ECQ-UBAF222VB Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ECQ-UBAF222VB is a 2200 pF film capacitor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components, designed for EMI and RFI suppression applications. This radial polypropylene metallized capacitor operates at 300V AC with a ±10% tolerance and is rated for X1, Y2 safety classifications. The part is currently active in production with 965 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, lead time requirements, or design flexibility necessitate alternative sourcing while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ECQ-UBAF222VB are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The substitution logic is based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 2200 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating - AC: 300V (exact match required)
• Dielectric Material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 110°C (exact match required)
• Safety Ratings: X1, Y2 (exact match required)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.591" (15.00mm) (exact match required)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.669" (17.00mm) (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins (exact match required)

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Series: ECQUB (same product family)

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as parametric equivalents and direct substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ECQ-UBAF222V5 is a direct parametric equivalent to the ECQ-UBAF222VB. Both parts are manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components within the ECQUB series and share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications.

Selection Criteria:

Both parts are active products with current production status and ROHS3 compliance. The ECQ-UBAF222V5 offers higher inventory availability (2592 units versus 965 units), which may provide advantages for procurement lead time and supply chain continuity. The parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for all EMI and RFI suppression applications requiring 2200 pF, 300V AC, polypropylene film capacitors with radial through-hole mounting.

Selection between these parts should be based on inventory availability, procurement timelines, and supply chain requirements rather than technical performance, as both parts deliver identical functional characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ECQ-UBAF222V5 be used as a direct replacement for ECQ-UBAF222VB?

A: Yes. The ECQ-UBAF222V5 is a direct parametric equivalent. All electrical parameters (capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, dielectric material, temperature range, safety ratings) and mechanical parameters (package type, lead spacing, height, termination) are identical. The parts are interchangeable in circuit design and PCB layout.

Q: Are there any differences in the physical dimensions between these parts?

A: No. Both parts have identical dimensions: 0.602" L x 0.197" W (15.30mm x 5.00mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.669" (17.00mm) and lead spacing of 0.591" (15.00mm). PCB footprints and mounting requirements are identical.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both ECQ-UBAF222VB and ECQ-UBAF222V5 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry X1, Y2 safety ratings. Compliance certifications are identical.

Q: What is the difference between these part numbers?

A: The part numbers differ only in the suffix designation (VB versus V5). Both parts belong to the same ECQUB series and share the same base product number ECQ-UBAF222. The suffix variation reflects internal Panasonic manufacturing or distribution coding and does not indicate functional or electrical differences.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in EMI and RFI suppression circuits?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for EMI and RFI suppression applications and deliver identical performance in these circuits. The 300V AC rating, polypropylene dielectric, and X1, Y2 safety classifications are identical across both parts.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Either part is suitable for new designs. Selection should be based on inventory availability and procurement lead times. The ECQ-UBAF222V5 currently has higher stock levels (2592 units), which may provide supply chain advantages.

Q: Are the operating temperature ranges the same?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 110°C, ensuring equivalent thermal performance in all operating environments.
