Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LPX271M200A1P3 are classified based on strict electrical and mechanical compatibility. All substitute parts maintain the following critical parameters identical to the main part:

• Capacitance: 270 µF
• Voltage Rating: 200 V
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Polarization: Polar
• Lead Spacing: 10.00 mm (0.394")
• Diameter: 22.00 mm (0.866")
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package Type: Radial, Can - Snap-In
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C (or extended to 105°C for upgrade options)
• RoHS3 Compliance: All parts maintain ROHS3 Compliant status
• REACH Status: All parts maintain REACH Unaffected status

Substitution categories are determined by variations in ESR, ripple current ratings, lifetime specifications, and height dimensions. Parts are grouped as direct equivalents (identical series performance), similar alternatives (different series with comparable electrical performance), and upgrades (enhanced thermal or lifetime performance).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SLPX271M200A1P3 (CDE): This part is a direct equivalent from the same manufacturer with identical electrical characteristics (737 mOhm ESR @ 120Hz) and mechanical dimensions (25.00 mm height). The primary advantage is extended lifetime of 3000 hours at 85°C compared to 1000 hours for the LPX271M200A1P3. This part maintains Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection is appropriate for applications requiring longer operational life without design modifications.

380LX271M200H012 (CDE): This CDE series part offers improved ESR performance at 610 mOhm @ 120Hz, representing a 17% reduction compared to the main part. Lifetime is extended to 3000 hours at 85°C. The height dimension increases to 27.00 mm, requiring verification of available PCB space. This part is suitable for applications where lower ESR and extended lifetime are beneficial and space constraints permit the additional 2.00 mm height.

LLS2D271MELZ (Nichicon): This Nichicon series part provides 3000-hour lifetime at 85°C with mechanical compatibility (25.00 mm height). ESR data is not specified in the provided parameters. Ripple current at 50 kHz is 2.055 A, exceeding the main part's 1.32 A. This part is suitable for cross-manufacturer substitution where Nichicon components are preferred and extended lifetime is required.

LGU2D271MELZ (Nichicon): This Nichicon upgrade part extends the operating temperature range to 105°C with 3000-hour lifetime at 105°C. Mechanical dimensions remain compatible (25.00 mm height). This part is classified as an upgrade option for applications requiring enhanced thermal performance or operation in elevated temperature environments. All compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected) are maintained.

All substitute parts maintain identical capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, polarization, lead spacing, diameter, mounting type, and package configuration. Selection among substitutes depends on specific application requirements for lifetime, ESR performance, thermal range, and available PCB space.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SLPX271M200A1P3 be used as a direct replacement for LPX271M200A1P3?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by CDE with identical capacitance (270 µF), voltage rating (200 V), tolerance (±20%), ESR (737 mOhm @ 120Hz), and mechanical dimensions (22.00 mm diameter, 25.00 mm height, 10.00 mm lead spacing). The SLPX series offers extended lifetime (3000 hours at 85°C versus 1000 hours), making it a compatible upgrade with no design modifications required.

Q: What is the impact of the 380LX271M200H012 height increase to 27.00 mm?

A: The 380LX271M200H012 is 2.00 mm taller than the LPX271M200A1P3 (27.00 mm versus 25.00 mm seated height). This dimension increase must be verified against available PCB clearance and enclosure space before selection. All other mechanical parameters (diameter, lead spacing) remain identical, allowing for pin-compatible mounting if vertical space is available.

Q: What are the differences between CDE and Nichicon substitute options?

A: CDE options (SLPX271M200A1P3, 380LX271M200H012) maintain the same manufacturer as the main part with specified ESR values. Nichicon options (LLS2D271MELZ, LGU2D271MELZ) provide cross-manufacturer substitution with extended lifetime specifications. The LGU2D271MELZ additionally extends the operating temperature range to 105°C. Selection depends on manufacturer preference, supply availability, and thermal requirements.

Q: Is the LGU2D271MELZ suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: The LGU2D271MELZ extends the operating temperature range to -40°C to 105°C with 3000-hour lifetime at 105°C, compared to the main part's -40°C to 85°C range with 1000-hour lifetime at 85°C. This part is classified as an upgrade option for applications requiring sustained operation at elevated temperatures. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain compatible with the LPX271M200A1P3.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed (SLPX271M200A1P3, 380LX271M200H012, LLS2D271MELZ, LGU2D271MELZ) maintain ROHS3 Compliant status and REACH Unaffected status, matching the compliance profile of the main part LPX271M200A1P3.

Q: What is the significance of ESR differences among substitute parts?

A: ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) affects ripple current handling and heat generation. The 380LX271M200H012 offers lower ESR at 610 mOhm @ 120Hz compared to the main part's 737 mOhm, resulting in improved ripple current performance (1.4 A @ 120 Hz versus 1.2 A). Nichicon parts (LLS2D271MELZ, LGU2D271MELZ) do not specify ESR values in the provided parameters. Lower ESR is beneficial in high-ripple-current applications.

Q: Can substitute parts be intermixed in the same circuit?

A: All substitute parts maintain identical capacitance (270 µF), voltage rating (200 V), tolerance (±20%), and mechanical compatibility (lead spacing, diameter, mounting type). They are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the specified parameters. However, differences in ESR, ripple current ratings, and lifetime specifications should be evaluated against specific circuit requirements before intermixing.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each part?

A: Inventory information provided: LPX271M200A1P3 (936 Pcs), SLPX271M200A1P3 (4093 Pcs), 380LX271M200H012 (2554 Pcs), LLS2D271MELZ (983 Pcs), LGU2D271MELZ (1783 Pcs). All parts are listed as New Original In Stock. Inventory levels should be verified with the supplier for current availability.
