Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can EMVE160ARA221MF80G be used as a direct replacement for MVE16VC221MF80TP?
A: Yes. EMVE160ARA221MF80G is a direct parametric equivalent with identical capacitance (220 µF), voltage rating (16 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (1000 Hrs @ 105°C), ripple current (120 mA @ 120 Hz), and mechanical dimensions (6.30 mm diameter, 7.70 mm height, 6.60 x 6.60 mm land size). The part is active and ROHS3 compliant, eliminating obsolescence concerns.
Q: What is the difference between "Direct Equivalent" and "Upgrade" substitute parts?
A: Direct Equivalent parts maintain all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original component. Upgrade parts provide enhanced performance characteristics such as extended lifetime (2000 or 3000 hours versus 1000 hours), higher ripple current ratings, or automotive qualification (AEC-Q200), while maintaining the same capacitance, voltage, and tolerance. Upgrade parts may have slightly increased height (up to 8.00 mm versus 7.70 mm original).
Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?
A: Yes. All substitute parts listed are ROHS3 compliant. The original MVE16VC221MF80TP is RoHS non-compliant. Substitution with any listed part provides RoHS3 compliance upgrade
