Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELXY500ELL820MJC5S (Chemi-Con LXY Series): This substitute is suitable for applications requiring extended operational lifetime. The part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and is classified as Active product status, making it appropriate for new designs. The increased height of 0.551" (14.00mm) versus the original 0.531" (14.60mm) requires PCB layout verification to ensure clearance in confined spaces. All electrical parameters match the original specification.

UPJ1H820MPD6 (Nichicon UPJ Series): This substitute meets all electrical and mechanical requirements with identical capacitance, voltage, and tolerance specifications. However, the product status is classified as Not For New Designs. This part is suitable only for replacement or maintenance applications where the original MAL213661829E3 is unavailable. The increased height of 0.551" (14.00mm) and impedance of 230 mOhms (versus 200 mOhms in the original) require design verification. Use of this part in new designs is not recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELXY500ELL820MJC5S and UPJ1H820MPD6 be used interchangeably with MAL213661829E3?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically compatible based on capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, package type, and lead spacing. However, the increased seated height of 0.551" (14.00mm) compared to the original 0.531" (14.60mm) requires PCB layout verification. For new designs, ELXY500ELL820MJC5S is recommended due to Active product status.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on UPJ1H820MPD6?

A: This designation indicates that Nichicon has discontinued this part for new product development. While the part remains functionally compatible, it should be used only for replacement or maintenance of existing equipment. For new designs, select ELXY500ELL820MJC5S or continue using MAL213661829E3 if available.

Q: Are there height clearance concerns when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts have a maximum seated height of 0.551" (14.00mm), which is 0.020" (0.50mm) taller than the original MAL213661829E3 at 0.531" (14.60mm). Verify PCB layout and component placement to ensure adequate clearance before substitution.

Q: Do all three parts meet RoHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. MAL213661829E3, ELXY500ELL820MJC5S, and UPJ1H820MPD6 are all ROHS3 Compliant.

Q: What is the difference in impedance between these parts?

A: MAL213661829E3 and ELXY500ELL820MJC5S both have 200 mOhms impedance. UPJ1H820MPD6 has 230 mOhms impedance. This difference may affect ripple current performance in high-frequency applications and should be evaluated against circuit requirements.

Q: Which substitute offers the longest operational lifetime?

A: Both ELXY500ELL820MJC5S and UPJ1H820MPD6 offer 5000 hours at 105°C, compared to 4000 hours for the original MAL213661829E3. This represents a 25% increase in rated lifetime.
