Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EEE-2AA4R7UP is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 4.7 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 100 V (minimum requirement)
• Tolerance: ±20% (electrical performance window)
• Package type: Radial, Can - SMD (physical and electrical interface)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount (assembly compatibility)
• Physical dimensions: 0.315" diameter, land size 0.327" x 0.327" (PCB footprint compatibility)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C (thermal envelope)
• Lifetime rating: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C (reliability specification)

The substitute part UUR2A4R7MCL1GS from Nichicon meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The UUR2A4R7MCL1GS from Nichicon is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete EEE-2AA4R7UP. Both components share identical electrical specifications (4.7 µF, 100 V, ±20%, 2000 Hrs @ 85°C) and are housed in the same surface mount radial can package with matching PCB footprints.

Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage processes. The maximum height difference of 0.012" (0.30mm) between the two parts is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect mechanical clearance or electrical performance.

The ripple current specifications of the Nichicon substitute are lower than the original Panasonic part. Component selection should account for actual circuit ripple current requirements to ensure the substitute meets application demands.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the UUR2A4R7MCL1GS replace the EEE-2AA4R7UP in all applications?

A: The UUR2A4R7MCL1GS is electrically and mechanically compatible with the EEE-2AA4R7UP. Substitution is valid when circuit ripple current requirements do not exceed 40 mA @ 120 Hz or 66.8 mA @ 10 kHz.

Q: What is the significance of the height difference between these parts?

A: The EEE-2AA4R7UP has a maximum seated height of 0.244" (6.20mm), while the UUR2A4R7MCL1GS measures 0.256" (6.50mm). This 0.012" (0.30mm) difference is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect component placement or clearance in typical surface mount applications.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: The EEE-2AA4R7UP carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The UUR2A4R7MCL1GS is specified for general purpose applications. Automotive system requirements should be evaluated against the substitute part's actual application rating and compliance documentation.

Q: What packaging formats are available for the substitute part?

A: The UUR2A4R7MCL1GS is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. The original EEE-2AA4R7UP packaging format is not specified in the provided data.

Q: Are there any moisture sensitivity or storage considerations?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard component storage and handling practices apply to both the original and substitute parts.
