Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPJ2A470MHD6TO is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance value: 47 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage rating: 100 V (minimum requirement)
• Tolerance: ±20% (electrical performance tolerance)
• Polarization: Polar (functional requirement)
• Lead spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) (mechanical compatibility)
• Package type: Radial, Can (form factor compatibility)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (PCB assembly compatibility)

The UPM2A470MHD6TO meets all substitution criteria. Both components share identical electrical specifications for capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and operating temperature range. Physical dimensions and lead spacing are compatible, enabling direct board-level substitution without PCB redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the UPM2A470MHD6TO replace the UPJ2A470MHD6TO in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical capacitance (47 µF), voltage rating (100 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), lead spacing (5.00mm), and through-hole radial package configuration. Direct substitution is possible without PCB modification.

Q: What are the physical differences between these parts?

A: The height dimension differs slightly. The UPJ2A470MHD6TO has a maximum seated height of 0.650" (16.50mm), while the UPM2A470MHD6TO measures 0.669" (17.00mm). Both maintain the same 0.492" diameter (12.50mm) and 5.00mm lead spacing. Verify clearance in confined mounting areas before substitution.

Q: Are there differences in ripple current ratings?

A: Yes. The UPM2A470MHD6TO exhibits higher ripple current capacity: 310 mA @ 120 Hz and 520 mA @ 10 kHz, compared to the UPJ2A470MHD6TO at 239 mA @ 120 Hz and 402 mA @ 10 kHz. The UPM2A470MHD6TO provides superior performance in high-ripple applications.

Q: What is the significance of the product status "Not For New Designs"?

A: This designation indicates the UPJ2A470MHD6TO is in mature or end-of-life phase. The UPM2A470MHD6TO, also marked "Not For New Designs," represents an equivalent alternative from the same manufacturer for applications requiring this specific capacitance and voltage combination.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the UPJ2A470MHD6TO and UPM2A470MHD6TO are ROHS3 compliant. The UPM2A470MHD6TO is REACH affected, while the UPJ2A470MHD6TO is REACH unaffected. Verify REACH compliance requirements for your specific application and region.
