Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the UJB0L332TPD must satisfy the following criteria:

• Capacitance value of 3300 µF (exact match required)
• Rated voltage equal to or greater than 5.5 V
• Lead spacing of 0.197" (5.00mm) for PCB compatibility
• Radial, can package configuration for mechanical fit
• Through-hole mounting type
• Polar electrolytic capacitor type
• Operating temperature range that encompasses or exceeds -25°C ~ 85°C

The UVZ0J332MPD meets all substitution criteria. It provides identical capacitance and lead spacing, higher rated voltage (6.3 V), extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), and improved lifetime rating (2000 Hrs @ 105°C versus 1000 Hrs @ 85°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The UVZ0J332MPD is the direct substitute for the UJB0L332TPD. Both components are manufactured by Nichicon and share identical capacitance and lead spacing specifications. The UVZ0J332MPD provides superior electrical performance with higher rated voltage (6.3 V versus 5.5 V), extended operating temperature range, and doubled lifetime rating at elevated temperature.

The UVZ0J332MPD is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the main part does not specify RoHS status. Both components are REACH Unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99.

Height difference must be verified during PCB layout review. The UVZ0J332MPD has a maximum seated height of 0.866" (22.00mm) compared to 0.689" (17.50mm) for the UJB0L332TPD. This 0.177" (4.50mm) increase requires clearance validation in the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the UVZ0J332MPD directly replace the UJB0L332TPD on existing PCBs?

A: Electrical substitution is valid. The capacitance, voltage rating, and lead spacing are compatible. However, the increased height of the UVZ0J332MPD (0.866" versus 0.689") must be verified against available clearance in the enclosure or assembly.

Q: Why is the UVZ0J332MPD rated for higher voltage (6.3 V) than the original (5.5 V)?

A: Higher voltage rating provides design margin and does not affect circuit operation when the applied voltage remains at or below 5.5 V. The capacitance value remains identical at 3300 µF.

Q: What is the significance of the tolerance difference between the two parts?

A: The UJB0L332TPD has -10%, +50% tolerance, while the UVZ0J332MPD has ±20% tolerance. The UVZ0J332MPD provides tighter tolerance control, which may improve circuit performance consistency.

Q: Are both parts suitable for new designs?

A: The UJB0L332TPD is Obsolete and unsuitable for new designs. The UVZ0J332MPD is classified as Not For New Designs. For new product development, consult current Nichicon aluminum electrolytic capacitor offerings in the 3300 µF, 6.3 V category.

Q: What is the ripple current rating of the substitute part?

A: The UVZ0J332MPD supports 840 mA @ 120 Hz (low frequency) and 966 mA @ 10 kHz (high frequency). The original part does not specify ripple current ratings.
