UPW2D100MPD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UPW2D100MPD is a 10 µF, 200 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package manufactured by Nichicon. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The UPW series offers a 5000-hour lifetime rating at 105°C with general-purpose applications in through-hole mounting configurations.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPW2D100MPD is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Capacitance (10 µF), voltage rating (200 V), and tolerance (±20%) must match exactly
Mechanical Parameters: Lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm), case diameter (0.394" / 10.00 mm), and mounting type (through hole) must be compatible with existing PCB layouts
Environmental Parameters: Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C) and polarization (polar) must be maintained
Compliance: RoHS3 compliance is required for current applications

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories based on product status and performance characteristics: direct manufacturer alternatives from Nichicon, manufacturer-recommended upgrades with enhanced specifications, and similar parts from alternative manufacturers meeting equivalent electrical and mechanical requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Nichicon Alternatives (Same Manufacturer)

UPS2D100MPD and UVZ2D100MPD are direct Nichicon alternatives with identical electrical specifications. Both are classified as obsolete or not for new designs. UPS2D100MPD maintains the same physical footprint as the UPW2D100MPD with reduced lifetime (2000 hours). UVZ2D100MPD has different lead spacing (0.138" vs. 0.197") and smaller case diameter, making it unsuitable for direct PCB replacement.

Manufacturer-Recommended Upgrade

UCS2D100MPD is the active Nichicon product with enhanced performance: 8000-hour lifetime at 105°C versus 5000 hours for the UPW2D100MPD. Height increases from 0.630" to 0.689", requiring PCB layout verification. This part is recommended for new designs and ongoing production where board space permits the additional height.

Alternative Manufacturer Options

EKXG201ELL100MJ16S (Chemi-Con, KXG series) is an active product with 8000-hour lifetime and identical physical dimensions to the UPW2D100MPD (0.630" height). This part provides direct form-factor compatibility with enhanced reliability.

MAL214232109E3 and MAL214252109E3 (Vishay, 142 RHS series) are active products with 2500-hour lifetime. Both maintain standard lead spacing and case diameter with reduced height (0.531"). These parts are suitable where vertical space is constrained.

SEK100M200ST (Cornell Dubilier, SEK series) is an active product with 2000-hour lifetime and 19.9 Ohm ESR specification. Physical dimensions match the UVZ2D100MPD profile (0.512" height).

All substitute parts maintain RoHS3 compliance and the required operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UCS2D100MPD replace UPW2D100MPD directly on existing PCBs?

A: UCS2D100MPD has identical lead spacing (0.197" / 5.00 mm) and case diameter (0.394" / 10.00 mm), but height increases from 0.630" to 0.689". Verify clearance above the component before installation. If vertical space is limited, EKXG201ELL100MJ16S maintains the original 0.630" height.

Q: What is the impact of reduced lifetime ratings on substitute parts?

A: UPS2D100MPD and SEK100M200ST offer 2000-hour lifetime versus 5000 hours for the original UPW2D100MPD. MAL214232109E3 and MAL214252109E3 provide 2500-hour lifetime. EKXG201ELL100MJ16S and UCS2D100MPD both offer 8000-hour lifetime, exceeding the original specification. Select based on application duty cycle and expected service life requirements.

Q: Are there mechanical compatibility issues with alternative manufacturers?

A: All substitute parts maintain the standard 0.197" (5.00 mm) lead spacing and 0.394" (10.00 mm) case diameter except UVY2D100MPD, which uses 0.138" lead spacing and 0.315" case diameter. UVY2D100MPD is not recommended for direct replacement. Height variations range from 0.492" to 0.689"; verify PCB clearance for each candidate part.

Q: Which substitute part is recommended for new designs?

A: UCS2D100MPD (Nichicon, active status) and EKXG201ELL100MJ16S (Chemi-Con, active status) are both active products. UCS2D100MPD is the manufacturer-recommended upgrade with 8000-hour lifetime. EKXG201ELL100MJ16S provides identical form factor to the original UPW2D100MPD with equivalent performance.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet current compliance requirements?

A: All listed substitute parts are RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.
