UVY2G2R2MPD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The UVY2G2R2MPD is a 2.2 µF, 400 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in radial, can package manufactured by Nichicon. This component is rated for 1000 hours at 105°C and is classified as Not For New Designs. Due to its obsolescence status and limited thermal lifetime, equivalent and substitute parts with extended operational life or improved specifications are available from multiple manufacturers including Rubycon, Vishay, Cornell Dubilier, and Chemi-Con.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the UVY2G2R2MPD is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters: capacitance (2.2 µF), voltage rating (400 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C), polarization (polar), and through-hole radial can package. Parts are grouped into three categories based on substitution viability:

Direct Equivalents (Same Footprint & Electrical Characteristics): Parts with identical lead spacing (0.138" / 4.60mm), case diameter (0.315" / 8.00mm), and height (0.512" / 13.00mm). These include 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5, 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5, MAL214252286E3, MAL214272286E3, 400PX2.2MEFC8X11.5, and EKMG401ELL2R2MHB5D.

Similar Equivalents (Larger Footprint, Enhanced Performance): Parts with larger case dimensions (0.394" / 10.00mm diameter, 5.00mm lead spacing) but identical electrical ratings. These include UPM2G2R2MPD, UVZ2G2R2MPD, and SEK2R2M400ST. These parts occupy more board space but offer improved ripple current handling or extended lifetime.

Parametric Equivalents (Same Electrical Ratings, Identical Footprint): Parts with matching capacitance, voltage, tolerance, and physical dimensions but different thermal lifetime or ripple current specifications. These include 400PX2.2MEFC8X11.5 and EKMG401ELL2R2MHB5D.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Footprint Replacement with Extended Lifetime: The 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 and 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 from Rubycon are preferred substitutes. Both maintain identical physical dimensions and lead spacing while providing 15000 hours lifetime at 105°C, a 15-fold improvement over the UVY2G2R2MPD. Both are Active products with ROHS3 compliance.

For Active Product Status with Same Footprint: MAL214252286E3 and MAL214272286E3 from Vishay are Active products with identical case dimensions and lead spacing. These provide 2500 hours lifetime at 105°C with ROHS3 compliance.

For Board Space Constraints: When footprint must remain 0.138" lead spacing and 0.315" diameter, 400PX2.2MEFC8X11.5 from Rubycon is an Active alternative with identical physical dimensions and 1000 hours lifetime.

For Larger Footprint Tolerance: UVZ2G2R2MPD from Nichicon accepts larger case dimensions (0.394" diameter, 5.00mm lead spacing) and provides 2000 hours lifetime. SEK2R2M400ST from Cornell Dubilier offers similar dimensions with 2000 hours lifetime and is currently Active.

Avoid: UPM2G2R2MPD and EKMG401ELL2R2MHB5D are classified as Obsolete and should not be selected for new applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 as a direct replacement for UVY2G2R2MPD?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical lead spacing (0.138" / 4.60mm), case diameter (0.315" / 8.00mm), height (0.512" / 13.00mm), capacitance (2.2 µF), voltage rating (400 V), tolerance (±20%), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C). The 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 is a direct footprint equivalent with superior thermal lifetime (15000 hours vs. 1000 hours at 105°C).

Q: What is the difference between MAL214252286E3 and MAL214272286E3?

A: Both parts are from Vishay's 142 RHS series with identical electrical and physical specifications: 2.2 µF, 400 V, ±20% tolerance, 2500 hours lifetime at 105°C, and matching case dimensions (0.315" diameter, 0.512" height). The primary difference is packaging: MAL214252286E3 is supplied in Bulk, while MAL214272286E3 is supplied in Tape & Box (TB).

Q: Can I use UVZ2G2R2MPD if my PCB layout has larger pad spacing?

A: Yes, if your design accommodates 0.197" (5.00mm) lead spacing and 0.394" (10.00mm) case diameter. UVZ2G2R2MPD is electrically equivalent with 2.2 µF, 400 V, ±20% tolerance, and -40°C ~ 105°C operating range. It provides 2000 hours lifetime at 105°C and is ROHS3 compliant.

Q: Why is UPM2G2R2MPD listed as a substitute if it is Obsolete?

A: UPM2G2R2MPD is included in the cross-reference data as a known equivalent part. However, it is classified as Obsolete and should not be selected for new designs. Active alternatives with superior or equivalent specifications are available.

Q: What does "Not For New Designs" mean for the UVY2G2R2MPD?

A: This status indicates the part is in end-of-life phase and Nichicon does not recommend its use in new product development. Existing inventory may be available, but long-term supply is not guaranteed. Active alternatives should be selected for new applications.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification, matching the UVY2G2R2MPD compliance status.

Q: Which substitute offers the best thermal performance?

A: The 400LLE2.2MEFC8X11.5 and 400LLE2R2MEFC8X11.5 from Rubycon both provide 15000 hours lifetime at 105°C, the highest rating among all listed substitutes. Both maintain identical physical dimensions to the UVY2G2R2MPD.
