Physical Dimensions: 0.197" Dia (5.00mm), Height ≤ 0.228" (5.80mm), Land Size 0.209" L x 0.209" W (5.30mm x 5.30mm)
Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
AEC-Q200 Automotive Rating (required for automotive applications)

Flexible Parameters (Upgradeable):

Voltage Rating: 4 V or higher (higher voltage ratings are acceptable substitutes)
Lifetime @ Temperature: 1000 Hrs @ 85°C or higher (extended lifetime acceptable)
Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C or wider (extended range acceptable)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For New Designs: Select EEE-HAJ101WAR (Panasonic, 6.3 V, Active status) or EEE-HBJ101UAR (Panasonic, 6.3 V, 2000 Hrs @ 105°C, Active status). Both parts carry Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. EEE-HAJ101WAR provides equivalent thermal performance with extended temperature range. EEE-HBJ101UAR offers extended lifetime at elevated temperature, suitable for demanding automotive applications.

For Voltage-Constrained Applications: If the circuit operates at 4 V and cannot accommodate higher voltage ratings, select EEE-HB0G101R (Panasonic, 4 V, 2000 Hrs @ 105°C, Active status). This part maintains the original voltage rating while providing doubled lifetime and extended operating temperature range.

For Existing Production: EEE-0JA101WAR (Panasonic, 6.3 V, Active status) serves as a direct functional substitute with voltage upgrade capability and Active product status, ensuring continued availability for ongoing production runs.

Compliance Considerations: All recommended substitutes maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and RoHS/ROHS3 compliance. Physical dimensions remain compatible with existing PCB layouts for all recommended parts except EEE-FPJ101UAR and EEE-HBJ101UAR, which have maximum height of 0.228" (5.80mm) versus 0.213" (5.40mm) for the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a higher voltage-rated capacitor as a substitute? A: Yes. A capacitor rated for 6.3 V or 10 V can replace a 4 V rated capacitor in the same circuit. Higher voltage ratings provide additional safety margin and do not degrade circuit performance. The capacitance value, tolerance, package dimensions, and polarization must remain identical.

Q: What is the difference between Active and Not For New Designs status? A: Active status indicates the manufacturer continues production and guarantees long-term availability. Not For New Designs status indicates the part is being phased out and should not be selected for new product development. Existing inventory may be available, but future supply cannot be guaranteed.

Q: Are Panasonic and Rubycon parts interchangeable? A: Yes, provided all electrical and mechanical parameters match. The Rubycon 4SEV100M5X5.5 is electrically equivalent to the EEE-0GA101SR with identical capacitance, voltage, tolerance, and package type. However, Rubycon carries Last Time Buy status, indicating limited remaining inventory.

Q: Does extended lifetime affect circuit performance? A: No. Extended lifetime specifications (2000 Hrs @ 105°C versus 1000 Hrs @ 85°C) indicate improved internal construction and materials. Performance characteristics remain identical; only the operational lifespan under specified conditions is extended.

Q: What is the significance of the height difference between 0.213" and 0.228"? A: The 0.228" height applies to EEE-FPJ101UAR and EEE-HBJ101UAR. If PCB clearance is limited to 0.213", these parts cannot be used. Verify available vertical space before selecting these alternatives.

Q: Are all substitutes AEC-Q200 qualified? A: Yes. All recommended substitutes carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, meeting automotive industry reliability and quality standards.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean? A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicates the component has unlimited shelf life and requires no special moisture control during storage or handling. Standard warehouse conditions are acceptable.
