Is there a pin-compatible replacement for 189RV0007?

No, a pin-compatible, drop-in replacement for 189RV0007 was not identified. All reviewed candidates with similar electrical specifications have a different physical package size.

What risks should I check before replacing 189RV0007?

The main risk is the physical package mismatch; you must redesign your PCB layout to accommodate a larger capacitor. Also, verify that the candidate's ESR and ripple current ratings meet your application's needs.

189RV0007 Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | KNSCHA

Finding a substitute for the KNSCHA 189RV0007, a 68µF 25V SMD capacitor, is challenging due to its compact 5mm package. While functional alternatives exist, none are direct drop-in replacements.

AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

All viable candidates have a larger diameter (6.3mm vs 5mm) and will not fit the existing layout.

Electrical risklow

Key parameters like capacitance and temperature match, but ESR and ripple current must be verified.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, drop-in replacement for 189RV0007 was found among the candidates reviewed. All viable options have different package sizes.

Best replacement path

The closest functional alternatives, like ROQANG RVT1H680M0607, offer similar electrical performance but require a larger PCB footprint, necessitating a board redesign.

Main risk

The primary risk is package mismatch. No candidates fit the target's 5mm x 5.7mm PCB footprint, making them incompatible without a board redesign.

Recommended alternatives

A functional alternative with a higher voltage rating but a larger package that is not a drop-in replacement.
