Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the KY16VB822M18X35LL are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The following criteria determine substitution eligibility:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Capacitance: 8200 µF
• Voltage Rating: 16 V
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Lifetime: 10000 Hrs @ 105°C
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 105°C
• Polarization: Polar
• Impedance: 14 mOhms
• Ripple Current @ 100 kHz: 4.22 A

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial, Can
• Size / Dimension: 0.709" Dia (18.00mm)
• Lead Spacing: 0.295" (7.50mm)

Allowable Variations:

• Height - Seated (Max): Variation permitted within physical board clearance constraints
• Ripple Current @ 120 Hz: Minor variation acceptable (within 5% tolerance)
• RoHS Status: Compliance upgrades permitted
• Product Status: Active or Not For New Designs both acceptable for substitution

Two substitute parts meet these criteria and are grouped accordingly.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

EKY-160ELL822MMP1S (Chemi-Con):

This part is the preferred upgrade substitute for KY16VB822M18X35LL. Both components are manufactured by Chemi-Con within the same KY series and maintain identical electrical specifications. The EKY-160ELL822MMP1S achieves ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements where the original part does not. The height difference of 0.059" (1.50mm) is within typical board clearance tolerances for through-hole applications. Inventory availability is higher at 1221 pieces. This part is suitable for new designs and existing applications requiring compliance upgrades.

UHE1C822MHD (Nichicon):

This part is a parametric equivalent from an alternative manufacturer. All critical electrical parameters match the main part specification. The component maintains identical mechanical dimensions and lead spacing for direct board-level substitution. However, the product status is listed as "Not For New Designs," indicating this part is in end-of-life phase. The ripple current at 120 Hz is 3.376 A compared to 3.587 A in the main part, representing a 5.9% reduction. REACH status is listed as "Affected," requiring compliance verification for specific applications. This part is suitable for legacy system maintenance and repair applications where inventory is available (8099 pieces).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EKY-160ELL822MMP1S be used as a direct replacement for KY16VB822M18X35LL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (8200 µF, 16 V, ±20%, 10000 Hrs @ 105°C) and mechanical dimensions (0.709" diameter, 0.295" lead spacing, through-hole radial can package). The height difference of 0.059" (1.50mm) is within standard board clearance tolerances. The EKY-160ELL822MMP1S is the recommended upgrade due to ROHS3 compliance.

Q: What is the significance of the height difference between KY16VB822M18X35LL (1.398") and EKY-160ELL822MMP1S (1.457")?

A: The 0.059" (1.50mm) height increase does not affect electrical performance. Physical board clearance must be verified during layout review. If clearance is constrained, UHE1C822MHD maintains the original 1.398" height.

Q: Why is UHE1C822MHD marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the part is in end-of-life phase. It remains suitable for maintenance, repair, and legacy system applications where component continuity is required. New designs should prioritize EKY-160ELL822MMP1S.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the three parts?

A: Yes. KY16VB822M18X35LL is RoHS non-compliant. EKY-160ELL822MMP1S is ROHS3 compliant with REACH unaffected status. UHE1C822MHD is ROHS3 compliant but REACH affected. Compliance requirements must be verified against application and regional regulations.

Q: What is the ripple current difference between KY16VB822M18X35LL and UHE1C822MHD at 120 Hz?

A: KY16VB822M18X35LL is rated 3.587 A at 120 Hz. UHE1C822MHD is rated 3.376 A at 120 Hz, representing a 5.9% reduction. Both parts maintain identical 4.22 A ripple current at 100 kHz. The 120 Hz difference is acceptable for general-purpose applications but must be verified for designs with specific low-frequency ripple current requirements.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new product designs?

A: EKY-160ELL822MMP1S is the recommended selection for new designs. It maintains Active product status, achieves ROHS3 compliance, and is manufactured by the same supplier as the original part with identical electrical performance.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes, with physical clearance verification. All three parts share identical lead spacing (0.295" / 7.50mm) and diameter (0.709" / 18.00mm). Height variation must be confirmed against board layout constraints. Electrical performance is equivalent for general-purpose applications.
