Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the SLP472M025A1P3 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Capacitance value: 4700 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 25 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
• Lifetime specification: 3000 Hrs @ 105°C (exact match required)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: Radial, Can - Snap-In (exact match required)
• Lead spacing: 0.394" (10.00mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 compliance status (required for equivalent substitution)
• Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

The substitute part 381LX472M025H012 meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. Minor variations in physical height (0.984" vs. 1.063") and ripple current ratings at high frequency (2.5 A vs. 2.3 A @ 20 kHz) do not preclude substitution when circuit board layout accommodates the dimensional tolerance and ripple current specification remains within application requirements.

Primary Substitute: 381LX472M025H012

The 381LX472M025H012 is a direct electrical equivalent to the SLP472M025A1P3. Both components are manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics and maintain Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance. The substitute part satisfies all critical electrical parameters: identical capacitance (4700 µF), voltage rating (25 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C), and thermal lifetime specification (3000 Hrs @ 105°C).

Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through matching lead spacing (10.00mm), package type (Radial, Can - Snap-In), and mounting configuration (Through Hole). The dimensional variation in seated height (1.063" vs. 0.984") represents a 2.00mm increase and must be evaluated against available circuit board clearance in the target application.

The ripple current specification at high frequency shows a minor reduction (2.3 A vs. 2.5 A @ 20 kHz). This variation requires confirmation that the application's ripple current demand does not exceed 2.3 A at 20 kHz operating frequency.

Both parts carry identical compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99, HTSUS 8532.22.0040), confirming regulatory equivalence for industrial and commercial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 381LX472M025H012 be used as a direct replacement for the SLP472M025A1P3?

A: Yes, the 381LX472M025H012 is electrically and mechanically equivalent for general-purpose applications. Both parts share identical capacitance (4700 µF), voltage rating (25 V), tolerance (±20%), temperature range (-40°C ~ 105°C), and thermal lifetime (3000 Hrs @ 105°C). Verify that circuit board layout accommodates the 1.063" maximum seated height and that application ripple current at 20 kHz does not exceed 2.3 A.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are physical height (SLP472M025A1P3: 0.984" vs. 381LX472M025H012: 1.063") and ripple current rating at 20 kHz (2.5 A vs. 2.3 A respectively). Electrical performance, voltage rating, capacitance, and thermal specifications are identical.
