MCR03EZPFX4700 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MCR03EZPFX4700 is a 470 Ohms ±1% 0.1W chip resistor in 0603 (1608 Metric) package manufactured by Rohm Semiconductor. This thick film resistor meets automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives from active manufacturers that maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (470 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.1W), package type (0603), composition (thick film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and compliance certifications (AEC-Q200, ROHS3, REACH Unaffected).

Substitute parts are categorized as follows:

Upgrade Substitutes maintain all electrical and mechanical specifications while offering improved product status (active vs. discontinued) or enhanced features (high voltage capability).

Direct Substitutes provide complete parameter equivalence with active product status and standard automotive qualification.

Similar Substitutes meet all core electrical and mechanical requirements but may differ in secondary features (moisture resistance designation) or have lower inventory availability. These remain fully compatible for the specified application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications requiring strict automotive AEC-Q200 compliance, select from the following active parts: KTR03EZPF4700 (Rohm Semiconductor), CRCW0603470RFKEA (Vishay Dale), ERJ-3EKF4700V (Panasonic Electronic Components), or RMCF0603FT470R (Stackpole Electronics Inc). All four maintain complete electrical and mechanical equivalence to the original MCR03EZPFX4700 while offering active product status and full ROHS3 compliance.

KTR03EZPF4700 provides direct manufacturer continuity from Rohm Semiconductor with high voltage capability as an additional feature. CRCW0603470RFKEA and ERJ-3EKF4700V offer the highest inventory availability (193,628 and 224,981 units respectively) and are available in standard distribution packaging formats.

For non-automotive applications where AEC-Q200 certification is not required, CR0603-FX-4700ELF (Bourns Inc.), CRG0603F470R (TE Connectivity), and RC0603FR-07470RL (YAGEO) provide equivalent electrical performance with active product status. These alternatives maintain identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package dimensions, and operating temperature specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MCR03EZPFX4700 be replaced with KTR03EZPF4700?

A: Yes. KTR03EZPF4700 is a direct upgrade substitute from the same manufacturer (Rohm Semiconductor) with identical electrical specifications (470 Ohms ±1%, 0.1W, 0603 package, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C) and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The primary difference is product status: KTR03EZPF4700 is active with 22,374 units in stock, while MCR03EZPFX4700 is discontinued.

Q: Are all substitute parts AEC-Q200 qualified?

A: No. AEC-Q200 qualification is present in KTR03EZPF4700, CRCW0603470RFKEA, CRCW0603470RFKEB, ERJ-3EKF4700V, and RMCF0603FT470R. CR0603-FX-4700ELF, CRG0603F470R, and RC0603FR-07470RL do not carry AEC-Q200 designation. For automotive applications, use only AEC-Q200 qualified alternatives.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between substitutes?

A: All substitutes use the 0603 (1608 Metric) package. Length ranges from 0.061" to 0.063" (1.55mm to 1.60mm), width from 0.031" to 0.033" (0.80mm to 0.85mm), and maximum seated height from 0.020" to 0.022" (0.50mm to 0.55mm). These variations are within standard 0603 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Does packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format affects only handling, storage, and assembly logistics. Electrical specifications, performance, and reliability are identical regardless of whether the part is supplied in Tape & Reel, Cut Tape, or Digi-Reel format.

Q: Which substitute has the highest inventory availability?

A: RMCF0603FT470R (Stackpole Electronics Inc) has the highest inventory with 510,219 units in stock, followed by ERJ-3EKF4700V (Panasonic) with 224,981 units and CRCW0603470RFKEA (Vishay Dale) with 193,628 units.

Q: Can CR0603-FX-4700ELF be used in automotive applications?

A: CR0603-FX-4700ELF meets all electrical and mechanical specifications (470 Ohms ±1%, 0.1W, 0603 package, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C) but lacks AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Use only in non-automotive applications or where automotive qualification is not a design requirement.
