Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution eligibility for the LP562M025C3P3 is determined by strict adherence to the following criteria:
Mandatory Matching Parameters:
- Capacitance: 5600 µF (exact match required)
- Voltage Rating: 25 V (exact match required)
- Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
- Lifetime: 1000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
- Operating Temperature: -40°C to 105°C (exact match required)
- Lead Spacing: 10.00 mm (exact match required)
- Package Type: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
- Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
- RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
Allowable Variation Parameters:
- ESR @ 120 Hz: 89–90 mOhm (minor variation within performance envelope)
- Ripple Current: Variation acceptable within thermal design margins
- Physical Dimensions: Height and diameter may vary within mechanical envelope constraints
The LP562M025E1P3 qualifies as a substitute because it maintains all mandatory parameters while exhibiting minor variations in ESR (90 mOhm vs. 89 mOhm) and dimensional configuration (height and diameter transposed relative to the main part).

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Selection: LP562M025C3P3
The LP562M025C3P3 is the specified part for applications where the original dimensional envelope (25.00 mm diameter, 30.00 mm height) has been validated in PCB layout and mechanical design. This part maintains active production status with 946 units in current inventory.
Substitute Selection: LP562M025E1P3
The LP562M025E1P3 is electrically equivalent and functionally interchangeable where PCB mechanical constraints permit the alternative dimensional configuration (30.00 mm diameter, 25.00 mm height). Both parts are manufactured by the same supplier, share identical electrical specifications, and maintain equivalent regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99 classification).
Compliance Basis:
Both parts satisfy identical regulatory and certification requirements:
- ROHS3 Compliant
- REACH Unaffected
- EAR99 Export Classification
- HTSUS Code: 8532.22.0040
- Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
Critical Consideration:
The primary difference between these parts is the transposed physical dimensions. The LP562M025E1P3 exhibits a larger diameter (30.00 mm vs. 25.00 mm) and reduced height (25.00 mm vs. 30.00 mm). PCB layout verification is required to confirm that the alternative dimensional configuration does not create mechanical interference with adjacent components, traces, or enclosure constraints.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can LP562M025E1P3 be used as a direct replacement for LP562M025C3P3?
A: Electrical substitution is valid. Both parts have identical capacitance (5600 µF), voltage rating (25 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (1000 Hrs @ 105°C), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C). However, mechanical substitution requires verification that the alternative dimensions (30.00 mm diameter, 25.00 mm height) do not conflict with PCB layout, component spacing, or enclosure clearances.
Q: What is the significance of the ESR difference (89 mOhm vs. 90 mOhm)?
A: The 1 mOhm difference in Equivalent Series Resistance is negligible for general-purpose applications. Both values fall within acceptable performance parameters for the LP series. This minor variation does not affect functional compatibility or thermal performance in standard circuit designs.
Q: Are the ripple current ratings different between these parts?
A: Yes. The LP562M025E1P3 exhibits higher ripple current capacity at both 120 Hz (1.857 A vs. 1.73 A) and 100 kHz (2.0427 A vs. 1.903 A). This represents improved performance and does not create compatibility issues. The substitute part can handle equal or greater ripple current stress without degradation.
Q: Do both parts have the same lead spacing?
A: Yes. Both LP562M025C3P3 and LP562M025E1P3 have identical lead spacing of 10.00 mm (0.394 inches). PCB hole pattern compatibility is maintained between these parts.
Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?
A: The main part (LP562M025C3P3) is supplied in standard packaging, while the substitute (LP562M025E1P3) is supplied in bulk packaging. Both use identical Radial, Can - Snap-In package types with Through Hole mounting. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.
Q: Are regulatory certifications identical?
A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. Regulatory compliance is equivalent, and either part satisfies identical environmental and trade requirements.
Q: What is the primary reason to consider substitution?
A: Substitution is warranted when the original part (LP562M025C3P3) is unavailable or when inventory constraints require alternative sourcing. The LP562M025E1P3 provides equivalent electrical performance with the same manufacturer, series, and compliance certifications. Mechanical dimensional verification remains the only required validation step.
Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?
A: Electrical interchangeability is confirmed. Mechanical interchangeability depends on PCB design validation. If the original design accommodates the alternative dimensions (30.00 mm diameter, 25.00 mm height), direct substitution is permissible without circuit redesign. If dimensional constraints are tight, physical verification of clearances is required before implementation.
