Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MLP152M080EK0D is permissible only when the replacement part maintains identical values across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitution logic is based strictly on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Capacitance: 1500 µF
• Rated Voltage: 80 V
• Tolerance: ±20%
• ESR @ 120 Hz: 106 mOhm
• Lifetime @ 85°C: 2000 Hrs
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 85°C
• Ripple Current @ 120 Hz: 3.6 A
• Ripple Current @ 20 kHz: 4.2 A

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match Exactly):

• Lead Spacing: 1.000 inch (25.40 mm)
• Physical Dimensions: 1.500 inch L × 1.750 inch W (38.10 × 44.45 mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.500 inch (12.70 mm)
• Package Type: FlatPack, Tabbed
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
• Polarization: Polar

The MLP152M080EK1A is classified as a parametric equivalent because it satisfies all electrical and mechanical requirements without deviation.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the MLP152M080EK0D and MLP152M080EK1A are active production parts manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics. Selection between these parts should be based on availability and procurement lead time requirements.

MLP152M080EK0D is the primary specification with 1075 units currently in stock, providing immediate availability for production and prototyping applications.

MLP152M080EK1A is the direct parametric equivalent with 876 units in stock, suitable for use when the primary part is unavailable or when supply chain optimization requires alternative sourcing from the same manufacturer.

Both parts carry identical compliance designations: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, and ECCN EAR99 classification. No electrical performance, thermal behavior, or mechanical fit differences exist between these parts. Selection is a matter of inventory availability and supply chain logistics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MLP152M080EK1A be used as a direct replacement for MLP152M080EK0D in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MLP152M080EK1A is a parametric equivalent with identical capacitance (1500 µF), voltage rating (80 V), ESR (106 mOhm @ 120 Hz), ripple current specifications, physical dimensions, lead spacing, and mounting configuration. No circuit redesign or PCB layout modification is required.

Q: Are there any differences in thermal performance between these parts?

A: No. Both parts have identical lifetime specifications (2000 Hrs @ 85°C) and operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 85°C). Thermal behavior and capacitance retention characteristics are equivalent.

Q: Do these parts have different compliance or regulatory status?

A: No. Both MLP152M080EK0D and MLP152M080EK1A share identical compliance designations: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, ECCN EAR99, and HTSUS 8532.22.0055. Regulatory and environmental documentation requirements are the same.

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers MLP152M080EK0D and MLP152M080EK1A?

A: The part numbers differ only in the suffix characters (0D versus 1A). This variation typically indicates different manufacturing batches or internal revision levels within the same product specification. All electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Can these capacitors be used in high-frequency applications?

A: These capacitors are rated for ripple current operation at both low frequency (3.6 A @ 120 Hz) and high frequency (4.2 A @ 20 kHz). The ESR specification of 106 mOhm @ 120 Hz indicates suitability for general purpose applications within the specified frequency and current ranges.

Q: What is the significance of the FlatPack, Tabbed package designation?

A: FlatPack indicates a compact, low-profile form factor. Tabbed refers to the terminal configuration, which uses solder tabs for chassis mount connection. This package type is designed for applications requiring space-efficient mounting on circuit boards or chassis with direct solder attachment.

Q: Are these parts moisture sensitive?

A: No. Both parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard storage and handling procedures apply without special desiccant or humidity control requirements.
