (Cornell Dubilier Electronics)—meet all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in ESR, ripple current specifications, and lead spacing are within acceptable engineering tolerances for this capacitor category and do not preclude functional equivalence.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

380LX682M100A052 (Cornell Dubilier Electronics)

This part is the direct manufacturer equivalent. It carries Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant. The ESR specification (50 mOhm @ 120Hz) is within 2% of the original part. Height dimension is 2.047" (52.00mm), representing a 2mm increase over the original ECE-T2AP682EA. This minor dimensional variance is acceptable for most through-hole applications. Lead spacing is 0.394" (10.00mm), differing from the original 0.886" (22.50mm). Inventory availability is substantial at 10,720 pieces.

SLPX682M100H9P3 (Cornell Dubilier Electronics)

This part offers superior ESR performance at 39 mOhm @ 120Hz, approximately 20% lower than the original specification. It maintains Active product status and RoHS3 compliance. Height dimension matches the original at 1.969" (50.00mm). Lead spacing is 0.394" (10.00mm). Ripple current at 120 Hz is specified at 6.01 A, approximately 9% lower than the original. Inventory availability is 3,907 pieces.

Both substitutes are functionally equivalent based on core electrical parameters. Selection between them depends on specific application requirements regarding ESR performance, physical height constraints, and lead spacing compatibility with existing PCB layouts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 380LX682M100A052 be used as a direct replacement for the ECE-T2AP682EA?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (6800 µF), voltage rating (100 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), and lifetime rating (3000 Hrs @ 85°C). The 2mm height difference (52.00mm vs. 50.00mm) and lead spacing change (0.394" vs. 0.886") require verification against PCB layout constraints.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are ESR (50 mOhm for 380LX682M100A052 vs. 39 mOhm for SLPX682M100H9P3), ripple current at 120 Hz (6.6 A vs. 6.01 A), and height dimension (2.047" vs. 1.969"). Both meet the core electrical specifications of the original part.

Q: Are there lead spacing compatibility issues?

A: The original ECE-T2AP682EA specifies 0.886" (22.50mm) lead spacing, while both substitutes specify 0.394" (10.00mm). PCB hole patterns must be verified for compatibility before implementation.

Q: What is the product status of the substitute parts?

A: Both 380LX682M100A052 and SLPX682M100H9P3 are Active products from Cornell Dubilier Electronics, ensuring ongoing availability and support.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 380LX682M100A052 and SLPX682M100H9P3 are RoHS3 compliant. The original ECE-T2AP682EA does not specify RoHS status.
