• Voltage Rating: 6.3 V
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Lifetime: 2000 Hrs @ 105°C
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C
• Ripple Current @ 120 Hz: 70 mA
• Ripple Current @ 100 kHz: 175 mA
• Impedance: 500 mOhms

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Lead Spacing: 0.079" (2.00 mm)
• Size / Dimension: 0.197" Dia (5.00 mm)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Package / Case: Radial, Can

The ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Differences in height dimension and product certifications do not affect functional substitution in applications where the original part is used.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the LXZ6.3VB151M5X11LL. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following factors:

Product Status: The original part LXZ6.3VB151M5X11LL is obsolete. The ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D maintains active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

Compliance Certifications: The ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D is ROHS3 compliant and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The original part is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or automotive standards, the substitute part provides enhanced compliance.

Physical Dimensions: The substitute part has a maximum seated height of 0.512" (13.00 mm) compared to 0.453" (11.50 mm) for the original part. This 0.059" (1.50 mm) height difference must be evaluated against available PCB clearance in the target application.

Electrical Equivalence: All electrical parameters, including capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, lifetime, operating temperature range, ripple current specifications, and impedance are identical between the two parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D be used as a direct replacement for the LXZ6.3VB151M5X11LL?

A: Yes, the ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D is electrically and mechanically equivalent. Both parts share identical capacitance (150 µF), voltage rating (6.3 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (2000 Hrs @ 105°C), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), ripple current specifications, impedance, lead spacing (0.079" / 2.00 mm), diameter (0.197" / 5.00 mm), and mounting type (Through Hole, Radial Can). The substitute part is suitable for direct PCB replacement provided the increased height (0.512" vs 0.453") does not conflict with available clearance.

Q: What is the height difference between these two parts?

A: The LXZ6.3VB151M5X11LL has a maximum seated height of 0.453" (11.50 mm). The ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D has a maximum seated height of 0.512" (13.00 mm). This represents a 0.059" (1.50 mm) increase in height. Verify that the PCB layout and enclosure design accommodate this additional height before substitution.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The LXZ6.3VB151M5X11LL is RoHS non-compliant. The ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D is ROHS3 compliant and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. If the application is subject to RoHS regulations or requires automotive-grade components, the substitute part meets these requirements.

Q: Do both parts have the same ripple current ratings?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 70 mA ripple current at 120 Hz and 175 mA ripple current at 100 kHz. Ripple current handling capacity is identical.

Q: What is the lead spacing for these capacitors?

A: Both parts have a lead spacing of 0.079" (2.00 mm), which is the standard spacing for radial through-hole capacitors in this size class. PCB footprints designed for the original part are compatible with the substitute part.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both the LXZ6.3VB151M5X11LL and ELXZ6R3ELL151MEB5D are manufactured by Chemi-Con and belong to the LXZ series of aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these capacitors?

A: Both parts operate across the temperature range of -55°C to 105°C. The lifetime specification of 2000 hours applies at the maximum operating temperature of 105°C.
