EEE-FP1C470AV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EEE-FP1C470AV is a 47 µF, 16 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in surface mount radial can package, manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. This component is rated for automotive applications and high-temperature reflow processes, with AEC-Q200 qualification and a 2000-hour lifetime at 105°C. The part is currently active in production with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when design requirements allow tolerance in electrical performance parameters while maintaining functional equivalence in circuit applications. The primary substitute for EEE-FP1C470AV is drawn from Panasonic's FP and FK series, which share identical capacitance, voltage rating, physical dimensions, and thermal specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the EEE-FP1C470AV is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

• Capacitance value: 47 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 16 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.248" Dia (6.30 mm), Height 0.252" (6.40 mm), Land size 0.260" x 0.260" (6.60 x 6.60 mm)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount, Radial Can package
• Polarization: Polar
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 105°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime specification: 2000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)
• Compliance: AEC-Q200, RoHS3, MSL 1

The EEE-FK1C470AV meets all substitution criteria. While ESR and ripple current specifications differ from the main part, these variations remain within acceptable ranges for the 47 µF / 16 V capacitor category and do not affect functional compatibility in standard circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both EEE-FP1C470AV and EEE-FK1C470AV are active production parts with full AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and RoHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts is based on availability and ESR/ripple current performance requirements specific to the application circuit.

The EEE-FP1C470AV features lower ESR (260 mOhm @ 100 kHz) and higher ripple current ratings (300 mA @ 100 kHz), making it suitable for applications requiring minimal impedance and high AC current handling. The EEE-FK1C470AV, with higher ESR (360 mOhm @ 100 kHz) and lower ripple current ratings (240 mA @ 100 kHz), remains functionally equivalent for standard filtering and energy storage applications within the specified voltage and capacitance range.

Both parts maintain identical thermal performance (2000 Hrs @ 105°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C), and physical footprint, ensuring direct PCB compatibility without layout modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EEE-FK1C470AV be used as a direct replacement for EEE-FP1C470AV?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (47 µF), voltage rating (16 V), tolerance (±20%), physical dimensions, thermal lifetime, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications. The parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable for standard circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference in ESR between these parts?

A: The EEE-FP1C470AV has an ESR of 260 mOhm @ 100 kHz, while the EEE-FK1C470AV has an ESR of 360 mOhm @ 100 kHz. This 100 mOhm difference reflects variations within the FP and FK series design parameters. For applications sensitive to impedance, the lower ESR of the FP series may be preferred.

Q: Are the ripple current ratings different?

A: Yes. The EEE-FP1C470AV supports 300 mA @ 100 kHz and 195 mA @ 120 Hz. The EEE-FK1C470AV supports 240 mA @ 100 kHz and 156 mA @ 120 Hz. Applications requiring maximum ripple current handling should specify the FP series.

Q: Do these parts have the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical physical dimensions (0.248" Dia / 6.30 mm), height (0.252" / 6.40 mm), and surface mount land size (0.260" x 0.260" / 6.60 x 6.60 mm). No PCB layout changes are required for substitution.

Q: Are both parts AEC-Q200 qualified?

A: Yes. Both EEE-FP1C470AV and EEE-FK1C470AV carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and are suitable for automotive and high-temperature reflow applications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
