TVX2D2R2MAD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TVX2D2R2MAD is a 2.2 µF, 200 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in axial configuration manufactured by Nichicon. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing design support and procurement. The part operates across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 85°C, suitable for general-purpose applications requiring stable capacitance and ripple current handling.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TVX2D2R2MAD is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must remain 2.2 µF to maintain circuit function
• Tolerance: ±20% tolerance is acceptable for general-purpose applications
• Voltage Rating: Substitute must meet or exceed 200 V rated voltage
• Package Configuration: Axial, Can through-hole mounting required for mechanical compatibility
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -40°C to 85°C minimum
• Lifetime Rating: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C or greater ensures equivalent reliability
• Compliance: RoHS3 compliance required for regulatory alignment

The substitute part 225TTA250M from Cornell Dubilier / Illinois Capacitor meets all substitution criteria with a higher voltage rating (250 V) and equivalent or superior electrical characteristics.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 225TTA250M is a direct functional substitute for the TVX2D2R2MAD based on the following factors:

• Product Status: The main part is obsolete; the substitute is active and currently available in production quantities (3432 pcs in stock versus 1059 pcs for the main part)
• Electrical Equivalence: Identical capacitance (2.2 µF) and tolerance (±20%) with higher voltage rating (250 V vs. 200 V), providing design margin
• Thermal Performance: Equivalent lifetime rating of 2000 Hrs @ 85°C and matching operating temperature range
• Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 and REACH compliance, ensuring regulatory continuity
• Mechanical Compatibility: Both use axial, can through-hole packaging; physical dimensions differ slightly but remain compatible with standard PCB layouts

The substitute part's higher voltage rating and improved ripple current handling (30 mA @ 120 Hz and 51 mA @ 50 kHz) provide enhanced performance margins for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 225TTA250M directly replace the TVX2D2R2MAD without circuit modification?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (2.2 µF), tolerance (±20%), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C). The substitute's higher voltage rating (250 V) is compatible with circuits designed for 200 V operation and provides additional safety margin.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: The TVX2D2R2MAD measures 0.248" diameter × 0.669" length (6.30mm × 17.00mm). The 225TTA250M measures 0.315" diameter × 0.630" length (8.00mm × 16.00mm). The substitute is slightly larger in diameter but marginally shorter in length. PCB layout verification is recommended to confirm fit within available space.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. No compliance barriers exist for substitution.

Q: How do the ripple current ratings compare?

A: The TVX2D2R2MAD handles 23 mA @ 120 Hz and 36.8 mA @ 10 kHz. The 225TTA250M handles 30 mA @ 120 Hz and 51 mA @ 50 kHz. The substitute provides higher ripple current capacity across both frequency ranges.

Q: What is the ESR difference between these parts?

A: The TVX2D2R2MAD does not specify ESR. The 225TTA250M specifies 150.715 Ohm @ 120 Hz, providing a measurable reference for low-frequency performance evaluation.

Q: Is the substitute part currently available?

A: Yes. The 225TTA250M is active production status with 3432 pcs in stock, compared to the obsolete TVX2D2R2MAD with 1059 pcs remaining inventory.
