TE1302.1 Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE1302.1 is a 4 µF, 50 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in axial configuration, manufactured by Vishay Sprague. This component is designed for general-purpose applications requiring polarized capacitive energy storage in through-hole mounting configurations. The part maintains an active product status with 2000 hours lifetime rating at 85°C operating temperature. Substitute parts are identified to address inventory availability, compliance requirements, or manufacturing continuity needs while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the TE1302.1 is based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 4 µF (exact match required)
• Rated voltage: 50 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance specification: -10%, +75% (exact match required)
• Lifetime rating: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
• Polarization type: Polar (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Axial, Can (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.248" Dia x 0.512" L / 6.30mm x 13.00mm (exact match required)

The identified substitute part TE1302.1-E3 meets all these criteria and is therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the main part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TE1302.1 and TE1302.1-E3 are functionally equivalent for circuit applications requiring 4 µF capacitance at 50 V with axial through-hole mounting. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory and compliance requirements:

The TE1302.1-E3 is ROHS3 compliant, making it the appropriate choice for applications subject to RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) regulations. The TE1302.1 is RoHS non-compliant and should be selected only when legacy compliance status is acceptable or required by design specifications.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, thermal ratings, and physical dimensions, ensuring direct interchangeability in circuit board layouts and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TE1302.1-E3 be used as a direct replacement for TE1302.1?

A: Yes. The TE1302.1-E3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the TE1302.1. All critical parameters including capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, lifetime rating, operating temperature range, and physical dimensions are identical. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status.

Q: What is the difference between TE1302.1 and TE1302.1-E3?

A: The TE1302.1-E3 is ROHS3 compliant, while the TE1302.1 is RoHS non-compliant. All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical dimensions of 0.248" diameter by 0.512" length (6.30mm x 13.00mm). They are fully compatible with the same PCB footprints and through-hole mounting patterns.

Q: Which part should I select for new designs?

A: Selection depends on regulatory requirements. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, specify TE1302.1-E3. For applications where RoHS compliance is not required, either part is acceptable based on availability and cost considerations.

Q: Do these parts have the same thermal performance?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for 2000 hours lifetime at 85°C and operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
