Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPT2D271MHD is determined by strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

• Capacitance: 270 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 200 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Lifetime: 5000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature: -25°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial, Can (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.295" (7.50mm) (exact match required)

Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The UPT2D271MHD6 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all electrical parameters, thermal ratings, compliance certifications, and lead spacing. Dimensional variations in can diameter and height do not affect electrical performance or PCB-level compatibility when lead spacing remains constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both UPT2D271MHD and UPT2D271MHD6 maintain Active product status with identical RoHS3 and REACH compliance certifications. Selection between these parts is based on inventory availability and mechanical envelope constraints:

UPT2D271MHD is the primary specification when space constraints require the smaller can diameter (16.00mm) and greater height (37.00mm).

UPT2D271MHD6 is the substitute when the larger can diameter (18.00mm) and reduced height (33.00mm) are compatible with the application's mechanical layout. This variant offers higher current inventory availability (1349 pcs vs. 904 pcs).

Both parts deliver equivalent electrical performance with ripple current specifications within acceptable tolerance bands. Lead spacing remains constant at 0.295" (7.50mm), ensuring PCB footprint compatibility without redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UPT2D271MHD6 be used as a direct replacement for UPT2D271MHD?

A: Yes, when mechanical envelope permits. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (270 µF, 200 V, ±20%, 5000 Hrs @ 105°C), lead spacing (7.50mm), and compliance certifications. The UPT2D271MHD6 features a larger diameter (18.00mm vs. 16.00mm) and shorter height (33.00mm vs. 37.00mm). Verify that the application's PCB layout and component clearances accommodate these dimensional differences.

Q: Are the ripple current ratings equivalent?

A: Ripple current specifications are within acceptable tolerance. UPT2D271MHD delivers 880 mA @ 120 Hz and 1.408 A @ 10 kHz. UPT2D271MHD6 delivers 870 mA @ 120 Hz and 1.392 A @ 10 kHz. Both variants meet the same thermal and reliability standards for general-purpose applications.

Q: What is the significance of the lead spacing specification?

A: Lead spacing of 0.295" (7.50mm) is the distance between the two radial leads on the PCB. Both parts maintain identical lead spacing, ensuring that PCB footprints designed for one part will accommodate the other without modification.

Q: Do both parts comply with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both UPT2D271MHD and UPT2D271MHD6 are RoHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions for electronic components.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on mechanical constraints and inventory requirements. For new designs, either part is acceptable provided the can diameter and height fit the intended application space. Consult current inventory levels and lead times for procurement optimization.
