Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SLPX272M100C4P3 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Requirements:

• Capacitance value: 2700 µF (exact match)
• Voltage rating: 100 V (exact match)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C (exact match)
• Lifetime specification: 3000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match)

Mechanical Equivalence Requirements:

• Lead spacing: 0.394" (10.00mm) (exact match)
• Package type: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match)

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant status
• REACH Unaffected status

The substitute part 380LX272M100J452 meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Minor variations in ESR (104 mOhm vs. 98 mOhm) and physical height (1.850" vs. 1.772") remain within acceptable tolerance bands for this component category and do not preclude functional substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

SLPX272M100C4P3 (Primary Part): Select this part when the original design specification calls for the SLPX series and when ESR performance at 98 mOhm @ 120Hz is a critical design parameter. This part maintains Active product status with 966 units in stock.

380LX272M100J452 (Substitute Part): This part is a direct functional equivalent suitable for applications where the SLPX272M100C4P3 is unavailable. The 380LX series maintains identical electrical ratings and mechanical compatibility. The ESR specification of 104 mOhm @ 120Hz represents a 6.1% increase from the primary part but remains within acceptable operational parameters for general-purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor applications. The physical height difference of 0.078" (2.00mm) must be verified against PCB layout constraints and enclosure clearances. Both parts carry ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected certifications, ensuring regulatory compliance. The 380LX272M100J452 is available in higher inventory (3446 units in stock).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 380LX272M100J452 be used as a direct replacement for the SLPX272M100C4P3?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (2700 µF), voltage rating (100 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), lifetime specification (3000 Hrs @ 85°C), lead spacing (10.00mm), and package type (Radial, Can - Snap-In). Both are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are ESR (98 mOhm vs. 104 mOhm @ 120Hz), physical height (1.772" vs. 1.850"), ripple current specifications at high frequency (4.58 A vs. 4.3 A @ 20 kHz), and series designation (SLPX vs. 380LX). These differences do not affect functional interchangeability for general-purpose applications.

Q: Does the height difference of 0.078" affect PCB compatibility?

A: The 380LX272M100J452 is 0.078" (2.00mm) taller than the SLPX272M100C4P3. Verify that the target PCB layout and enclosure design accommodate this increased height before substitution.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C ~ 85°C with a rated lifetime of 3000 hours at 85°C.

Q: What is the significance of the ESR difference?

A: The ESR difference of 6 mOhm (98 mOhm vs. 104 mOhm @ 120Hz) represents a 6.1% increase. For general-purpose applications, this variation is within acceptable tolerance. Applications with strict ESR requirements should retain the SLPX272M100C4P3.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. Both parts are supplied in Bulk packaging as Radial, Can - Snap-In through-hole components with identical lead spacing of 0.394" (10.00mm).

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the SLPX272M100C4P3 and 380LX272M100J452 are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.
