Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the BF024D0474KAM is determined by strict alignment of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: 0.47 µF (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±10% (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating (DC): 63V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Voltage Rating (AC): 40V minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Dielectric Material: Polyester, Metallized (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Package Type: Radial (exact match required)
• Lead Spacing: 0.200" (5.08mm) (exact match required)
• Termination: PC Pins (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 100°C minimum (equal or wider range acceptable)

The BFC237011474 manufactured by Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components meets all substitution criteria and is classified as an active, in-stock alternative.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The BFC237011474 is a direct functional equivalent to the BF024D0474KAM. All critical electrical parameters—capacitance, tolerance, voltage ratings, and dielectric material—are identical. The mechanical interface, including lead spacing, termination type, and package configuration, is fully compatible with PCB layouts designed for the original component.

The BFC237011474 offers two significant advantages over the obsolete BF024D0474KAM:

• Active Product Status: The BFC237011474 is currently in active production, ensuring long-term supply availability and consistent manufacturing quality.
• Enhanced Compliance: The BFC237011474 is ROHS3 compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in regulated markets.

Selection of the BFC237011474 is appropriate for new designs, production continuity, and retrofit applications where the original BF024D0474KAM is no longer available.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the BFC237011474 be used as a direct replacement for the BF024D0474KAM?

A: Yes. The BFC237011474 meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. Capacitance, tolerance, voltage ratings, dielectric material, lead spacing, and package configuration are identical. PCB layout modifications are not required.

Q: What is the difference in physical dimensions between these parts?

A: The BF024D0474KAM measures 0.295" L × 0.126" W (7.50mm × 3.20mm), while the BFC237011474 measures 0.283" L × 0.138" W (7.20mm × 4.60mm). Both components have identical maximum seated height of 0.315" (8.00mm) and identical lead spacing of 0.200" (5.08mm). These dimensional variations do not affect PCB compatibility or electrical performance.

Q: Why is the BF024D0474KAM classified as obsolete?
