Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent (Same Voltage, Same Lifetime): UVZ1E331MPD (Bulk packaging) is mechanically and electrically equivalent to the UVZ1E331MPD1TD, with the only difference being packaging format. This part maintains identical electrical specifications and is suitable for direct replacement in applications where bulk packaging is acceptable.

Voltage Upgrade Options (25 V to 35 V): UVZ1V331MPD1TD, UVY1V331MPD1TD, and UKA1V331MPD1TD all provide 35 V rating while maintaining 330 µF capacitance and 2000-hour lifetime. These are electrically compatible substitutes that provide improved voltage margin. UKA1V331MPD1TD is specified for audio applications but maintains general-purpose compatibility.

Performance Upgrade (Extended Lifetime at 25 V): UPW1E331MPD1TD extends lifetime to 5000 hours at 105°C while maintaining 25 V rating and 330 µF capacitance. This part offers improved reliability for applications requiring extended operational life. Ripple current capability increases to 494 mA at 120 Hz.

Parametric Equivalent (25 V, 2000 Hrs): UPS1E331MPD1TD provides identical voltage and lifetime specifications with improved ripple current handling (426 mA at 120 Hz).

Active Product Status: URZ1V331MPD1TD is the only Nichicon substitute with Active product status, offering 35 V rating and 1000-hour lifetime. This part is recommended for new procurement where extended product lifecycle is required.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives (Würth Elektronik): 860080475013 (WCAP-ATLI series, 5000 Hrs) and 860160475020 (WCAP-ATLL series, 7000 Hrs) are active Würth Elektronik products maintaining identical mechanical dimensions and 25 V rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 35 V rated capacitor in place of the 25 V UVZ1E331MPD1TD? A: Yes. A higher voltage rating is electrically compatible and provides improved voltage margin. UVZ1V331MPD1TD, UVY1V331MPD1TD, UKA1V331MPD1TD, and URZ1V331MPD1TD all provide 35 V rating with identical 330 µF capacitance and mechanical dimensions.

Q: What is the difference between UVZ1E331MPD and UVZ1E331MPD1TD? A: Both parts are electrically identical 330 µF, 25 V capacitors with 2000-hour lifetime. The primary difference is packaging: UVZ1E331MPD is supplied in Bulk format, while UVZ1E331MPD1TD is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. The UVZ1E331MPD has a slightly shorter seated height of 12.50 mm compared to 14.00 mm for the taped version.

Q: Are Würth Elektronik parts 860080475013 and 860160475020 direct replacements? A: Yes, both maintain identical mechanical dimensions (5.00 mm lead spacing, 10.00 mm diameter, 14.00 mm height) and 25 V rating. Both are ROHS3 compliant and active products. The 860160475020 offers extended lifetime (7000 hours) compared to 860080475013 (5000 hours).

Q: Why is URZ1V331MPD1TD recommended despite having only 1000-hour lifetime? A: URZ1V331MPD1TD is the only Nichicon substitute with Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The 1000-hour lifetime is lower than the original part, but the active status makes it suitable for new procurement where extended product lifecycle is critical.

Q: Can I substitute UPW1E331MPD1TD for the original UVZ1E331MPD1TD? A: Yes. UPW1E331MPD1TD maintains identical 25 V rating and 330 µF capacitance with improved 5000-hour lifetime (compared to 2000 hours). Mechanical dimensions are identical, making it a direct mechanical and electrical upgrade.

Q: What does "Not For New Designs" status mean? A: This designation indicates the part has been superseded in the manufacturer's product line. While the part remains available in inventory, it is not recommended for new product development. For legacy system maintenance, these parts remain suitable.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, matching the original UVZ1E331MPD1TD specification.

Q: What is the significance of lead spacing and case diameter in substitution? A: Lead spacing (5.00 mm) and case diameter (10.00 mm) determine PCB footprint compatibility. All listed substitutes maintain these dimensions, ensuring direct mechanical fit without PCB redesign.
