Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the UHC0J102MPD is determined by the following criteria:

Primary Substitution Parameters:

Capacitance: 1000 µF (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
Package: Radial, Can with Through Hole mounting (exact match required)
Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00 mm) (exact match required)
Diameter: 0.394" (10.00 mm) (exact match required)
Height: 0.689" (17.50 mm) (exact match required)

Voltage Rating Consideration: Substitute parts may have equal or higher voltage ratings (6.3 V, 10 V, or 16 V) while maintaining identical physical dimensions and capacitance. Higher voltage ratings provide design margin and are electrically compatible in applications rated for 6.3 V or lower.

Lifetime and Temperature Range: Substitute parts may have extended lifetime ratings (4000 Hrs, 6000 Hrs, or 10000 Hrs @ 105°C) or extended temperature ranges (-55°C ~ 105°C). These represent performance improvements and are compatible with the original application requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Mechanical Substitutes (Same Physical Dimensions):

UHD1A102MPD6, UHV1C102MPD, UHW1C102MPD, UKA1A102MPD, UKA1C102MPD, UPA1A102MPD3, UPA1C102MPD, and UPS1A102MPD maintain the 0.197" (5.00 mm) lead spacing, 0.394" (10.00 mm) diameter, and 0.689" (17.50 mm) height. These parts are direct mechanical and electrical substitutes for PCB layouts and mechanical assemblies designed for UHC0J102MPD.

Active Product Status:

UPA1A102MPD3 and UPA1C102MPD are the only parts with Active product status. These are recommended for new designs requiring long-term component availability. Both offer 4000-hour lifetime at 105°C and extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C).

Voltage Rating Selection:

For applications operating at 6.3 V or lower, any substitute with 10 V or 16 V rating is electrically compatible. Higher voltage ratings provide additional design margin without affecting circuit performance.

Compliance Considerations:

UPA1A102MPD3 and UPA1C102MPD carry ROHS3 Compliant status. UHD1A102MPD6, UHV1C102MPD, UKA1A102MPD, UKA1C102MPD, and UPS1A102MPD are ROHS3 Compliant. UHW1C102MPD is ROHS Unaffected. All parts are EAR99 classified and HTSUS 8532.22.0020.

Dimensional Exceptions:

UHD0J102MPD and UHE0J102MPD have different physical dimensions (height and/or diameter) and are not suitable for direct PCB substitution without layout modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 10 V or 16 V rated capacitor in place of the 6.3 V UHC0J102MPD?

A: Yes. Higher voltage-rated capacitors are electrically compatible in applications designed for lower voltages. The capacitor will operate safely at 6.3 V or below. Voltage rating indicates the maximum safe operating voltage, not the required operating voltage.

Q: What is the difference between UPA1A102MPD3 and UPA1C102MPD?

A: Both are Active status parts from the UPA series with identical electrical performance (1000 µF, ±20%, 4000 Hrs @ 105°C, -55°C ~ 105°C). The primary difference is voltage rating: UPA1A102MPD3 is rated 10 V, while UPA1C102MPD is rated 16 V. Select based on your circuit voltage requirements.

Q: Why do some substitutes have different heights (0.551" vs. 0.689")?

A: UHD0J102MPD and UHE0J102MPD have reduced heights due to different internal construction. These parts are not suitable for direct PCB substitution without layout modification. For drop-in replacement, use parts maintaining 0.689" (17.50 mm) height.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Most substitutes are ROHS3 Compliant. UHW1C102MPD is ROHS Unaffected. Verify compliance requirements for your specific application and regulatory jurisdiction.

Q: What is the difference between "Not For New Designs" and "Active" product status?

A: Active status parts are recommended for new designs and have long-term availability commitment. Not For New Designs parts are in mature lifecycle and may have limited future availability. For new applications, prioritize UPA1A102MPD3 or UPA1C102MPD.

Q: Can I substitute UHE0J102MPD for UHC0J102MPD?

A: UHE0J102MPD has different physical dimensions (0.315" diameter, 0.138" lead spacing, 0.591" height) compared to UHC0J102MPD (0.394" diameter, 0.197" lead spacing, 0.689" height). This part is not suitable for direct PCB substitution without layout redesign.

Q: Which substitute offers the best long-term availability?

A: UPA1A102MPD3 and UPA1C102MPD are the only Active status parts. These are recommended for applications requiring long-term component supply and support.
