Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ECW-H16822JL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 8200 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
• Package configuration: Radial
• Lead spacing: 15.00 mm (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins

The B32672L1822J000 meets all substitution criteria. Both parts share identical capacitance, tolerance, DC voltage rating, dielectric composition, mounting configuration, and lead spacing. Physical dimensions differ within acceptable mechanical envelope constraints for radial film capacitors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The B32672L1822J000 is a direct functional substitute for the ECW-H16822JL. Both components satisfy the core electrical requirements: 8200 pF capacitance, ±5% tolerance, and 1600V DC rating with polypropylene metallized dielectric.

The B32672L1822J000 offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. This part carries ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards. The extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C versus -40°C to 110°C) provides additional thermal margin.

Physical dimensions differ: the B32672L1822J000 is more compact (11.00 mm seated height versus 17.00 mm, and 6.00 mm width versus 8.50 mm width). Lead spacing remains identical at 15.00 mm, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility. Verify available board space before selection if dimensional constraints exist.

The AC voltage rating differs (600V for B32672L1822J000 versus 1200V for ECW-H16822JL). For DC-only applications, this difference is not relevant. For AC or mixed AC/DC circuits, confirm that 600V AC rating meets circuit requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the B32672L1822J000 replace the ECW-H16822JL in all applications?

A: Yes, for DC applications and circuits where the 600V AC rating is sufficient. Both parts share identical DC voltage rating (1600V), capacitance (8200 pF), tolerance (±5%), and lead spacing (15.00 mm). Verify AC voltage requirements if the circuit operates in AC or mixed AC/DC mode.

Q: Will the B32672L1822J000 fit the existing PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Lead spacing is identical at 15.00 mm, ensuring through-hole compatibility. The B32672L1822J000 is physically more compact (11.00 mm height versus 17.00 mm, 6.00 mm width versus 8.50 mm). No PCB redesign is required.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The ECW-H16822JL is obsolete, meaning Panasonic no longer manufactures or supports this part. The B32672L1822J000 is active, ensuring long-term availability, consistent supply, and manufacturer technical support.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: The B32672L1822J000 carries ROHS3 compliance certification. The ECW-H16822JL compliance status is not specified in available documentation. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the B32672L1822J000 is the appropriate selection.

Q: How do the operating temperature ranges compare?

A: The B32672L1822J000 operates from -55°C to 110°C, while the ECW-H16822JL operates from -40°C to 110°C. The B32672L1822J000 provides 15°C additional low-temperature margin. For standard industrial applications, both ranges are equivalent.

Q: What does the AC voltage rating difference mean for my circuit?

A: DC voltage rating (1600V) is the primary specification for both parts and is identical. AC voltage rating applies only to circuits with AC or mixed AC/DC operation. If your circuit operates at DC only, the AC rating difference is not relevant. For AC applications, confirm that 600V AC is sufficient for your circuit requirements.
