Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the SLP102M160E5P3 is determined by strict adherence to the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Capacitance value must equal 1000 µF
• Rated voltage must be 160 V or higher
• Tolerance must be ±20% or tighter
• Lifetime rating must be 3000 hours at 105°C or greater
• Operating temperature range must encompass -25°C to 105°C or provide equivalent coverage

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Lead spacing must equal 0.394" (10.00 mm)
• Diameter must equal 1.181" (30.00 mm)
• Height must not exceed 1.378" (35.00 mm)
• Package type must be Radial, Can - Snap-In
• Mounting type must be Through Hole

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant status required
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1 (Unlimited) acceptable

The substitute part 381LX102M200K032 meets all substitution criteria through matching capacitance, tolerance, lead spacing, diameter, package type, and mounting configuration, while providing upgraded voltage rating and expanded operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 381LX102M200K032 is a direct substitute for the SLP102M160E5P3 based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: Both parts maintain identical capacitance (1000 µF) and tolerance (±20%), ensuring equivalent circuit performance. The substitute's higher rated voltage (200 V versus 160 V) provides additional safety margin in the application without degrading performance. Both parts deliver 3000-hour lifetime at 105°C, meeting reliability requirements.

Mechanical Compatibility: Lead spacing, diameter, and package type are identical between both parts. The substitute's maximum seated height of 1.457" (37.00 mm) exceeds the main part's 1.378" (35.00 mm) by 0.079". This height difference must be evaluated against available PCB clearance in the target application.

Compliance and Availability: Both parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status and MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, meeting regulatory requirements. The substitute part shows higher inventory availability (1143 pieces versus 785 pieces), supporting supply chain continuity.

Temperature Range Consideration: The substitute extends the operating temperature range to -40°C to 105°C, compared to the main part's -25°C to 105°C. This expanded range provides additional operational flexibility for applications requiring lower-temperature performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 381LX102M200K032 be used as a direct replacement for the SLP102M160E5P3?

A: Yes, the 381LX102M200K032 is electrically and mechanically compatible as a substitute. Both parts share identical capacitance (1000 µF), tolerance (±20%), lead spacing (10.00 mm), diameter (30.00 mm), and package configuration (Radial, Can - Snap-In). The substitute's higher voltage rating (200 V) and extended temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) provide performance enhancements. The only consideration is the substitute's increased height (37.00 mm versus 35.00 mm), which must be verified against available PCB clearance.

Q: What is the significance of the voltage rating difference between 160 V and 200 V?

A: The substitute part's 200 V rating is higher than the main part's 160 V rating. In circuit applications, a higher voltage-rated capacitor can be used in place of a lower voltage-rated capacitor without performance degradation. The higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin and stress relief for the component during operation.

Q: Are there any mechanical constraints when substituting the 381LX102M200K032?

A: The substitute part is 0.079" (2.00 mm) taller than the main part (37.00 mm versus 35.00 mm). This height difference must be evaluated against the available vertical clearance on the PCB and within the enclosure. If clearance is limited, the height difference may prevent installation. All other mechanical parameters, including lead spacing and diameter, are identical.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the SLP102M160E5P3 and 381LX102M200K032 are ROHS3 Compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating. Both parts are classified as REACH Unaffected and carry ECCN EAR99 designation, meeting regulatory requirements for equivalent applications.

Q: What is the difference in operating temperature range?

A: The main part operates from -25°C to 105°C, while the substitute operates from -40°C to 105°C. The substitute's extended low-temperature range (-40°C versus -25°C) allows operation in colder environments. Both parts maintain the same upper temperature limit of 105°C and deliver identical 3000-hour lifetime at this temperature.

Q: Is ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) a factor in substitution?

A: The main part specifies 199 mOhm ESR. The substitute part does not provide an ESR specification in the available data. For applications where ESR is a critical parameter (such as high-frequency ripple current filtering), the absence of specified ESR data for the substitute should be evaluated against application requirements. Both parts are rated for identical ripple current performance at 120 Hz (2.2 A) and 20 kHz (3.1 A).

Q: Can the substitute be used if the application requires operation below -25°C?

A: Yes. The substitute's extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C allows operation at temperatures as low as -40°C, compared to the main part's -25°C minimum. If the application requires operation below -25°C, the 381LX102M200K032 is the appropriate choice.
