Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ECW-H8472RJV are identified based on strict parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic requires exact matching of the following parameters:

• Capacitance value: 4700 pF
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Voltage rating: 800V DC
• Dielectric type: Polypropylene (PP), Metallized
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 105°C
• Mounting configuration: Through Hole, Radial
• Lead spacing: 0.591" (15.00mm)
• Termination style: PC Pins
• Compliance certifications: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as direct parametric equivalents and may be substituted without circuit redesign or performance degradation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ECW-H8472RJV and ECW-H8472JV are active production parts from Panasonic Electronic Components with identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability and lead time requirements. The ECW-H8472JV currently maintains higher inventory levels (1748 pcs) compared to the ECW-H8472RJV (796 pcs), making it a viable alternative for applications requiring expedited procurement. Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected requirements for regulated markets.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ECW-H8472JV be used as a direct replacement for ECW-H8472RJV?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical capacitance (4700 pF), voltage rating (800V DC), tolerance (±5%), dielectric material (Polypropylene metallized), operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C), and mechanical dimensions. They are interchangeable in circuit applications without modification.

Q: Are there any differences in the physical package between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical dimensions (18.00mm L x 6.00mm W), seated height (14.50mm maximum), and lead spacing (15.00mm). PCB layout and mounting procedures remain unchanged.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both ECW-H8472RJV and ECW-H8472JV are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting equivalent regulatory requirements for restricted substance use.

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers?

A: The part numbers differ only in the suffix designation (RJV versus JV). This designation reflects internal Panasonic manufacturing or packaging variations but does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Either part is suitable for new designs. Selection may be based on current inventory availability and supplier lead times. Both maintain active production status with equivalent long-term availability.
