Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MLP272M100EB1C is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 2700 µF (exact match required)
  • Voltage rating: 100 V (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 85°C (exact match required)
  • Lifetime rating: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)

Mechanical Parameters:

  • Package type: FlatPack (exact match required)
  • Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
  • Lead spacing: 1.000" / 25.40 mm (exact match required)
  • Physical dimensions: 3.000" L x 1.750" W (exact match required)
  • Height seated (max): 0.500" (exact match required)

Performance Parameters:

  • Ripple current @ 120 Hz: 7.4 A (exact match required)
  • Ripple current @ 20 kHz: 8.7 A (exact match required)
  • ESR @ 120 Hz: within acceptable range for aluminum electrolytic capacitors of this class

Substitute parts must maintain all specified parameters. Minor variations in ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) within the aluminum electrolytic capacitor classification are acceptable when all other parameters remain equivalent.
