Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EEE-1EA220WR is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility: Capacitance (22 µF) and tolerance (±20%) must remain constant. Voltage rating may be equal or higher; a higher voltage rating provides design margin and is acceptable. Operating temperature range must support the application's thermal requirements.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package type (Radial, Can - SMD), size (0.197" diameter, 5.00mm), height (0.213" maximum, 5.40mm), and surface mount land size (0.209" L x 0.209" W, 5.30mm x 5.30mm) must match to ensure PCB layout compatibility without redesign.

Reliability & Compliance: AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and RoHS compliance must be maintained. Lifetime at temperature may be equal or superior. MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) is standard across all candidates.

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories:

Upgrade Parts (Active Status): Parts with improved performance (higher voltage rating, extended lifetime, or lower ESR) while maintaining identical mechanical footprint and electrical base specifications. These are recommended for new designs and ongoing production.

Equivalent Parts (Not For New Designs): Parts with matching electrical and mechanical specifications but alternative series designations. These provide direct functional replacement but share the same product status limitation.

Similar Parts (Dimensional Variation): Parts with identical electrical specifications but different physical dimensions. These require PCB layout verification before substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Identical Footprint):

EEE-1VA220WAR and EEE-HAV220WAR are the primary upgrade candidates. Both maintain the exact mechanical footprint (0.197" diameter, 0.213" height, 5.30mm x 5.30mm land size) while offering 35 V voltage rating. EEE-1VA220WAR is designated Active and carries ROHS3 compliance, making it the preferred choice for new production. EEE-HAV220WAR also provides Active status with ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical specifications.

For Enhanced Performance (Slightly Taller Package):

EEE-FP1E220AR and EEE-FP1V220AR offer superior reliability with 2000-hour lifetime at 105°C and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C). These parts are 0.228" tall (5.80mm) versus the original 0.213" (5.40mm), requiring PCB layout verification. Both carry Active status and ROHS3 compliance. EEE-FP1V220AR provides the additional benefit of 35 V rating.

For Same-Voltage Upgrade:

EEE-HAE220WAR maintains 25 V rating with improved thermal performance (1000 hours at 105°C versus 85°C) and identical mechanical footprint. This part is Active with ROHS3 compliance.

For Highest Reliability:

EEE-FN1V220R delivers 2000-hour lifetime at 105°C with 35 V rating and extended temperature range. Height increases to 0.240" (6.10mm), requiring PCB redesign. This part is Active with ROHS3 compliance.

Avoid for New Designs:

EEE-1EA220SP, EEE-1VA220WR, EEE-HA1E220WR, and EEE-HA1V220WR are designated "Not For New Designs." While functionally compatible, these parts should not be selected for new product development.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 35 V rated capacitor in place of the 25 V original?

A: Yes. A higher voltage rating is electrically compatible and provides additional design margin. The 35 V variants (EEE-1VA220WAR, EEE-HAV220WAR, EEE-FP1V220AR) are direct mechanical replacements with identical footprints.

Q: What is the difference between EEE-1VA220WAR and EEE-HAV220WAR?

A: Both are 22 µF, 35 V, Active status parts with identical mechanical footprints and electrical specifications. The primary difference is series designation (1VA versus HA). Both are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for new designs.

Q: Why are some parts taller (0.228" vs 0.213")?

A: The FP series parts (EEE-FP1E220AR, EEE-FP1V220AR) achieve superior reliability (2000 hours at 105°C) through internal design changes that result in increased height. These require PCB layout verification before substitution.

Q: Can I use EEE-1EA220SP as a substitute?

A: EEE-1EA220SP has identical electrical specifications but a larger diameter (0.248" versus 0.197") and different land size (0.260" x 0.260" versus 0.209" x 0.209"). This part requires PCB redesign and is not recommended for new applications due to "Not For New Designs" status.

Q: What does "Not For New Designs" mean?

A: This designation indicates the part has been superseded in Panasonic's portfolio. While existing inventory may be available and the part remains functional, Panasonic recommends using Active status alternatives for new product development to ensure long-term supply continuity.

Q: Are all substitute parts AEC-Q200 qualified?

A: Yes. All parts listed maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ensuring compliance with automotive reliability standards.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: Both indicate lead-free compliance. ROHS3 represents the current standard. All substitute parts meet or exceed RoHS requirements.
