Tolerance: ±20%
Polarization: Polar
Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C minimum
Mounting Type: Surface Mount
Package / Case: Radial, Can - SMD
Physical Dimensions: 0.157" Dia (4.00mm), compatible height and land size

Acceptable Variation Parameters:

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Parametric Equivalent - Direct Replacement:

EMVY6R3ARA220MD55G (Chemi-Con) is the primary equivalent substitute. This part maintains identical electrical specifications (22 µF, 6.3 V, ±20%, 1000 Hrs @ 105°C, 60 mA @ 100 kHz, 3 Ohms impedance) and physical dimensions (0.205" height) as the original MVY6.3VC22RMD55TP. The critical advantage is Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, eliminating obsolescence risk. This part is available in Tape & Reel packaging with 651 units in stock.

Direct Equivalents - Same Voltage Rating:

AVEZ226M06B12T-F (Cornell Dubilier Electronics) provides direct equivalence with enhanced ripple current capability (65 mA @ 100 kHz versus 60 mA). Physical height increases to 0.217" (5.50mm), requiring PCB layout verification. ROHS3 compliant and Active status. 809 units in stock.

6.3SKV22M4X5.5 (Rubycon) offers Last Time Buy status with ROHS3 compliance. Height increases to 0.217" (5.50mm). Ripple current specification differs (34.5 mA @ 10 kHz). High inventory availability (5031 units) supports production continuity during transition periods.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EMVY6R3ARA220MD55G directly replace MVY6.3VC22RMD55TP without PCB modification?

A: Yes. EMVY6R3ARA220MD55G maintains identical capacitance (22 µF), voltage rating (6.3 V), tolerance (±20%), lifetime (1000 Hrs @ 105°C), ripple current (60 mA @ 100 kHz), impedance (3 Ohms), and physical dimensions (0.157" diameter, 0.205" height, 0.169" x 0.169" land size). No PCB layout changes are required.

Q: Why do some substitute parts have greater height (0.217" or 0.222" versus 0.205")?

A: Height variation results from different internal construction and performance characteristics. Parts with increased height (6.3SKV22M4X5.5, AVES226M06B12T-F, AVEZ226M06B12T-F) maintain the same 0.157" diameter and land size but require PCB clearance verification. KEMET EEV series parts (0.222" height) provide enhanced performance (doubled lifetime, lower impedance, higher ripple current) in a slightly taller package.

Q: What is the difference between EEV226M6R3A9BAA and EEV226M6R3S9BAA?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical (22 µF, 6.3 V, 2000 Hrs @ 105°C, 1.93 Ohms impedance, 90 mA @ 100 kHz). The "S9BAA" variant includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and is suitable for automotive applications. The "A9BAA" variant is for general-purpose applications. Select based on application requirements.

Q: Can I use a 10 V or 16 V rated capacitor in place of the 6.3 V original?

A: Yes. Higher voltage-rated capacitors (EEV226M010A9BAA at 10 V or EEV226M016A9BAA at 16 V) are electrically compatible in circuits designed for 6.3 V operation. The higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin and typically offers improved performance characteristics (lower impedance, higher ripple current, extended lifetime). Physical dimensions increase slightly (0.222" height), requiring PCB clearance verification.

Q: What is the significance of ROHS3 compliance?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates the part meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive requirements, restricting lead, cadmium, mercury, and other hazardous materials. The original MVY6.3VC22RMD55TP is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended substitutes are ROHS3 compliant, supporting regulatory compliance for new designs and manufacturing processes.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Most recommended substitutes are available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging for automated assembly. AVEZ226M06B12T-F is available in standard packaging (not specified as TR). Verify packaging availability with your supplier for production requirements.

Q: What inventory levels support production continuity?

A: EMVY6R3ARA220MD55G (651 units), AVES226M06B12T-F (776 units), AVEZ226M06B12T-F (809 units), and KEMET EEV series parts (ranging from 688 to 1154 units) provide adequate stock for immediate production needs. 6.3SKV22M4X5.5 (5031 units) offers the highest inventory availability.
