Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SH101M063ST is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 100 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 63 V (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package Type: Radial, Can (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 5.00 mm (exact match required)
• Diameter: 10.00 mm (exact match required)

Compatible Variation Parameters:

• Height: Substitute parts may exceed the original 12.00 mm maximum, provided they fit within the application's physical constraints
• Lifetime @ 105°C: Substitute parts with equal or greater lifetime are acceptable
• Operating Temperature Range: Substitute parts with equal or wider range are acceptable
• Ripple Current: Substitute parts with equal or greater ripple current capability are acceptable
• ESR: Lower ESR values indicate improved performance characteristics

Two substitute parts meet these criteria and are listed below.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

EEU-FC1J101 (Panasonic Electronic Components)

The EEU-FC1J101 is an active product with extended lifetime (3000 hours at 105°C versus 2000 hours for the original part). This substitute offers improved ripple current handling (347.8 mA at 120 Hz) and wider operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C). The part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance. Physical dimensions are compatible with the original, with a maximum height of 12.50 mm compared to 12.00 mm. This substitute is suitable for applications requiring enhanced reliability and extended operational life.

UPW1J101MPD1TD (Nichicon)

The UPW1J101MPD1TD provides the longest rated lifetime at 5000 hours at 105°C, representing a 2.5× improvement over the original SH101M063ST. This substitute delivers superior ripple current performance (351 mA at 120 Hz) and operates across an extended temperature range (-55°C to 105°C). The part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Physical height reaches 14.00 mm maximum, requiring verification of available board space. Product status is classified as "Not For New Designs," limiting its application to replacement and maintenance scenarios.

Both substitutes maintain electrical equivalence through matching capacitance, tolerance, voltage rating, and lead spacing. Selection between them depends on product status requirements, available physical space, and lifetime expectations for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EEU-FC1J101 or UPW1J101MPD1TD be used as direct replacements for the SH101M063ST?

A: Both parts are electrically equivalent across all critical parameters: 100 µF capacitance, ±20% tolerance, 63 V rating, 5.00 mm lead spacing, and 10.00 mm diameter. Both are through-hole radial can packages with ROHS3 compliance. Physical height differences (12.50 mm and 14.00 mm respectively versus 12.00 mm original) must be accommodated within the application's available space.

Q: What is the primary advantage of the EEU-FC1J101 over the original SH101M063ST?

A: The EEU-FC1J101 is an active product with 50% extended lifetime (3000 hours at 105°C), improved ripple current capability, and wider operating temperature range. AEC-Q200 automotive qualification provides additional reliability assurance.

Q: What is the primary advantage of the UPW1J101MPD1TD?

A: The UPW1J101MPD1TD offers the longest rated lifetime at 5000 hours at 105°C, representing a 2.5× improvement over the original part. This extended lifetime is beneficial for applications requiring maximum operational durability.

Q: Why is the UPW1J101MPD1TD marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This product status designation indicates the part is available for replacement and maintenance applications but is not recommended for new product development. The EEU-FC1J101, with active product status, is preferred for new designs.

Q: Are there physical space constraints when substituting these parts?

A: Yes. The EEU-FC1J101 has a maximum height of 12.50 mm (0.50 mm taller than original), and the UPW1J101MPD1TD reaches 14.00 mm (2.00 mm taller). Applications with tight vertical clearance must accommodate these dimensional differences.

Q: Do all three parts share identical lead spacing and diameter?

A: Yes. All three parts maintain 5.00 mm lead spacing and 10.00 mm diameter, ensuring compatibility with existing through-hole PCB layouts.

Q: What is the difference in ripple current handling between these parts?

A: The SH101M063ST handles 260 mA at 120 Hz. The EEU-FC1J101 handles 347.8 mA at 120 Hz (34% improvement). The UPW1J101MPD1TD handles 351 mA at 120 Hz (35% improvement). Higher ripple current capability indicates better performance under AC stress conditions.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant. The EEU-FC1J101 and UPW1J101MPD1TD are also REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for each part?

A: The SH101M063ST operates from -40°C to 105°C. Both the EEU-FC1J101 and UPW1J101MPD1TD operate from -55°C to 105°C, providing 15°C additional low-temperature capability.
