Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the UVR2D470MHD1TO is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

Capacitance: 47 µF (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
Voltage Rating: 200 V minimum (equal or higher voltage acceptable)
Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00 mm) (exact match required for PCB compatibility)
Case Diameter: 0.492" (12.50 mm) (exact match required for mechanical fit)
Mounting Type: Through Hole, Radial (exact match required)
Polarization: Polar (exact match required)

Performance Enhancement Parameters:

Lifetime @ Temperature: Substitutes may offer extended lifetime ratings (10000 Hrs @ 105°C or 12000 Hrs @ 105°C) providing improved reliability
Operating Temperature Range: Substitutes may extend upper temperature limit from 85°C to 105°C
Ripple Current Ratings: Substitutes may offer higher ripple current capacity at both low and high frequencies

Compliance Parameters:

RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (maintained across all substitutes)
Product Status: Active substitutes are preferred over "Not For New Designs" classifications

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories: Direct Manufacturer Equivalents (same voltage, improved lifetime), Upgrade Parts (same voltage with enhanced performance), and Parametric Equivalents (higher voltage rating with same or similar performance).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Same Voltage, Same Lifetime): UVK2D470MHD1TO is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical performance and mechanical dimensions. Both parts carry "Not For New Designs" status, making this suitable only for exact legacy replacements where no performance improvement is required.

For Improved Reliability (Same Voltage, Extended Lifetime): UCY2D470MHD3TO and UCS2D470MHD1TO both maintain the 200 V rating while extending lifetime to 12000 Hrs @ 105°C and 10000 Hrs @ 105°C respectively, with expanded operating temperature range to 105°C. Both are Active products. UCS2D470MHD1TO offers 10000 Hrs @ 105°C with ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected status. UCY2D470MHD3TO provides the longest lifetime (12000 Hrs @ 105°C) but carries REACH Affected status.

For Higher Voltage Margin (250 V Rating): UCS2E470MHD1TO and UCY2E470MHD3TO provide 250 V rating with extended lifetime. UCS2E470MHD1TO offers 10000 Hrs @ 105°C with REACH Unaffected status. UCY2E470MHD3TO provides 12000 Hrs @ 105°C but carries REACH Affected status. UVK2E470MHD1TO maintains the original 2000 Hrs @ 85°C lifetime with 250 V rating and "Not For New Designs" status.

Mechanical Compatibility Note: UCY series parts (UCY2D470MHD3TO, UCY2E470MHD3TO) have a slightly reduced seated height of 0.846" (21.50 mm) compared to the original 0.866" (22.00 mm). This reduction is within typical PCB layout tolerances but should be verified for space-constrained applications.

Ripple Current Enhancement: All substitute parts except UVK series offer doubled ripple current capacity: 490 mA @ 120 Hz and 980 mA @ 100 kHz compared to the original 270 mA @ 120 Hz and 432 mA @ 10 kHz.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use UCY2D470MHD3TO as a direct drop-in replacement for UVR2D470MHD1TO? A: Yes, mechanically and electrically. The UCY2D470MHD3TO maintains identical capacitance (47 µF), tolerance (±20%), voltage rating (200 V), lead spacing (5.00 mm), and case diameter (12.50 mm). The seated height is 0.846" versus the original 0.866", a 0.02" reduction that is typically accommodated in standard PCB layouts. Electrically, it provides superior performance with 12000 Hrs @ 105°C lifetime versus 2000 Hrs @ 85°C.

Q: What is the difference between UCS2D470MHD1TO and UCY2D470MHD3TO? A: Both maintain 47 µF, 200 V specifications with extended lifetime and 105°C upper temperature limit. UCS2D470MHD1TO provides 10000 Hrs @ 105°C with REACH Unaffected status. UCY2D470MHD3TO provides 12000 Hrs @ 105°C but carries REACH Affected status. Both offer identical ripple current ratings (490 mA @ 120 Hz, 980 mA @ 100 kHz) and identical mechanical dimensions.

Q: Should I use a 250 V rated part instead of 200 V? A: Higher voltage rating provides additional safety margin in applications with voltage transients or overvoltage conditions. UCS2E470MHD1TO (250 V, 10000 Hrs @ 105°C, REACH Unaffected) and UCY2E470MHD3TO (250 V, 12000 Hrs @ 105°C, REACH Affected) are suitable if circuit design permits the higher voltage rating. The 250 V parts occupy identical physical space and maintain all other electrical characteristics.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes, all listed substitute parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status. However, REACH status varies: UCS series parts are REACH Unaffected, while UCY series parts are REACH Affected. Verify REACH compliance requirements for your specific application and region.

Q: What does "Not For New Designs" mean? A: This designation indicates the part has been superseded in Nichicon's active product line. The original UVR2D470MHD1TO and UVK series parts carry this status. For new designs, select from Active products: UCS or UCY series substitutes.

Q: Can I mix UVR2D470MHD1TO with substitute parts on the same PCB? A: Yes, all listed parts are mechanically and electrically compatible for parallel or independent circuit applications. The slight height difference in UCY parts (0.02" shorter) does not affect functionality or reliability when used alongside other variants.
