Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPJ1J221MHD1TO is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Capacitance: 220 µF (exact match required)
Voltage Rating: 63 V (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
Package Configuration: Radial, Can with 0.197" (5.00 mm) lead spacing
Physical Dimensions: 0.492" (12.50 mm) diameter, 0.866" (22.00 mm) height maximum
Mounting Type: Through Hole
Polarization: Polar
RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: UPM1J221MHD1TO (Nichicon, parametric equivalent) and EEU-FC1J221SB (Panasonic Electronic Components, upgrade option).
