476BPS100M Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The 476BPS100M is a 47 µF, 100 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Cornell Dubilier / Illinois Capacitor in the BPS series. This radial, through-hole component is designed for audio applications and features a bi-polar configuration with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 85°C. The part is currently active and available in inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are met, allowing for component interchangeability in applications where the original part becomes unavailable, discontinued, or when alternative sourcing is required.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 476BPS100M is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 47 µF
• Voltage rating: 100 V
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Lifetime specification: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Polarization: Bi-Polar

Mechanical Parameters:

• Lead spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm)
• Case diameter: 0.492" (12.50mm)
• Height (seated): 0.866" (22.00mm)
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Package type: Radial, Can

The substitute part UVP2A470MHD meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria, enabling direct replacement in circuit applications where the 476BPS100M is specified.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

476BPS100M (Cornell Dubilier / Illinois Capacitor)

The 476BPS100M is the primary component specification and maintains active product status. This part is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, making it suitable for new designs and production applications. The part carries full compliance documentation and is available in current inventory.

UVP2A470MHD (Nichicon)

The UVP2A470MHD is designated as "Not For New Designs" and carries REACH affected status. This substitute part meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence requirements and is suitable for legacy system maintenance, repair, and field replacement applications where the original 476BPS100M is unavailable. The UVP2A470MHD is ROHS3 compliant and available in higher inventory quantities.

Selection between these parts should be based on application phase: new designs should specify the 476BPS100M; existing systems and repair scenarios may utilize the UVP2A470MHD where supply constraints exist.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the UVP2A470MHD directly replace the 476BPS100M in existing circuits?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical ratings (47 µF, 100 V, ±20% tolerance, 2000 Hrs @ 85°C) and mechanical dimensions (lead spacing, case diameter, height, through-hole mounting). Direct substitution is electrically and mechanically compatible.

Q: What is the difference in ripple current specifications between these parts?

A: At 120 Hz, both parts support 240 mA ripple current. At higher frequencies, the UVP2A470MHD supports 480 mA @ 10 kHz, while the 476BPS100M supports 376.8 mA @ 50 kHz. Application frequency requirements determine which specification is relevant.

Q: Why is the UVP2A470MHD marked "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the part is in mature or declining production status at the manufacturer. New product designs should specify the 476BPS100M. The UVP2A470MHD remains suitable for field replacement and legacy system support.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The 476BPS100M is REACH unaffected, while the UVP2A470MHD is REACH affected. For applications subject to REACH regulations, the 476BPS100M is the preferred specification.

Q: Do these parts have identical ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) values?

A: The 476BPS100M specifies 3.527 Ohm @ 120 Hz. The UVP2A470MHD does not provide an ESR specification in available documentation. Applications with strict ESR requirements should reference the 476BPS100M datasheet.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are housed in identical radial, can packages with 0.492" (12.50mm) diameter, 0.866" (22.00mm) seated height, and 0.197" (5.00mm) lead spacing. PCB layout and mechanical clearance requirements are identical.
