URS1E331MPD1TD Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The Nichicon URS1E331MPD1TD is a 330 µF, 25 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package configuration. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement. The URS series represents legacy technology that requires modern alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity and access to improved performance characteristics.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution of the URS1E331MPD1TD is determined by the following critical parameters:
- Capacitance Value: Must be 330 µF (exact match required)
- Voltage Rating: Substitute must be rated at 25 V or higher
- Tolerance: ±20% tolerance maintained
- Polarization: Polar configuration required
- Package Type: Radial, can package with through-hole mounting
- Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch for PCB compatibility
- Diameter: 0.394" (10.00mm) maximum diameter constraint
- Compliance: ROHS3 compliant status required
The Rubycon 35ZLH330MEFCT810X12.5 meets all substitution criteria with identical capacitance, tolerance, polarization, lead spacing, and diameter specifications. The higher voltage rating (35 V vs. 25 V) and improved lifetime rating provide enhanced reliability margins without affecting circuit compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
The Rubycon 35ZLH330MEFCT810X12.5 is a direct substitute for the obsolete Nichicon URS1E331MPD1TD. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying regulatory requirements for current manufacturing environments.
The substitute part provides superior performance characteristics: higher voltage rating (35 V), extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C), and significantly improved lifetime rating (10000 Hrs @ 105°C versus 2000 Hrs @ 85°C). These enhancements deliver increased reliability margins without requiring circuit redesign or PCB layout modifications.
Physical compatibility is confirmed across all critical dimensions: identical lead spacing (5.00mm), diameter (10.00mm), and radial can package configuration ensure direct drop-in replacement capability on existing PCB designs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the Rubycon 35ZLH330MEFCT810X12.5 be used as a direct replacement for the Nichicon URS1E331MPD1TD?
A: Yes. Both components share identical capacitance (330 µF), tolerance (±20%), polarization (polar), lead spacing (5.00mm), and physical diameter (10.00mm). The substitute meets all electrical and mechanical compatibility requirements for direct PCB substitution.
Q: What is the significance of the higher voltage rating on the substitute part?
A: The Rubycon part is rated at 35 V compared to the original 25 V rating. This higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin in the circuit and does not affect compatibility. The component operates safely at the original 25 V circuit voltage.
Q: Are there any height differences between these components?
A: Yes. The Nichicon URS1E331MPD1TD has a maximum seated height of 0.413" (10.50mm), while the Rubycon 35ZLH330MEFCT810X12.5 has a maximum seated height of 0.551" (14.00mm). Verify clearance in the target application before substitution.
Q: Do both parts meet current compliance standards?
A: Yes. Both the original and substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and distribution.
Q: What is the advantage of the substitute part's extended lifetime rating?
A: The Rubycon substitute is rated for 10000 Hrs @ 105°C compared to 2000 Hrs @ 85°C for the original. This extended lifetime rating indicates improved long-term reliability and reduced failure risk in field applications.
