UHE1V331MPD Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The UHE1V331MPD is a 330 µF, 35 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial configuration manufactured by Nichicon. This component is classified as Not For New Designs, indicating it has been superseded in Nichicon's product portfolio. The UHE series offers a 7000-hour lifetime rating at 105°C, making it suitable for general-purpose applications requiring moderate operational longevity. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary due to the product's discontinued status for new designs and potential supply constraints.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution validity for the UHE1V331MPD is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: capacitance (330 µF), voltage rating (35 V), tolerance (±20%), polarization (polar), mounting type (through hole), package type (radial can), and lead spacing (5.00 mm). The diameter and height may vary within mechanical constraints of the PCB layout. Lifetime rating and ripple current specifications are secondary considerations that may differ between substitutes without affecting basic electrical function, though they influence reliability in specific thermal and AC stress environments.
Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:
Similar Substitutes (Nichicon UHE/UHD/UHV Series): Direct Nichicon alternatives within the same manufacturer ecosystem, offering identical electrical specifications with variations in lifetime ratings (4000–7000 hours) and physical dimensions.
Active Substitutes (Panasonic and Chemi-Con): Parts from alternative manufacturers with active product status, providing equivalent electrical performance with enhanced or comparable lifetime ratings and full compliance certifications.
