UPJ1K101MHD6TO Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UPJ1K101MHD6TO is a 100 µF, 80 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 This component is classified as Not For New Designs, indicating it has been superseded in the manufacturer's product line. Organizations using this part in existing designs or requiring inventory replenishment must identify compatible substitute components that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while considering packaging and certification requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the UPJ1K101MHD6TO are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence: Capacitance (100 µF), voltage rating (80 V), and tolerance (±20%) must be identical
Mechanical Compatibility: Lead spacing (5.00mm), mounting type (Through Hole), and package configuration (Radial, Can) must match
Thermal Performance: Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C) and lifetime rating (5000 Hrs @ 105°C) must be maintained
Polarization: Polar configuration must be preserved

The following parts meet these substitution criteria:

UPJ1K101MHD6 (Nichicon, Bulk packaging) — Same series, identical electrical and mechanical specifications, differs only in packaging format
UPM1K101MHD6TO (Nichicon, Cut Tape packaging) — Different series with automotive-grade certification (AEC-Q200), identical core electrical parameters, minor dimensional variation in seated height

Engineering Selection Recommendations

UPJ1K101MHD6 is the primary substitute for direct replacement in general-purpose applications. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing only in packaging format (Bulk versus Cut Tape). Both parts carry identical product status (Not For New Designs) and compliance certifications.

UPM1K101MHD6TO is suitable as an alternative when automotive-grade qualification (AEC-Q200) is required or beneficial. This part introduces a 0.5mm increase in seated height (17.00mm versus 16.50mm), which must be evaluated against PCB layout constraints. The UPM series carries REACH Affected status, whereas the UPJ series is REACH Unaffected. Selection between UPJ and UPM variants should account for end-application regulatory requirements and available board space.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UPJ1K101MHD6 be used as a direct replacement for UPJ1K101MHD6TO?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical specifications (100 µF, 80 V, ±20% tolerance), mechanical dimensions (5.00mm lead spacing, 12.50mm diameter, 16.50mm seated height), and thermal performance (5000 Hrs @ 105°C). The only difference is packaging format: UPJ1K101MHD6TO is supplied in Cut Tape, while UPJ1K101MHD6 is supplied in Bulk. PCB assembly compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the significance of the height difference between UPJ1K101MHD6TO and UPM1K101MHD6TO?

A: UPM1K101MHD6TO has a maximum seated height of 17.00mm compared to 16.50mm for UPJ1K101MHD6TO. This 0.5mm difference must be verified against PCB layout, component clearance requirements, and enclosure constraints before substitution.

Q: When should UPM1K101MHD6TO be selected over UPJ1K101MHD6?

A: UPM1K101MHD6TO carries AEC-Q200 automotive-grade certification and is designated for automotive applications. Selection should be based on application requirements and regulatory compliance needs. The UPM series is REACH Affected, while the UPJ series is REACH Unaffected; this distinction may influence supply chain and regulatory compliance decisions.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. UPJ1K101MHD6TO, UPJ1K101MHD6, and UPM1K101MHD6TO are all ROHS3 compliant.

Q: What is the ripple current rating for these capacitors?

A: UPJ1K101MHD6TO and UPJ1K101MHD6 support 308 mA @ 120 Hz (low frequency) and 466 mA @ 10 kHz (high frequency). UPM1K101MHD6TO supports 400 mA @ 120 Hz.
