Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 50MU473MZ22012 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on the following substitution criteria:

Matching Parameters (Substitution Basis):

• Capacitance: 0.047 µF (identical)
• Tolerance: ±20% (identical)
• Dielectric Material: Acrylic, Metallized (identical)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (identical)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W, 0.047" height (identical)
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C (identical)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (identical)
• Series: PMLCAP®, MU (identical)
• Termination: Solder Pads (identical)
• Applications: DC Link, DC Filtering (identical)

Differing Parameter (Upgrade Characteristic):

• Voltage Rating - DC: 50V (versus 35V in main part)

The substitute part maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications while providing increased voltage headroom. This relationship permits direct substitution in applications where the 35V rating is adequate, as the higher-rated component operates within the same physical envelope and electrical performance window.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 35MU473MZ22012 and 50MU473MZ22012 maintain Active product status with identical compliance certifications (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected). Selection between these parts depends on circuit voltage requirements:

Use 35MU473MZ22012 when the application operates at or below 35V DC and inventory availability is prioritized.

Use 50MU473MZ22012 when the application requires voltage margin above 35V DC or when the primary part is unavailable. The 50V rating provides additional design headroom within the same physical and electrical performance envelope.

Both parts are suitable for DC link and DC filtering applications across the specified operating temperature range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 50MU473MZ22012 directly replace the 35MU473MZ22012 in my circuit?

A: Yes. The 50MU473MZ22012 maintains identical capacitance (0.047 µF), tolerance (±20%), dielectric material, package dimensions, and operating temperature range. The higher voltage rating (50V versus 35V) does not affect compatibility in applications designed for 35V operation.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The sole difference is the DC voltage rating: 35V for the 35MU473MZ22012 and 50V for the 50MU473MZ22012. All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are both parts available in the same package?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) surface mount package with identical physical dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W, 0.047" maximum height) and solder pad termination.

Q: Do these parts have the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, with identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 3 (168 Hours).

Q: Which part should I specify for new designs?

A: Specify based on your circuit's maximum operating voltage. If the application operates below 35V DC, either part is acceptable. If voltage margin is desired or if the 35V part is unavailable, specify the 50MU473MZ22012.
