Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ECW-H16622JL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 6200 pF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±5% (exact match required)
• DC voltage rating: minimum 1600V (1.6kV)
• Dielectric material: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized
• Mounting type: Through Hole Radial
• Lead spacing: 0.591" (15.00mm)
• Termination: PC Pins

The B32672L1622J000 meets all substitution criteria with identical capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, dielectric material, mounting configuration, and lead spacing. Physical dimensions differ slightly, but the radial package footprint remains compatible with the specified lead spacing.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The B32672L1622J000 is a direct functional equivalent for the ECW-H16622JL. Both components share identical electrical specifications for capacitance, tolerance, and DC voltage rating. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability compared to the obsolete original part.

The B32672L1622J000 provides ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting modern regulatory requirements. The extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C versus -40°C to 110°C) provides additional thermal margin. Physical dimensions are more compact, with reduced height and width, which may provide layout advantages in space-constrained applications while maintaining the critical 15.00mm lead spacing for PCB compatibility.

The AC voltage rating differs (600V versus 1200V), but this parameter is not a limiting factor for DC-biased applications where the 1600V DC rating is the primary specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the B32672L1622J000 be used as a direct replacement for the ECW-H16622JL?

A: Yes. Both components have identical capacitance (6200 pF), tolerance (±5%), DC voltage rating (1600V), dielectric material (polypropylene metallized), lead spacing (15.00mm), and termination type (PC pins). The radial through-hole mounting configuration is compatible with existing PCB layouts designed for the original part.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences?

A: The B32672L1622J000 has a more compact profile: 18.00mm length x 5.00mm width with 10.50mm seated height, compared to the ECW-H16622JL at 18.00mm length x 7.50mm width with 16.00mm seated height. The critical lead spacing of 15.00mm remains identical, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Does the lower AC voltage rating of the B32672L1622J000 affect substitution?

A: No. The AC voltage rating (600V versus 1200V) is not a limiting factor for applications where the DC voltage rating of 1600V is the primary design specification. Both parts meet the DC voltage requirement identically.

Q: What compliance advantages does the substitute part offer?

A: The B32672L1622J000 is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory standards. The original ECW-H16622JL compliance status is not specified. The substitute part also has an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C), providing additional thermal margin compared to the original part (-40°C to 110°C).

Q: Is the B32672L1622J000 currently available?

A: Yes. The B32672L1622J000 is in active production status with documented inventory availability, whereas the ECW-H16622JL is obsolete.
