Is there a pin-compatible replacement for GRM155R61E475ME15D?

Yes, several parts share the same 0402 package and pin configuration. However, none are electrically equivalent due to having a lower voltage rating than the original 25V part. They are not drop-in replacements.

What risks should I check before replacing GRM155R61E475ME15D?

The main risk is voltage derating. If your circuit operates near 25V, using a 16V, 10V, or 6.3V rated capacitor can cause it to fail, potentially damaging other components. Always verify the actual operating voltage in your application before using a lower-rated part.

Finding a substitute for the Murata GRM155R61E475ME15D, a 4.7µF 25V 0402 capacitor, requires careful attention to the voltage rating. While many parts match in capacitance and size, they often have lower voltage ratings, posing a risk in applications that require the full 25V...

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

All candidates have lower voltage ratings (6.3V-16V) than the target's 25V.

Package risklow

All candidates match the 0402 package, ensuring physical compatibility.

Can it be replaced directly?

No, there are no direct, risk-free replacements among the candidates reviewed. All have a lower voltage rating, which requires careful engineering validation.

Best replacement path

Search for a 4.7µF 0402 X5R capacitor with a voltage rating of 25V or higher. No direct drop-in replacements were found with lower voltage ratings.

Main risk

The primary risk is electrical overstress. Using a capacitor with a lower voltage rating than the target's 25V can lead to premature failure or damage to the circuit.

Recommended alternatives

A form-fit alternate from Yageo with identical capacitance but a lower 16V rating.
