Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPJ2V2R2MPD is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Capacitance: 2.2 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 350 V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Tolerance: ±20% (matching specification)
• Polarization: Polar (required for polarity-sensitive circuits)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (mechanical compatibility)
• Package Type: Radial, Can (form factor compatibility)
• Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) preferred for direct PCB fit

Secondary Considerations:

• Lifetime @ 105°C: 5000 hours or greater preferred for reliability equivalence
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 105°C minimum
• RoHS3 Compliance: Required for regulatory alignment

Parts are grouped into three categories: direct equivalents (identical electrical and mechanical specifications), compatible substitutes (same core parameters with acceptable variations in case height or ripple current), and upgraded alternatives (higher voltage rating or extended lifetime for enhanced performance margin).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalents (Preferred for Replacement):

UPJ2V2R2MPD1TD is the closest direct equivalent, maintaining identical electrical specifications (2.2 µF, 350 V, ±20%, 5000 Hrs @ 105°C) and mechanical dimensions. However, this part is classified as "Not For New Designs," limiting its use to legacy system maintenance. UPW2V2R2MPD provides equivalent electrical performance with a 0.020" reduction in seated height, suitable for space-constrained applications where the height difference is acceptable.

Compatible Substitutes (Electrical Equivalence with Form Factor Variations):

UVZ2V2R2MPD and MAL214232285E3 / MAL214252285E3 / MAL214272285E3 maintain the 2.2 µF, 350 V, ±20% specification but feature reduced case diameter (0.315" vs. 0.394") and different lead spacing. These parts require PCB layout verification to confirm mechanical fit. The Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components MAL series parts are active products with 2500-hour lifetime ratings, providing long-term availability. SEK2R2M350ST from Cornell Dubilier Electronics offers active product status with comparable electrical performance and reduced height profile.

Upgraded Alternative (Enhanced Performance Margin):

UPM2G2R2MPD provides a 400 V rating (versus 350 V) with maintained 5000-hour lifetime, offering increased voltage margin for applications subject to transient overvoltage conditions. This part is AEC-Q200 qualified for automotive applications and maintains identical lead spacing and case diameter for direct PCB compatibility. Height increases to 0.669", requiring clearance verification.

UVZ2W2R2MPD offers 450 V rating with manufacturer recommendation status, though lifetime reduces to 2000 hours and operating temperature minimum rises to -25°C.

Compliance and Availability:

All listed substitutes maintain RoHS3 compliance. The Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components MAL series and Cornell Dubilier Electronics SEK2R2M350ST are active products with established supply chains, recommended for new designs requiring long-term component availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UPJ2V2R2MPD1TD be used as a direct replacement for UPJ2V2R2MPD?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (2.2 µF, 350 V, ±20%, 5000 Hrs @ 105°C) and mechanical dimensions (0.197" lead spacing, 0.394" case diameter, 0.650" height). The primary difference is product status classification. UPJ2V2R2MPD1TD is marked "Not For New Designs," making it suitable for legacy system repairs but not recommended for new production.

Q: What is the impact of using UVZ2V2R2MPD instead of UPJ2V2R2MPD?

A: UVZ2V2R2MPD maintains the 2.2 µF, 350 V, ±20% electrical specification but introduces three mechanical changes: reduced case diameter (0.315" vs. 0.394"), reduced lead spacing (0.138" vs. 0.197"), and reduced height (0.512" vs. 0.650"). Lifetime also reduces from 5000 to 1000 hours at 105°C. PCB layout modification is required to accommodate the different lead spacing and case diameter. This substitution is suitable only when PCB redesign is feasible.

Q: Is UPM2G2R2MPD a suitable upgrade for UPJ2V2R2MPD?

A: UPM2G2R2MPD is electrically compatible with identical capacitance (2.2 µF), tolerance (±20%), and lifetime (5000 Hrs @ 105°C). The voltage rating increases from 350 V to 400 V, providing additional margin against transient overvoltage. Lead spacing and case diameter remain identical (0.197", 0.394"), but height increases to 0.669". Clearance verification is required. This part is AEC-Q200 qualified for automotive applications.

Q: Can Vishay Beyschlag MAL214232285E3 replace UPJ2V2R2MPD on existing PCBs?

A: Direct PCB replacement is not recommended without layout verification. While electrical specifications match (2.2 µF, 350 V, ±20%), the MAL214232285E3 features reduced case diameter (0.315" vs. 0.394") and identical lead spacing (0.197"). The smaller case diameter may affect mechanical stability or clearance to adjacent components. This part is active and suitable for new designs with appropriate layout accommodation.

Q: What is the advantage of SEK2R2M350ST from Cornell Dubilier Electronics?

A: SEK2R2M350ST maintains the 2.2 µF, 350 V, ±20% specification with active product status, ensuring long-term availability. The part features a compact height of 0.453" (11.50mm), reducing vertical PCB space requirements. Lead spacing is 0.138" (4.60mm), requiring PCB layout modification. Ripple current capability is 35 mA @ 120 Hz, matching the original specification. ESR is specified at 120.63 Ohm @ 120 Hz.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain RoHS3 compliance, meeting regulatory requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: Which substitute offers the best long-term availability?

A: Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components MAL series (MAL214232285E3, MAL214252285E3, MAL214272285E3) and Cornell Dubilier Electronics SEK2R2M350ST are classified as active products, providing established supply chains and long-term availability for production planning.
