Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent (Same Voltage Rating): UPJ0J272MHD1TO is the direct equivalent from Nichicon, matching the 6.3 V rating. This part maintains identical electrical specifications with minor physical dimension variation (height 26.50mm vs. 27.00mm). Both parts carry "Not For New Designs" status.

Upgraded Substitutes (Higher Voltage Rating): UPA1C272MHD1TO, 860080378025, and 860160378039 provide 16 V ratings with improved electrical performance (lower impedance). These parts are suitable for applications operating at or below 6.3 V and carry Active product status, making them preferred for new designs and ongoing production.

Alternative Substitutes (10 V Rating): UPW1A272MHD1TO, B41858C3278M8, and EEU-FC1A272B offer 10 V ratings with extended or equivalent lifetime ratings. UPW1A272MHD1TO provides 7000-hour lifetime. B41858C3278M8 and EEU-FC1A272B carry Active status with automotive compliance certifications.

Compliance Considerations: All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance. B41858C3278M8 and EEU-FC1A272B retain AEC-Q200 automotive ratings matching the original part's automotive application profile.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute UPM0J272MHD1TO with a higher voltage-rated part? A: Yes. Parts rated at 10 V or 16 V are acceptable substitutes for applications operating at 6.3 V or below. Higher voltage ratings provide design margin and improved electrical performance (lower impedance). Verify circuit design does not require the specific 6.3 V rating.

Q: What is the difference between Nichicon UPA1C272MHD1TO and Würth Elektronik 860080378025? A: Both are 2700 µF, 16 V, ±20% tolerance parts with identical lead spacing and 5000-hour lifetime at 105°C. UPA1C272MHD1TO has 22 mOhms impedance and 1.063" height. 860080378025 has 22 mOhms impedance and 1.043" height. Physical dimension difference is 0.020" (0.50mm). Both are Active status parts suitable for new designs.

Q: Is UPW1A272MHD1TO a better choice than UPM0J272MHD1TO? A: UPW1A272MHD1TO offers extended lifetime (7000 hours vs. 5000 hours at 105°C) and higher voltage rating (10 V vs. 6.3 V). However, it carries "Not For New Designs" status. For new designs, select UPA1C272MHD1TO or 860080378025 (both Active status, 16 V rating).

Q: Do all substitute parts use the same lead spacing? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain 0.197" (5.00mm) lead spacing, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility. Physical can diameter varies slightly (12.50mm vs. 13.00mm for Würth parts), but this does not affect electrical performance or mounting.

Q: Which substitute part has the lowest impedance? A: UPA1C272MHD1TO and 860080378025 both feature 22 mOhms impedance, the lowest among all listed substitutes. Lower impedance improves high-frequency ripple current performance.

Q: Can I use EEU-FC1A272B as a direct replacement? A: Yes. EEU-FC1A272B matches all critical parameters (2700 µF, ±20%, 5.00mm lead spacing, radial can package, through-hole mounting). It is rated at 10 V with 5000-hour lifetime and carries Active status with AEC-Q200 automotive compliance, making it suitable for automotive applications.
