Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPM2G100MHD1TO is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Capacitance: 10 µF (exact match required)
Voltage Rating: 400 V (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
Package Configuration: Radial, Can with identical lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm) and physical dimensions
Mounting Type: Through Hole
Polarization: Polar
Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 105°C (minimum requirement)
RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Manufacturer Substitutes: Parts from Nichicon that maintain identical electrical specifications and physical form factors, differing only in packaging format or product lifecycle status.

Parametric Equivalents: Parts that meet all critical electrical and mechanical parameters but may originate from different product series within the same manufacturer.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

UPM2G100MHD: This part is a direct manufacturer equivalent differing only in packaging format (Bulk vs. Cut Tape). Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection of this substitute is appropriate where packaging format does not constrain procurement or assembly processes. Note that this part carries "Obsolete" status, which may impact long-term availability.

UPW2G100MHD1TO: This substitute offers extended lifetime performance at 7000 hours versus 5000 hours at 105°C, providing enhanced reliability margin in thermal stress environments. Physical dimensions and electrical parameters remain identical. This part is suitable for applications requiring improved thermal endurance while maintaining the same form factor and mounting compatibility. Product status is "Not For New Designs."

UPJ2G100MHD1TO: This parametric equivalent maintains all critical electrical and mechanical specifications identical to the main part. It differs only in product series designation (UPJ vs. UPM). This part is suitable for direct substitution in applications where series designation does not impose design constraints. Product status is "Not For New Designs."

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical operating temperature ranges, ensuring regulatory and thermal compatibility with the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UPM2G100MHD (Bulk packaging) be used as a direct substitute for UPM2G100MHD1TO (Cut Tape)?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is packaging format only. UPM2G100MHD is supplied in Bulk, while UPM2G100MHD1TO is supplied in Cut Tape. Selection depends on procurement and assembly process requirements. Note that UPM2G100MHD carries "Obsolete" status.

Q: What is the advantage of UPW2G100MHD1TO over the main part?

A: UPW2G100MHD1TO provides 7000 hours lifetime at 105°C compared to 5000 hours for UPM2G100MHD1TO. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. This extended lifetime offers improved reliability in high-temperature applications while maintaining identical PCB footprint and mounting compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts—UPM2G100MHD, UPW2G100MHD1TO, and UPJ2G100MHD1TO—are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the main part.

Q: Can these capacitors be used interchangeably on the same PCB?

A: Yes. All substitute parts share identical lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm), physical diameter (0.492" / 12.50 mm), and height (1.063" / 27.00 mm). They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable on through-hole PCB designs without layout modification.

Q: What is the difference between UPJ2G100MHD1TO and UPM2G100MHD1TO?

A: Both parts are parametrically equivalent with identical capacitance, voltage, tolerance, lifetime, and physical dimensions. The primary difference is the product series designation (UPJ vs. UPM). Both carry "Not For New Designs" status. Selection between them depends on design documentation and procurement availability.

Q: Are there any ripple current differences between these substitutes?

A: UPW2G100MHD1TO has lower ripple current ratings (72 mA @ 120 Hz, 115.2 mA @ 10 kHz) compared to UPM2G100MHD1TO and UPJ2G100MHD1TO (85 mA @ 120 Hz, 136 mA @ 10 kHz). In applications with high ripple current demands, UPM2G100MHD1TO or UPJ2G100MHD1TO are preferred.
