Is there a pin-compatible replacement for VP1C221M0605?

No confirmed pin-compatible replacement with the exact 6.3mm x 5.4mm dimensions was identified. However, several parts exist with a compatible 6.3mm diameter footprint but a greater height, which may work if your design has enough vertical space.

What risks should I check before replacing VP1C221M0605?

Before replacing, you must check the physical package dimensions. The main risk is that substitutes are taller or have a larger footprint. Also verify secondary electrical parameters like ESR and ripple current rating to ensure they meet your application's needs.

VP1C221M0605 Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | HONORSAFE

AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

No exact package match found. Alternatives are taller or have a different footprint.

Electrical risklow

Candidates have matching or higher voltage ratings, which is generally safe.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, drop-in replacement with the exact same 6.3x5.4mm package was found. The closest alternatives are taller and require mechanical verification.

Best replacement path

Consider VT220UF25V167RV160 or XT220UF16V90RV0107. They share the same 6.3mm diameter but are taller (7.7mm), requiring a vertical clearance check.

Main risk

The primary risk is physical incompatibility. Most alternatives are either taller or have a larger footprint, requiring board-level verification or redesign.

Recommended alternatives

A potential form-fit-function alternative with a higher voltage rating but increased height.

Questions & answers

The best alternatives are likely VT220UF25V167RV160 (25V) or XT220UF16V90RV0107 (16V). Both are 220µF and share the same 6.3mm diameter, but are taller (7.7mm vs 5.4mm), so you must verify vertical clearance on your PCB.
