Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELXY100ELL682ML35S (Chemi-Con LXY Series)

This substitute is the primary equivalent for the LXY10VB682M16X35LL. It maintains identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions within acceptable tolerances. The ELXY100ELL682ML35S is classified as Active, ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability. It carries ROHS3 compliance and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, representing an upgrade in regulatory compliance and quality assurance. The height difference of 0.059" (1.50 mm) is within typical PCB layout margins. This part is recommended for applications requiring direct replacement with improved compliance status.

UPW1A682MHD (Nichicon UPW Series)

This substitute provides electrical equivalence with improved performance characteristics. The UPW1A682MHD delivers higher ripple current ratings (2.559 A @ 120 Hz and 3.01 A @ 100 kHz) and lower impedance (18 mOhms), making it suitable for applications with elevated ripple current demands. The reduced height of 1.240" (31.50 mm) provides additional PCB layout flexibility. However, the product status is classified as Not For New Designs, limiting its use to legacy system support and existing inventory applications. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed. This part is recommended for applications where improved ripple current performance is beneficial and where product lifecycle status is not a constraint.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELXY100ELL682ML35S be used as a direct replacement for LXY10VB682M16X35LL?

A: Yes. The ELXY100ELL682ML35S meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. Capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, lifetime, operating temperature range, lead spacing, and case diameter are identical. The height difference of 1.50 mm is within standard PCB layout tolerances. Verify PCB clearance before installation.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: ELXY100ELL682ML35S is manufactured by Chemi-Con and maintains the same series lineage as the original part. UPW1A682MHD is manufactured by Nichicon and offers superior ripple current performance and lower impedance. Both meet electrical equivalence requirements. Selection depends on application ripple current demands and product lifecycle requirements.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the original part and substitutes?

A: Yes. The original LXY10VB682M16X35LL is RoHS non-compliant. Both substitutes (ELXY100ELL682ML35S and UPW1A682MHD) are ROHS3 compliant. Additionally, ELXY100ELL682ML35S carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. For applications requiring regulatory compliance, the substitutes provide upgraded certification status.

Q: Does the height difference affect PCB compatibility?

A: Height variations exist among the three parts: LXY10VB682M16X35LL (35.00 mm), ELXY100ELL682ML35S (36.50 mm), and UPW1A682MHD (31.50 mm). Verify PCB layout clearance, component spacing, and any height-constrained mounting requirements before selection. The UPW1A682MHD offers the lowest profile option.

Q: What is the significance of Product Status classifications?

A: LXY10VB682M16X35LL is Obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing. ELXY100ELL682ML35S is Active, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. UPW1A682MHD is Not For New Designs, suitable for legacy system support but not recommended for new product development. For new designs, ELXY100ELL682ML35S is the preferred choice.

Q: Can ripple current differences affect circuit performance?

A: Ripple current specifications indicate the maximum AC current the capacitor can handle at specified frequencies. UPW1A682MHD provides higher ripple current ratings than the original part. If the original circuit operates within the specified ripple current limits, both substitutes are acceptable. If ripple current demands exceed the original specification, UPW1A682MHD offers improved performance margin.

Q: What does impedance variation mean for circuit operation?

A: Impedance affects high-frequency performance and voltage ripple characteristics. Lower impedance (UPW1A682MHD at 18 mOhms) provides better high-frequency filtering compared to higher impedance (LXY10VB682M16X35LL and ELXY100ELL682ML35S at 22 mOhms). For applications sensitive to high-frequency noise, the lower impedance substitute may provide performance benefits.
