Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the HHXJ250ARA331MHA0G is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Capacitance value must be 330 µF with ±20% tolerance. Voltage rating must be 25 V. ESR must be 22 mOhm. Lifetime specification must be 4000 Hrs @ 125°C. Operating temperature range must span -55°C to 125°C. Physical dimensions must match: 0.315" diameter (8.00mm) and 0.413" maximum seated height (10.50mm). Surface mount land size must be 0.327" L × 0.327" W (8.30mm × 8.30mm). Package type must be Radial, Can - SMD. AEC-Q200 automotive qualification is required. RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating must be maintained.

The substitute part 25PKV330M8X10.5 from Rubycon meets all these criteria and is classified as a parametric equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HHXJ250ARA331MHA0G and 25PKV330M8X10.5 are active production parts with full AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Both maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, suitable for unrestricted moisture exposure. Selection between these parts may be based on availability, lead time, or supply chain requirements. The Rubycon 25PKV330M8X10.5 currently has higher inventory availability at 2094 units compared to 927 units for the Chemi-Con part. Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the specified parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 25PKV330M8X10.5 be used as a direct replacement for the HHXJ250ARA331MHA0G?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (330 µF, 25 V, 22 mOhm ESR, 4000 Hrs @ 125°C), physical dimensions (8.00mm diameter, 10.50mm height), and surface mount land pattern (8.30mm × 8.30mm). Both carry AEC-Q200 qualification and ROHS3 compliance.

Q: Are there any differences in ripple current ratings?

A: The ripple current at high frequency (100 kHz) is identical at 2 A for both parts. Low frequency ripple current differs slightly: the HHXJ250ARA331MHA0G is rated at 300 mA @ 120 Hz, while the 25PKV330M8X10.5 is rated at 300 mA @ 100 Hz. This difference does not affect substitution eligibility.

Q: Do both parts require the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Both parts use identical surface mount land dimensions of 0.327" L × 0.327" W (8.30mm × 8.30mm) and the same radial can SMD package configuration. No PCB redesign is required.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both parts carry AEC-Q200 qualification and are rated for automotive use across the -55°C to 125°C operating temperature range.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for both parts?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 rating, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity level with no special storage or handling requirements.
