Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the UPB2V220MHD1TO is determined by the following critical parameters: capacitance value (22 µF), voltage rating (350 V or higher), tolerance (±20%), physical dimensions (0.492" diameter, 21.50 mm height maximum, 5.00 mm lead spacing), and mounting configuration (through-hole radial can). All substitute parts maintain these core electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct compatibility in circuit applications.

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories:

Direct Manufacturer Substitutes: Parts from Nichicon with identical electrical specifications but improved lifetime ratings or different product status classifications.

Upgrade Substitutes: Parts from alternative manufacturers (Chemi-Con) with enhanced performance characteristics, including extended lifetime ratings, improved ripple current handling, and wider operating temperature ranges.

Similar Substitutes: Parts from other manufacturers (Rubycon) with equivalent electrical performance and identical physical form factors.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement: The UCA2V220MHD1TO from Nichicon provides identical electrical performance with extended lifetime (12000 hours versus 5000 hours at 105°C). However, this part is classified as "Not For New Designs," limiting its suitability for new product development.

For New Designs and Active Production: The EKXG351ETE220MK20S from Chemi-Con is recommended as the primary substitute. This part carries Active product status, meets ROHS3 compliance, and provides superior performance with 10000-hour lifetime rating, extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C), and increased ripple current capacity (260 mA @ 120 Hz, 650 mA @ 100 kHz).

For Higher Voltage Applications: The EKXG401ETD220MK20S from Chemi-Con offers 400 V rating with identical capacitance and superior performance characteristics. This part is suitable when circuit design permits higher voltage ratings.

For Equivalent Performance: The 350CFX22MEFC12.5X20 from Rubycon maintains identical electrical specifications and lifetime rating as the original part, with Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Physical dimensions are equivalent with maximum seated height of 22.00 mm (0.866 inches).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UCA2V220MHD1TO be used as a direct replacement for UPB2V220MHD1TO?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (22 µF), voltage rating (350 V), tolerance (±20%), physical dimensions, and lead spacing. The UCA2V220MHD1TO provides extended lifetime (12000 hours versus 5000 hours at 105°C). However, the UCA2V220MHD1TO is classified as "Not For New Designs," making it suitable only for maintenance and repair of existing equipment.

Q: What are the advantages of EKXG351ETE220MK20S over the original UPB2V220MHD1TO?

A: The EKXG351ETE220MK20S maintains identical capacitance and voltage specifications while offering: Active product status for new designs, extended lifetime (10000 hours at 105°C), wider operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C versus -25°C to 105°C), and significantly higher ripple current capacity (260 mA @ 120 Hz and 650 mA @ 100 kHz versus 175 mA and 350 mA respectively).

Q: Is EKXG401ETD220MK20S compatible with circuits designed for 350 V operation?

A: Yes. The EKXG401ETD220MK20S is rated for 400 V, which exceeds the 350 V requirement. Higher voltage-rated capacitors are electrically compatible in lower-voltage applications. All other electrical parameters (capacitance, tolerance, ripple current) are equivalent to EKXG351ETE220MK20S.

Q: What is the difference in physical dimensions between substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts maintain the same lead spacing (5.00 mm) and diameter (12.50 mm). Maximum seated height varies slightly: UPB2V220MHD1TO, UCA2V220MHD1TO, and EKXG351ETE220MK20S are 21.50 mm; EKXG401ETD220MK20S is 21.50 mm; 350CFX22MEFC12.5X20 is 22.00 mm. These minor variations are within standard PCB layout tolerances for through-hole radial components.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: EKXG351ETE220MK20S, EKXG401ETD220MK20S, UCA2V220MHD1TO, and 350CFX22MEFC12.5X20 are all ROHS3 compliant. The original UPB2V220MHD1TO does not specify RoHS status.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new product designs?

A: EKXG351ETE220MK20S is the recommended choice for new designs. It carries Active product status, meets current compliance standards (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected), and provides superior performance characteristics including extended lifetime and enhanced ripple current handling.
