Is there a pin-compatible replacement for MP2104K27D2X8LC?

Based on current data, no direct pin-compatible replacement with the same 15mm lead spacing has been identified. Candidates found have 10mm spacing, which is not a drop-in fit.

What risks should I check before replacing MP2104K27D2X8LC?

The main risk is mechanical. Verify the lead spacing of any alternative; the target uses 15mm. Also, ensure the replacement is an X2-class safety-rated film capacitor with at least a 275VAC rating.

Finding a substitute for the SRD MP2104K27D2X8LC X2 safety capacitor requires careful attention to its 15mm lead spacing. While electrically similar parts exist, mechanical compatibility is the primary challenge.

AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

Lead spacing mismatch (15mm vs 10mm) prevents drop-in replacement and requires PCB modification.

Electrical risklow

If a part with matching electrical specs is found, electrical risk is minimal.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, pin-for-pin replacement is currently identified due to a mismatch in lead spacing with available candidates.

Best replacement path

Search for an X2-class, 0.1uF, 275VAC+ film capacitor specifically with 15mm lead spacing.

Main risk

Mechanical incompatibility due to lead spacing mismatch (15mm vs. 10mm).

Recommended alternatives

Electrically similar X2 cap from the same series, but with different lead spacing (10mm vs 15mm) requiring board layout changes.
