Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LMF316AB7475MLHT is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 4.7 µF
• Voltage Rating: 10V
• Temperature Coefficient: X7R
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount, MLCC
• Physical Dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)
• Thickness (Max): 0.071" (1.80mm)
• Packaging Format: Tape & Reel (TR)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Automotive Rating: AEC-Q200

All substitute parts listed below meet these exact specifications. Substitution is valid across different manufacturer series (M, LMK, MAAS, MCAS) provided all electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical. Product status variations (Active versus Not For New Designs) do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Ongoing Production Support: The MAASL31LAB7475MTNA01 and MCASL31LSB7475MTNA01 are preferred substitutes due to Active product status. Both parts maintain full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the LMF316AB7475MLHT while offering continued manufacturer support and supply availability.

For Legacy System Maintenance: The LMK316B7475MLHT provides direct substitution with identical electrical specifications. Although designated Not For New Designs, this part remains available in inventory and maintains full compatibility with existing designs using the LMF316AB7475MLHT.

Compliance Verification: All substitute parts carry identical AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance status. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) is consistent across all options, eliminating special handling requirements during assembly and storage.

Supply Chain Considerations: Current inventory levels vary across substitute options. The LMF316AB7475MLHT maintains the highest inventory (4352 Pcs), followed by LMK316B7475MLHT (1908 Pcs), MAASL31LAB7475MTNA01 (691 Pcs), and MCASL31LSB7475MTNA01 (689 Pcs). Selection should account for production volume requirements and lead time constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAASL31LAB7475MTNA01 or MCASL31LSB7475MTNA01 be used as direct replacements for LMF316AB7475MLHT in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical capacitance (4.7 µF), voltage rating (10V), temperature coefficient (X7R), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), package dimensions (1206 / 3216 Metric), and all compliance certifications (AEC-Q200, ROHS3, MSL 1). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the M series (LMF316AB7475MLHT, LMK316B7475MLHT) and the MAAS/MCAS series?

A: The primary difference is product status. The M series parts are designated Not For New Designs, while MAAS and MCAS series are Active. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. The MAAS and MCAS series represent current-generation alternatives with ongoing manufacturer support.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these substitute parts?

A: All parts meet identical electrical specifications. The LMK316B7475MLHT is noted to feature Ultra Low ESR, which is an additional performance characteristic not specified for other parts. However, this does not affect basic substitution compatibility for standard SMPS filtering and automotive applications.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in automotive applications?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and are rated for the same operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). They are suitable for automotive and SMPS filtering applications as specified.

Q: What is the significance of Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited)?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard storage and handling procedures apply without special desiccant or humidity control requirements. This specification is identical across all substitute parts.

Q: Are there any differences in packaging or tape format?

A: All parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format with identical physical dimensions (0.126" L x 0.063" W / 3.20mm x 1.60mm) and maximum thickness (0.071" / 1.80mm). Reel specifications and tape configuration are compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for new design work?

A: MAASL31LAB7475MTNA01 or MCASL31LSB7475MTNA01 are recommended for new designs due to Active product status and continued manufacturer support. Both parts provide identical functionality with assured long-term availability.
