The NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD is the direct equivalent substitute for the NLCV25T-R47M-PFRD. Both components are manufactured by TDK Corporation and share identical electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications.

The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the NLCV25T-R47M-PFRD is designated "Not For New Designs," while the NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD maintains "Active" status. This indicates that TDK continues to support, manufacture, and supply the NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD variant.

Both parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance. The substitute part offers superior supply chain continuity with 1920 pieces currently in stock compared to 794 pieces of the original part number.

For new designs or design revisions, the NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD is the appropriate selection. For existing designs currently using the NLCV25T-R47M-PFRD, direct substitution with the NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD is electrically and mechanically compatible without circuit modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD be used as a direct replacement for the NLCV25T-R47M-PFRD in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in electrical performance (470 nH inductance, 1.34 A current rating, 96 mOhm DCR), mechanical dimensions (1008 package, 2.50 mm x 2.00 mm x 1.90 mm), and environmental specifications (-40°C ~ 125°C operating range). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on the NLCV25T-R47M-PFRD?

A: This designation indicates that TDK has transitioned this specific series variant to end-of-life status and is no longer recommending it for new product development. The NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD is the active replacement series and should be used for all new designs.

Q: Are both parts qualified to the same automotive standards?

A: Yes. Both the NLCV25T-R47M-PFRD and NLCV25T-R47M-EFRD carry AEC-Q200 qualification, confirming suitability for automotive applications across the specified operating temperature range.

Q: Do the parts have identical package dimensions and mounting compatibility?

A: Yes. Both components use the 1008 (2520 Metric) surface mount package with identical physical dimensions of 0.098" L x 0.079" W (2.50 mm x 2.00 mm) and maximum seated height of 0.075" (1.90 mm). PCB footprints and reflow profiles are identical.

Q: What is the difference between the NLCV-PFD and NLCV-EFD series designations?

A: The series designation reflects TDK's internal product line classification. The NLCV-EFD series represents the current active production line, while NLCV-PFD is a legacy series. Despite different series names, the electrical and mechanical specifications for these specific part numbers are equivalent.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity), and are unaffected by REACH regulations. Regulatory and environmental compliance is identical.
