Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the UPJ1V271MHD6TO is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Capacitance value: 270 µF (exact match required)
  • Voltage rating: 35 V (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
  • Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
  • Lead spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) (exact match required)
  • Package configuration: Radial, Can through-hole (exact match required)
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
  • Lifetime rating: 5000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)

The UPM1V271MHD6TO qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment with all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Differences in impedance, height tolerance, and application classification do not affect functional interchangeability within the specified parameter envelope.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the UPJ1V271MHD6TO and UPM1V271MHD6TO are ROHS3 compliant and carry equivalent electrical specifications. The UPM1V271MHD6TO includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and is classified for automotive applications, whereas the UPJ1V271MHD6TO is designated for general-purpose use. The UPM1V271MHD6TO exhibits lower impedance (80 mOhms versus 130 mOhms) and a marginally increased seated height (0.669" versus 0.650"). Both parts maintain identical capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature range, and ripple current specifications. Selection between these parts depends on application requirements and compliance certifications needed for the end system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the UPM1V271MHD6TO replace the UPJ1V271MHD6TO in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical parameters: 270 µF capacitance, 35 V voltage rating, ±20% tolerance, -55°C to 105°C operating range, and 5000-hour lifetime at 105°C. Lead spacing and package configuration are identical. The 0.019" (0.50mm) increase in seated height must be verified against PCB clearance constraints.

Q: What is the significance of the impedance difference?

A: The UPM1V271MHD6TO has lower impedance (80 mOhms) compared to the UPJ1V271MHD6TO (130 mOhms). This difference does not affect substitution eligibility but may influence ripple current performance in high-frequency applications. Both parts meet the specified ripple current ratings.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The UPM1V271MHD6TO carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and is designated for automotive applications. The UPJ1V271MHD6TO is classified for general-purpose applications. Application requirements determine which certification is appropriate.

Q: Does the "Not For New Designs" status affect substitution?

A: The "Not For New Designs" status indicates the UPJ1V271MHD6TO is obsolete for new product development. The UPM1V271MHD6TO provides functional equivalence and is available in higher inventory quantities, making it suitable for replacement in production and maintenance scenarios.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible with existing PCB layouts?

A: Lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00mm) and diameter (0.492" / 12.50mm) are identical. The seated height difference of 0.019" (0.50mm) must be evaluated against available vertical clearance on the PCB assembly.
