Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the UPW2D470MHD1TO is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Capacitance Value: Must be 47 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: Minimum 200 V (equal or higher acceptable)
• Tolerance: ±20% (standard tolerance for this category)
• Polarization: Polar (required for electrolytic type)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (mechanical compatibility)
• Package Configuration: Radial, Can (physical form factor)
• Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00 mm) (PCB footprint compatibility)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 105°C (functional envelope)

The substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Substitutes (UCS2D470MHD1TO, UCY2D470MHD3TO): Match all critical parameters including 200 V voltage rating. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical compatibility with the original design.

Upgrade Substitute (UCY2V470MHD1TO): Exceeds voltage rating at 350 V while maintaining all other parameters. This part provides enhanced voltage margin and is suitable for applications where higher voltage headroom is beneficial or required.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Pin-for-Pin Compatible)

UCS2D470MHD1TO and UCY2D470MHD3TO are both suitable direct replacements for the UPW2D470MHD1TO. Both parts maintain the 200 V voltage specification and identical lead spacing. The UCS2D470MHD1TO offers 10000 Hrs lifetime at 105°C, while UCY2D470MHD3TO extends this to 12000 Hrs. Both are Active products with ROHS3 compliance. The UCS2D470MHD1TO has a lower seated height (0.846" vs 1.063"), which may provide PCB layout advantages in space-constrained applications.

For Voltage-Upgraded Applications

UCY2V470MHD1TO is specified at 350 V and is suitable where higher voltage margin is required or where circuit design has been updated to accommodate elevated voltage ratings. This part maintains the same 47 µF capacitance and ±20% tolerance while providing 12000 Hrs lifetime. The seated height is 1.043", which is compatible with most legacy PCB layouts designed for the original 1.063" height specification.

Compliance Considerations

All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance. UCY2D470MHD3TO and UCY2V470MHD1TO are marked as REACH Affected, while UCS2D470MHD1TO is REACH Unaffected. Selection should account for supply chain compliance requirements specific to the end application and geographic market.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can UCS2D470MHD1TO be used as a direct replacement for UPW2D470MHD1TO?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical capacitance (47 µF), voltage rating (200 V), tolerance (±20%), lead spacing (5.00 mm), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C). The UCS2D470MHD1TO has a lower seated height (0.846" vs 1.063"), which is compatible with standard PCB layouts.

Q: What is the difference between UCY2D470MHD3TO and UCS2D470MHD1TO?

A: Both are direct electrical equivalents at 200 V, 47 µF. UCY2D470MHD3TO offers extended lifetime (12000 Hrs vs 10000 Hrs at 105°C) and is marked REACH Affected. UCS2D470MHD1TO is REACH Unaffected. Both have identical seated height (0.846").

Q: When should UCY2V470MHD1TO (350 V) be selected instead of the 200 V alternatives?

A: UCY2V470MHD1TO is selected when circuit design requires higher voltage margin, when system voltage specifications have been updated, or when the application benefits from reduced voltage stress on the capacitor. The 350 V rating provides additional safety margin in high-voltage applications.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: Lead spacing is identical (5.00 mm) for all parts, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility. Seated heights vary slightly: UPW2D470MHD1TO (1.063"), UCS2D470MHD1TO (0.846"), UCY2D470MHD3TO (0.846"), and UCY2V470MHD1TO (1.043"). Verify clearance in applications with height constraints.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on the original part?

A: This designation indicates the UPW2D470MHD1TO has been superseded in Nichicon's product portfolio. For new designs, UCS2D470MHD1TO or UCY2D470MHD3TO are the recommended active alternatives. The original part remains available for legacy system support and repairs.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: All parts are ROHS3 compliant. REACH status differs: UCS2D470MHD1TO is REACH Unaffected, while UCY2D470MHD3TO and UCY2V470MHD1TO are REACH Affected. Verify compliance requirements for your specific application and market.
