Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the UPW1V331MPD1AL and ELXZ350ELL331MJ16S are active production components with AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than functional differences. The Chemi-Con ELXZ350ELL331MJ16S variant currently maintains higher inventory levels (2438 units) compared to the Nichicon UPW1V331MPD1AL (877 units), which may influence procurement decisions for high-volume applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ELXZ350ELL331MJ16S replace the UPW1V331MPD1AL in automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both components meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including AEC-Q200 certification, operating temperature range, lifetime rating, and physical dimensions. Direct substitution is supported.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components share identical lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm), diameter (0.394" / 10.00 mm), and seated height (0.689" / 17.50 mm), ensuring PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

Q: What is the significance of the 5000 Hrs @ 105°C lifetime rating?

A: This specification defines the expected operational life under maximum temperature conditions. Both parts maintain this rating, ensuring equivalent reliability in thermal stress environments.

Q: Do both parts require the same soldering and handling procedures?

A: Yes. Both components are through-hole mounted radial aluminum electrolytic capacitors with identical lead spacing and package configuration, requiring standard PCB assembly processes.

Q: Is RoHS compliance a differentiator between these parts?

A: The Chemi-Con ELXZ350ELL331MJ16S is specified as ROHS3 Compliant. Compliance status should be verified against specific application requirements.
