Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the TVX2A471MCD is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 470 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 100 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Axial, Can (exact match required)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C (minimum requirement)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: the 477TTA100M (Cornell Dubilier / Illinois Capacitor) and the MAL202119471E3 (Vishay Beyschlag/Draloric/BC Components). Both are active products with full regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts are active products with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with current manufacturing standards.

The 477TTA100M offers dimensional compatibility with the original TVX2A471MCD, maintaining the same 16.00 mm diameter while reducing axial length by 2.50 mm. This substitute is suitable for applications where board space optimization is acceptable within the original design envelope.

The MAL202119471E3 provides extended lifetime performance at 8000 hours versus the original 2000-hour rating, with lower ESR characteristics (310 mOhm). Physical dimensions differ slightly (18.00 mm diameter, 30.00 mm length), requiring verification of PCB layout compatibility before implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 477TTA100M be used as a direct replacement for the TVX2A471MCD?

A: Yes. The 477TTA100M meets all electrical specifications (470 µF, 100 V, ±20% tolerance) and maintains compatible through-hole axial package configuration. The reduced axial length (31.00 mm vs. 34.60 mm) is within acceptable tolerance for most PCB layouts.

Q: What is the primary difference between the two substitute options?

A: The 477TTA100M maintains closer dimensional alignment to the original part. The MAL202119471E3 offers superior lifetime performance (8000 hours at 85°C versus 2000 hours) and lower ESR, but requires PCB layout verification due to increased diameter (18.00 mm vs. 16.00 mm).

Q: Are both substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 477TTA100M and MAL202119471E3 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing.

Q: Does the change in physical dimensions affect electrical performance?

A: No. Physical dimension variations do not alter the core electrical parameters (capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, or operating temperature range). Dimensional changes only impact PCB layout compatibility and mounting clearance.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for long-term reliability applications?

A: The MAL202119471E3 is recommended for applications requiring extended operational life, offering 8000-hour lifetime at 85°C compared to 2000 hours for both the original part and the 477TTA100M alternative.
