Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the UCD1E560MCL1GS are identified based on matching the following critical parameters: capacitance value (56 µF), voltage rating (25 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), lifetime specification (2000 Hrs @ 105°C), package type (Radial, Can - SMD), physical dimensions (0.248" diameter), and surface mount land size (0.260" L x 0.260" W). All identified substitutes maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications. Differences in ripple current ratings, impedance, height, and application classification are noted but do not preclude substitution when circuit design margins accommodate such variations.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The UCD1E560MCL1GS and UUD1E560MCL1GS are both AEC-Q200 rated for automotive applications. The UWD1E560MCL1GS is classified for general purpose applications and lacks automotive certification. Selection between UCD1E560MCL1GS and UUD1E560MCL1GS is appropriate for automotive designs requiring AEC-Q200 compliance. The UWD1E560MCL1GS may be substituted in non-automotive circuits where AEC-Q200 certification is not required. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected. Physical compatibility is confirmed across all three parts for the specified surface mount land pattern. Ripple current and impedance differences are documented; circuit design margins must accommodate the lower ripple current ratings of UWD1E560MCL1GS and UUD1E560MCL1GS compared to the primary part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UWD1E560MCL1GS replace UCD1E560MCL1GS in automotive applications?

A: UWD1E560MCL1GS is classified for general purpose applications and does not carry AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Substitution in automotive designs requires confirmation that AEC-Q200 compliance is not a design requirement. UUD1E560MCL1GS is the recommended automotive-rated substitute.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: All three parts share identical physical diameter (0.248" / 6.30mm) and surface mount land size (0.260" L x 0.260" W / 6.60mm x 6.60mm). UWD1E560MCL1GS has a maximum seated height of 0.228" (5.80mm) compared to 0.240" (6.10mm) for UCD1E560MCL1GS and UUD1E560MCL1GS. This height difference must be evaluated for clearance-critical applications.

Q: What are the electrical differences between these substitutes?

A: All parts maintain identical capacitance (56 µF), voltage rating (25 V), tolerance (±20%), and temperature specifications. Ripple current ratings differ: UCD1E560MCL1GS provides 120 mA @ 120 Hz and 240 mA @ 100 kHz, while UWD1E560MCL1GS and UUD1E560MCL1GS provide 115 mA @ 120 Hz and 230 mA @ 100 kHz respectively. Impedance is 360 mOhms for UCD1E560MCL1GS and 440 mOhms for the other two parts.

Q: Are all parts currently available?

A: All three parts are active products with current inventory: UCD1E560MCL1GS (875 Pcs), UWD1E560MCL1GS (1408 Pcs), and UUD1E560MCL1GS (4672 Pcs).

Q: What compliance certifications apply to each part?

A: UCD1E560MCL1GS and UUD1E560MCL1GS carry AEC-Q200 automotive ratings. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected. ECCN classification is EAR99 for all parts.
