Substitute Categories:
Upgrade substitutes (VJ1206A470JXEAC, VJ1206A470JXEMC) provide higher voltage rating (500V) and tighter tolerance (±5%) while maintaining identical capacitance, package, and temperature coefficient. These parts are direct functional upgrades suitable for applications requiring enhanced voltage margin.
Direct equivalent (C1206C470K2GAC7800) from KEMET maintains the same voltage rating (200V) and tolerance (±10%) with identical capacitance and package specifications, representing a cross-manufacturer alternative.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
All listed substitute parts maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring continued availability and regulatory alignment.
VJ1206A470JXEAC and VJ1206A470JXEMC are functionally superior upgrades from the same manufacturer, offering 500V voltage rating and ±5% tolerance. These parts are suitable for applications where higher voltage margin or tighter capacitance tolerance is beneficial, with no mechanical or thermal incompatibilities.
C1206C470K2GAC7800 from KEMET provides electrical and mechanical equivalence at the original 200V rating and ±10% tolerance. This cross-manufacturer option is suitable for applications where supply diversification or inventory management requires alternative sourcing while maintaining identical electrical performance.
The operating temperature range of C1206C470K2GAC7800 extends to 125°C maximum, which is within the original specification range of 150°C. Applications requiring operation above 125°C should use Vishay Vitramon parts to ensure full temperature range coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can VJ1206A470JXEAC or VJ1206A470JXEMC be used as direct replacements for VJ1206A470KXCMP?
A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical capacitance (47 pF), package (1206), temperature coefficient (C0G/NP0), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). The higher voltage rating (500V) and tighter tolerance (±5%) represent functional improvements with no compatibility issues.
Q: Is C1206C470K2GAC7800 mechanically compatible with the original part?
A: Yes. Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package with identical length (0.126" / 3.20mm) and width (0.063" / 1.60mm). Thickness differs (0.035" vs. 0.067"), but this does not affect PCB assembly compatibility for surface mount applications.
Q: What is the significance of the ±5% tolerance in the upgrade parts?
A: The upgrade parts (VJ1206A470JXEAC, VJ1206A470JXEMC) provide tighter capacitance tolerance compared to the original ±10%. This results in more precise capacitance values across production batches, beneficial for applications with strict frequency or impedance requirements.
Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?
A: Yes. VJ1206A470KXCMP, VJ1206A470JXEAC, VJ1206A470JXEMC, and C1206C470K2GAC7800 are all ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), meeting environmental and regulatory requirements.
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature for each part?
A: VJ1206A470KXCMP, VJ1206A470JXEAC, and VJ1206A470JXEMC operate to 150°C. C1206C470K2GAC7800 operates to 125°C. For applications requiring full 150°C operation, use Vishay Vitramon parts.
