Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Capacitance: 33 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 10 V minimum (equal or higher voltage rating acceptable)
• Tolerance: ±20% (standard tolerance for aluminum electrolytic capacitors)
• Polarization: Bi-Polar
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: Radial, Can - SMD
• Physical Dimensions: 0.248" Dia (6.30mm) with compatible height and land size

Substitution Categories:

Parametric Equivalent: BMVK100ARA330MF60G matches all electrical and mechanical parameters of the main part while maintaining identical series designation (Alchip™ MVK-BP). This part is functionally interchangeable with identical capacitance, voltage, tolerance, temperature rating, and physical footprint.

Upgrade Substitutes: UUP1A330MCL1GS and UUP1C330MCL1GS are Nichicon UUP series components that provide enhanced performance characteristics. UUP1A330MCL1GS maintains the 10 V rating with improved ripple current handling and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C). UUP1C330MCL1GS offers a higher 16 V voltage rating with the same 33 µF capacitance, providing additional design margin and improved ripple current performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Obsolete Part Continuation):

BMVK100ARA330MF60G is the parametric equivalent within the same Chemi-Con Alchip™ MVK-BP series. This part provides identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP. Selection of BMVK100ARA330MF60G is appropriate when exact form-fit-function replacement is required and RoHS compliance is a requirement. The part achieves RoHS Compliant status while maintaining all original performance parameters.

For Enhanced Performance and Long-Term Availability:

UUP1A330MCL1GS (Nichicon UUP series, 10 V rating) is recommended for applications requiring extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C versus -40°C ~ 105°C) and improved ripple current handling (41 mA @ 120 Hz, 61.5 mA @ 10 kHz). This part is Active status, ensuring long-term availability. The increased height (0.240" versus 0.224") must be evaluated for PCB clearance compatibility. ROHS3 Compliant status supports modern regulatory requirements.

For Design Margin and Voltage Headroom:

UUP1C330MCL1GS (Nichicon UUP series, 16 V rating) provides the same 33 µF capacitance with elevated voltage rating (16 V versus 10 V). This configuration offers additional design margin in applications where voltage transients or supply variations may occur. Enhanced ripple current performance (49 mA @ 120 Hz, 73.5 mA @ 10 kHz) supports higher current applications. Active product status and ROHS3 Compliant certification ensure regulatory compliance and supply continuity.

Compliance Considerations:

The original MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP is RoHS non-compliant. Both BMVK100ARA330MF60G and the Nichicon UUP series alternatives achieve RoHS compliance, supporting transition to compliant supply chains where required by customer specifications or regulatory mandates.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can BMVK100ARA330MF60G be used as a direct replacement for MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP?

A: Yes. BMVK100ARA330MF60G is a parametric equivalent with identical capacitance (33 µF), voltage rating (10 V), tolerance (±20%), temperature rating (1000 Hrs @ 105°C), physical dimensions (0.248" Dia, 0.224" height), and land size (0.260" x 0.260"). Both parts are Chemi-Con Alchip™ MVK-BP series components. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the height difference between the main part and Nichicon UUP substitutes?

A: The MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP has a maximum seated height of 0.224" (5.70mm). The Nichicon UUP1A330MCL1GS and UUP1C330MCL1GS have a maximum seated height of 0.240" (6.10mm), representing a 0.016" (0.40mm) increase. PCB layout and component clearance must be evaluated to confirm compatibility with this dimensional change.

Q: Can UUP1C330MCL1GS (16 V) be used in place of the 10 V rated MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP?

A: Yes. UUP1C330MCL1GS maintains the same 33 µF capacitance and ±20% tolerance. The 16 V voltage rating is higher than the 10 V requirement, providing additional design margin. All other parameters (capacitance, tolerance, temperature rating, physical footprint, land size) are compatible. The higher voltage rating does not create incompatibility in circuits designed for 10 V operation.

Q: What are the ripple current differences between these parts?

A: The MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP is rated for 35 mA @ 120 Hz. UUP1A330MCL1GS provides 41 mA @ 120 Hz and 61.5 mA @ 10 kHz. UUP1C330MCL1GS provides 49 mA @ 120 Hz and 73.5 mA @ 10 kHz. Higher ripple current ratings indicate improved performance in high-frequency switching applications. Selection depends on actual circuit ripple current requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: BMVK100ARA330MF60G is RoHS Compliant. UUP1A330MCL1GS and UUP1C330MCL1GS are ROHS3 Compliant. The original MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP is RoHS non-compliant. Selection of compliant alternatives supports regulatory requirements in jurisdictions with RoHS mandates.

Q: What is the difference between Parametric Equivalent and Upgrade Substitute classifications?

A: Parametric Equivalent (BMVK100ARA330MF60G) provides identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the same manufacturer series. Upgrade Substitutes (Nichicon UUP series) offer enhanced performance characteristics such as extended temperature range, improved ripple current handling, or higher voltage ratings, while maintaining core functional compatibility.

Q: Are the surface mount land sizes identical across all parts?

A: Yes. All parts (MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP, BMVK100ARA330MF60G, UUP1A330MCL1GS, and UUP1C330MCL1GS) share identical surface mount land size of 0.260" L x 0.260" W (6.60mm x 6.60mm). PCB footprints are compatible without modification.

Q: What is the operating temperature range difference?

A: MVKBP10VC33RMF60TP and BMVK100ARA330MF60G operate from -40°C to 105°C. UUP1A330MCL1GS and UUP1C330MCL1GS operate from -55°C to 105°C, providing 15°C additional low-temperature capability. Selection depends on application environmental requirements.
