Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LPX471M200C3P3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 470 µF
• Voltage Rating: 200 V
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Polarization: Polar
• Package Type: Radial, Can - Snap-In
• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Lead Spacing: 0.394" (10.00mm)

Performance Variation Parameters: Substitute parts may differ in ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance), lifetime rating at temperature, ripple current specifications, physical dimensions (diameter and height), and maximum operating temperature, provided the mandatory parameters remain constant.

Three substitute parts meet the mandatory matching criteria:

1. 380LX471M200J022 (CDE) — Upgrade substitute with improved ESR and extended lifetime
2. SLPX471M200A3P3 (CDE) — Similar substitute with reduced physical diameter
3. LGU2D471MELA (Nichicon) — Upgrade substitute with extended temperature range

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

380LX471M200J022 (CDE) is an upgrade substitute offering improved performance characteristics. This part maintains identical electrical specifications (470 µF, 200 V, ±20%) and mechanical compatibility (lead spacing, snap-in package) while providing lower ESR (390 mOhm versus 423 mOhm) and extended lifetime (3000 hours at 85°C versus 1000 hours). The maximum height increases to 1.260" (32.00mm), requiring verification of available board space. This part is ROHS3 compliant and carries higher inventory availability (3660 units).

SLPX471M200A3P3 (CDE) is a similar substitute with identical electrical performance to the main part (423 mOhm ESR, 3000 hours lifetime at 85°C) but with a reduced physical diameter of 0.866" (22.00mm) compared to 0.984" (25.00mm). This compact form factor is suitable for space-constrained applications while maintaining all electrical and mechanical compatibility requirements. The part is ROHS3 compliant with 2680 units in stock.

LGU2D471MELA (Nichicon) is an upgrade substitute from an alternative manufacturer, offering extended maximum operating temperature of 105°C (versus 85°C) and 3000-hour lifetime at this elevated temperature. This part maintains identical lead spacing and snap-in package configuration. ESR is not specified for this part. The operating temperature extension supports applications requiring higher thermal performance. The part is ROHS3 compliant with 1156 units in stock.

All substitute parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, matching the regulatory profile of the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 380LX471M200J022 be used as a direct replacement for the LPX471M200C3P3?

A: Yes, the 380LX471M200J022 is electrically and mechanically compatible. Both parts share identical capacitance (470 µF), voltage rating (200 V), tolerance (±20%), lead spacing (10.00mm), and snap-in package configuration. The primary difference is increased height (1.260" versus 1.181"), which must be verified against available PCB clearance.

Q: What is the advantage of the SLPX471M200A3P3 over the main part?

A: The SLPX471M200A3P3 provides a smaller physical diameter (0.866" versus 0.984") while maintaining identical electrical specifications and lead spacing. This compact form factor is beneficial for applications with space constraints. The part also offers extended lifetime (3000 hours at 85°C versus 1000 hours).

Q: Why would the LGU2D471MELA be selected instead of CDE alternatives?

A: The LGU2D471MELA extends the maximum operating temperature to 105°C with 3000-hour lifetime at this temperature, compared to 85°C maximum for CDE parts. This makes it suitable for high-temperature applications. The part maintains identical lead spacing and snap-in package compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes, all three substitute parts (380LX471M200J022, SLPX471M200A3P3, and LGU2D471MELA) are ROHS3 compliant, matching the regulatory status of the LPX471M200C3P3.

Q: What is the significance of ESR differences between parts?

A: ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) affects ripple current handling and heat generation. The 380LX471M200J022 has lower ESR (390 mOhm) compared to the main part and SLPX471M200A3P3 (both 423 mOhm), resulting in improved ripple current performance. The LGU2D471MELA does not specify ESR.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Electrical interchangeability is confirmed for all three substitutes. Mechanical interchangeability requires verification of physical dimensions, particularly height and diameter, against available PCB space and component clearances.
