• Rated voltage: 160 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Radial, Can (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.394" Dia × 0.866" Height (exact match required)
• Lifetime rating: 2000 Hrs @ 125°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 125°C (exact match required)
• Ripple current specifications: 115 mA @ 120 Hz and 207 mA @ 100 kHz (exact match required)

Only components meeting all specified parameters qualify as direct substitutes. No parameter relaxation or tolerance adjustment is permitted.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The UBT2C220MPD8 maintains Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH compliance designation. Both the main part and identified substitute share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and thermal performance characteristics. Selection between equivalent parts should be based on:

• Supplier availability and lead time
• Procurement cost and volume pricing
• Inventory management requirements
• Existing supply chain relationships

All qualified substitutes maintain equivalent automotive-grade reliability and compliance certifications, ensuring no performance degradation in end-application deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the UBT2C220MPD8 with a different capacitance value?

A: No. Substitution requires exact capacitance matching at 22 µF. Different capacitance values alter circuit performance and are not acceptable substitutes.

Q: Are there voltage derating considerations for substitute selection?

A: No. All qualified substitutes operate at the same 160 V rated voltage with identical operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C). No derating adjustments are necessary.

Q: Does the radial, can package configuration affect substitution eligibility?

A: Yes. The through-hole radial can package with specified lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm) and physical dimensions (0.394" Dia × 0.866" Height) are mandatory for PCB compatibility. Surface mount or alternative package types are not acceptable substitutes.

Q: What is the significance of the 2000 Hrs @ 125°C lifetime rating?

A: This rating defines the component's expected operational life under maximum temperature stress. Substitute parts must match this specification exactly to ensure equivalent reliability in automotive applications.

Q: Are ripple current specifications critical for substitution?

A: Yes. Ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz (115 mA) and 100 kHz (207 mA) determine the component's ability to handle AC current stress. Substitutes must match these specifications to maintain circuit performance and thermal stability.

Q: Does ROHS3 compliance affect part interchangeability?

A: ROHS3 compliance is a regulatory requirement for automotive and industrial applications. All qualified substitutes maintain identical ROHS3 compliance status, ensuring regulatory equivalence.
