Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE1504 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 5 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 150 V (exact match required)
• Capacitance tolerance: -10%, +50% (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 105°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime specification: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Axial, Can (exact match required)
• Mounting technology: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.315" Dia x 0.807" L / 8.00mm x 20.50mm (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

The substitute part TE1504-E3 meets all electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution with the primary distinction being enhanced regulatory compliance status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both TE1504 and TE1504-E3 are electrically and mechanically equivalent for circuit applications requiring 5 µF capacitance at 150 V with through-hole axial mounting. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory compliance requirements:

The TE1504-E3 is specified as ROHS3 compliant, making it the appropriate choice for applications subject to RoHS3 regulatory requirements or design standards mandating lead-free component construction. The original TE1504 is designated as RoHS non-compliant and should be selected only when legacy compliance status is acceptable or required by existing design specifications.

Both parts share identical electrical performance characteristics, temperature ratings, and physical form factors, ensuring direct substitution capability within the specified parameter envelope.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TE1504-E3 be used as a direct replacement for TE1504 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The TE1504-E3 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the TE1504. All critical parameters including capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature range, lifetime specification, and physical dimensions are identical. The primary difference is regulatory compliance status.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS3 compliance difference?

A: RoHS3 compliance indicates the TE1504-E3 meets current lead-free and hazardous substance restriction requirements. The TE1504 does not carry this certification. Selection depends on whether your application or regulatory environment requires RoHS3 compliance.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between TE1504 and TE1504-E3?

A: Yes. Both parts are specified at 0.315" diameter by 0.807" length (8.00mm x 20.50mm). They are compatible with identical PCB layouts and mounting hole spacing.

Q: Do these parts have the same electrical performance specifications?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated at 5 µF capacitance, 150 V voltage rating, with -10%, +50% tolerance, 2000 hours lifetime at 85°C, and -40°C to 105°C operating temperature range.

Q: What inventory status should influence part selection?

A: TE1504 has 945 pieces in stock while TE1504-E3 has 1090 pieces in stock. Inventory availability may be a secondary consideration after confirming compliance requirements are met.
