LP221M200E1P3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LP221M200E1P3 is a 220 µF, 200 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) in the LP series. This radial, can-style snap-in capacitor is designed for general-purpose applications requiring polar electrolytic capacitance in through-hole configurations. The part is Active status and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align within the allowed specifications for this capacitor category, enabling direct replacement in circuit designs where the primary electrical characteristics remain constant.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LP221M200E1P3 is determined by strict equivalence in the following core electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Capacitance value: 220 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 200 V (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package style: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.394" (10.00mm) (exact match required)

Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

The substitute part 381LX221M200H012 meets all core electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Variations in ESR, ripple current ratings, physical dimensions (diameter and height), and lifetime specifications do not preclude substitution when the primary electrical characteristics and mechanical interface requirements are identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both LP221M200E1P3 and 381LX221M200H012 are Active status products manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics and hold ROHS3 compliance certification. Selection between these parts is based on application-specific requirements beyond core electrical equivalence:

LP221M200E1P3 Selection Criteria:

• Applications with space constraints requiring the larger diameter (30.00mm) and shorter height (25.00mm) profile
• Circuits where the specified ESR of 1.1 Ohm @ 120Hz is a design requirement
• Applications with 1000-hour lifetime requirement at 105°C

381LX221M200H012 Selection Criteria:

• Applications requiring extended operational lifetime (3000 hours @ 105°C)
• Circuits with higher ripple current demands (1 A @ 120 Hz, 1.4 A @ 20 kHz)
• Applications where the smaller diameter (22.00mm) and slightly taller height (27.00mm) profile accommodates board layout constraints

Both parts maintain identical electrical characteristics (220 µF, ±20%, 200 V, polar, through-hole, snap-in package, 10.00mm lead spacing) and regulatory compliance status, enabling direct substitution based on mechanical fit and performance envelope requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 381LX221M200H012 directly replace LP221M200E1P3 in existing circuit boards?

A: Direct replacement is possible if the physical dimensions are compatible with the PCB layout. The 381LX221M200H012 has a smaller diameter (22.00mm vs. 30.00mm) but slightly greater height (27.00mm vs. 25.00mm). Verify that the snap-in mounting footprint and vertical clearance accommodate the substitute part before installation.

Q: Are the electrical characteristics identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts provide 220 µF capacitance at ±20% tolerance, 200 V rated voltage, polar configuration, and operate across -40°C to 105°C. The core electrical parameters required for circuit function are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference in ripple current handling?

A: The 381LX221M200H012 has higher ripple current ratings (1 A @ 120 Hz and 1.4 A @ 20 kHz) compared to the LP221M200E1P3 (646 mA @ 120 Hz and 904.4 mA @ 100 kHz). Applications requiring higher ripple current dissipation should use the 381LX series.

Q: Why does the 381LX221M200H012 have a longer lifetime specification?

A: The 381LX221M200H012 is rated for 3000 hours at 105°C versus 1000 hours for the LP221M200E1P3. This represents a different product line within CDE's portfolio with enhanced thermal endurance characteristics. Selection depends on application longevity requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both LP221M200E1P3 and 381LX221M200H012 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: What is the lead spacing for both parts?

A: Both parts have identical lead spacing of 0.394 inches (10.00mm), ensuring compatibility with standard through-hole PCB footprints designed for snap-in aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
