EEE-FT1C102AV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EEE-FT1C102AV is a 1000 µF, 16 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in surface mount radial can package manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. This component is rated for automotive applications and high temperature reflow processes, with AEC-Q200 qualification and ROHS3 compliance. The part is currently in active production status with 1237 units available in inventory.

Substitute parts are necessary when the primary part becomes unavailable, when design requirements demand extended operational lifetime, or when alternative electrical characteristics better suit specific circuit performance needs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EEE-FT1C102AV is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Capacitance: 1000 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 16 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Package Type: Radial, Can - SMD (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 10.00 mm Dia × 10.80 mm Height (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

Secondary Substitution Parameters (allowable variation):

• ESR @ 100 kHz: 60 mOhm baseline; higher values acceptable within circuit design limits
• Lifetime @ 105°C: 2000 Hrs baseline; extended lifetime acceptable
• Ripple Current ratings: variation acceptable based on circuit requirements
• Series designation: FT series preferred; alternative series acceptable if all primary criteria met

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliance (mandatory)
• AEC-Q200 Rating (mandatory for automotive applications)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 105°C (exact match required)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

EEE-FT1C102GV (Direct Substitute - Preferred)

The EEE-FT1C102GV is a direct substitute for the EEE-FT1C102AV. All primary electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. The EEE-FT1C102GV offers extended operational lifetime of 5000 hours at 105°C compared to 2000 hours for the main part. Both parts maintain identical ESR characteristics, ripple current ratings, and physical dimensions. The EEE-FT1C102GV is in active production status with higher inventory availability (1841 units). Both parts carry AEC-Q200 qualification and ROHS3 compliance, making them fully interchangeable for automotive and high temperature reflow applications.

EEE-FK1C102SV (Parametric Equivalent - Limited Application)

The EEE-FK1C102SV meets all primary substitution criteria for capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, package type, and physical dimensions. However, this part exhibits higher ESR (80 mOhm versus 60 mOhm) and reduced ripple current ratings at both low frequency (552.5 mA versus 833 mA @ 120 Hz) and high frequency (850 mA versus 1.19 A @ 100 kHz). The EEE-FK1C102SV carries a "Not For New Designs" product status, indicating this part is in end-of-life phase. While AEC-Q200 qualified and ROHS3 compliant, the EEE-FK1C102SV should be used only when the EEE-FT1C102AV and EEE-FT1C102GV are unavailable and circuit design margins accommodate the higher ESR and reduced ripple current specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EEE-FT1C102GV be used as a direct replacement for EEE-FT1C102AV?

A: Yes. The EEE-FT1C102GV is a direct substitute. All electrical parameters, physical dimensions, and compliance ratings are identical. The extended lifetime specification of the EEE-FT1C102GV provides additional operational margin without requiring circuit redesign.

Q: What are the limitations of using EEE-FK1C102SV as a substitute?

A: The EEE-FK1C102SV has higher ESR (80 mOhm versus 60 mOhm) and lower ripple current ratings. These differences may affect circuit performance in applications with high ripple current demands or stringent ESR requirements. Additionally, the "Not For New Designs" status indicates this part is in end-of-life phase. Use only when primary substitutes are unavailable and circuit design margins are verified.

Q: Are all substitute parts automotive-qualified?

A: Yes. Both EEE-FT1C102GV and EEE-FK1C102SV carry AEC-Q200 qualification, meeting automotive industry reliability standards.

Q: Do substitute parts require PCB layout modifications?

A: No. All substitute parts share identical physical dimensions (10.00 mm diameter, 10.80 mm height) and surface mount land size (10.30 mm × 10.30 mm). PCB layouts require no modification.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part and all substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the difference between the FT and FKS series?

A: Both series are anti-vibration aluminum electrolytic capacitors qualified for automotive applications. The FT series represents current production, while the FKS series is in end-of-life phase. For new designs, the FT series is preferred.
