Engineering Selection Recommendations
All listed substitute parts meet the mandatory electrical specifications (56 µF, 63 V, ±20%, polar, through-hole radial can) and maintain AEC-Q200 automotive compliance. Selection should be based on the following criteria:
For Direct Replacement (Identical Specifications): UPM1J560MPD1TD is the direct equivalent, differing only in packaging format (Cut Tape versus Bulk). This part maintains identical electrical performance and physical dimensions.
For Extended Lifetime Applications: UPM1J560MPD6 and ELXY630ELL560MJC5S both offer 5000 Hrs lifetime at 105°C, compared to 3000 Hrs for the original part. These are suitable where enhanced reliability is required, though they feature different lead spacing (5.00 mm) and physical dimensions.
For Active Product Status: Panasonic EEU-FC series (EEU-FC1J560, EEU-FC1J560B, EEU-FC1J560BJ) and Chemi-Con ELXY630ELL560MJC5S carry Active product status, ensuring continued availability and support. These are recommended for new production planning where the original Nichicon UPM series is no longer supported.
Packaging Considerations:
- Bulk packaging: UPM1J560MPD, UPM1J560MPD6, EEU-FC1J560, ELXY630ELL560MJC5S
- Cut Tape: UPM1J560MPD1TD
- Tape & Box: EEU-FC1J560B, EEU-FC1J560BJ
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I substitute EEU-FC1J560 for UPM1J560MPD in my existing design? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (56 µF, 63 V, ±20% tolerance) and through-hole radial can packaging. Physical dimensions differ slightly (height: 11.50 mm versus 16.50 mm), but this does not affect electrical compatibility. Verify PCB layout clearance before implementation.
Q: What is the difference between UPM1J560MPD and UPM1J560MPD1TD? A: These parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format: UPM1J560MPD is supplied in Bulk, while UPM1J560MPD1TD is supplied in Cut Tape. Both maintain the same performance specifications and physical dimensions.
Q: Why does UPM1J560MPD6 have different lead spacing? A: UPM1J560MPD6 uses 5.00 mm lead spacing compared to 4.60 mm on the original part. This affects PCB footprint and hole spacing. Verify your PCB design accommodates this spacing before substitution.
Q: Are all substitute parts AEC-Q200 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, meeting the same reliability and quality standards as the original UPM1J560MPD.
Q: What does "Not For New Designs" mean for the original part? A: This indicates the manufacturer has discontinued support for new applications. Existing designs may continue using available inventory, but new designs should transition to Active status alternatives such as the Panasonic EEU-FC series or Chemi-Con ELXY series.
Q: Can I use a substitute with different lifetime rating? A: Yes, provided your application requirements are met. The original part specifies 3000 Hrs @ 105°C. Substitutes with 2000 Hrs (Panasonic FC series) are acceptable for applications with lower thermal stress. Substitutes with 5000 Hrs (UPM1J560MPD6, ELXY630ELL560MJC5S) provide extended reliability margins.
Q: Do all substitutes have the same impedance? A: No. Impedance varies: 210 mOhms (UPM series), 230 mOhms (UPM1J560MPD6), 270 mOhms (ELXY630ELL560MJC5S), and 342 mOhms (Panasonic FC series). For noise-sensitive applications, verify impedance specifications against your circuit requirements.
