UPW2V010MPD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UPW2V010MPD is a 1 µF, 350 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package manufactured by Nichicon. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and production continuity. The UPW series has been discontinued, requiring engineers to identify functionally compatible alternatives from active product lines that maintain the same electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPW2V010MPD is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Capacitance: 1 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 350 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial, Can (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

All identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Secondary parameters such as lead spacing, physical dimensions, ripple current ratings, and lifetime specifications may vary within acceptable engineering tolerances for through-hole radial capacitors of this class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Active Product Status)

The MAL214231085E3, MAL214251085E3, and MAL214271085E3 from Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components are recommended as primary substitutes. These parts carry active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability. All three are ROHS3 compliant and rated for 2500 hours at 105°C, providing adequate operational life for general-purpose applications. The MAL series represents the current generation of equivalent 1 µF, 350 V radial aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Secondary Substitute (Active Product Status)

The SEK010M350ST from Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) is an active product offering equivalent electrical specifications. This part is ROHS3 compliant and rated for 2000 hours at 105°C. Selection of this part should be based on specific application requirements and PCB layout constraints, as physical dimensions differ from the main part.

Transitional Substitute (Obsolete Status)

The UVZ2V010MED from Nichicon is also obsolete but remains available in inventory. This part meets all core electrical and mechanical requirements but carries a reduced lifetime rating of 1000 hours at 105°C compared to the original UPW2V010MPD. Use of this part should be limited to applications where reduced lifetime is acceptable or as a temporary bridge solution during transition to active product lines.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use MAL214231085E3 as a direct replacement for UPW2V010MPD?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications: 1 µF capacitance, ±20% tolerance, 350 V rating, and -40°C to 105°C operating range. Both are ROHS3 compliant and mounted through-hole in radial, can packages. Physical dimensions differ slightly, but lead spacing remains compatible with standard PCB layouts designed for 5.00 mm pitch radial capacitors.

Q: What is the difference between MAL214231085E3 and MAL214251085E3?

A: Both parts are electrically identical with 1 µF, 350 V specifications and 2500-hour lifetime at 105°C. The primary difference is lead spacing: MAL214231085E3 has 0.197" (5.00 mm) spacing, while MAL214251085E3 has 0.098" (2.50 mm) spacing. Selection depends on PCB hole pattern requirements.

Q: Why does UVZ2V010MED have a lower lifetime rating than UPW2V010MPD?

A: The UVZ2V010MED is rated for 1000 hours at 105°C compared to the UPW2V010MPD's 5000 hours. This reflects different design specifications within Nichicon's product portfolio. For applications requiring extended operational life at elevated temperatures, active products from Vishay or CDE are preferred.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All identified substitute parts—UVZ2V010MED, MAL214231085E3, MAL214251085E3, MAL214271085E3, and SEK010M350ST—are ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the original UPW2V010MPD.

Q: Which substitute should I choose for new designs?

A: For new designs, select from the active product status parts: MAL214231085E3, MAL214251085E3, MAL214271085E3 (Vishay), or SEK010M350ST (CDE). These ensure long-term supply availability and support. Choose based on lead spacing requirements and packaging preferences (Tape & Box or Bulk).

Q: Can I mix different substitute parts in the same design?

A: Yes, provided PCB layout accommodates the different lead spacings. MAL214231085E3 and MAL214271085E3 use 0.197" (5.00 mm) spacing, while MAL214251085E3 uses 0.098" (2.50 mm) spacing. SEK010M350ST uses 0.138" (4.60 mm) spacing. Verify hole pattern compatibility before assembly.
