Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EEE-FPC151XAV is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 150 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 16 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial, Can - SMD (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.248" Dia (6.30 mm), Height 0.327" (8.30 mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Lifetime @ 105°C: 2000 Hrs (exact match required)
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Required for automotive applications
• RoHS3 compliance: Required for regulatory compliance

The EEE-FKC151XAV meets all substitution criteria with identical capacitance, voltage, tolerance, package, dimensions, temperature range, and lifetime specifications. Both parts are manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components and carry AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS3 compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the EEE-FPC151XAV and EEE-FKC151XAV are qualified for direct substitution based on matching electrical specifications, physical dimensions, and regulatory compliance. Both parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and RoHS3 compliance, ensuring suitability for automotive and high-temperature reflow applications.

The primary electrical difference between the two parts is ESR and ripple current handling. The EEE-FPC151XAV exhibits lower ESR (160 mOhm @ 100 kHz) and higher ripple current capability (600 mA @ 100 kHz) compared to the EEE-FKC151XAV (340 mOhm @ 100 kHz, 280 mA @ 100 kHz). Selection between these parts should be based on circuit requirements for ESR performance and ripple current handling at the operating frequency.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EEE-FKC151XAV be used as a direct replacement for the EEE-FPC151XAV?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (150 µF), voltage rating (16 V), tolerance (±20%), physical dimensions (0.248" Dia × 0.327" height), package type (Radial, Can - SMD), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), and lifetime specification (2000 Hrs @ 105°C). Both carry AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the difference in ESR between these parts?

A: The EEE-FPC151XAV has an ESR of 160 mOhm @ 100 kHz, while the EEE-FKC151XAV has an ESR of 340 mOhm @ 100 kHz. Lower ESR in the FPC series results in reduced heat generation and improved performance in high-frequency ripple current applications.
