A cross-vendor functional alternative with higher voltage, but in a larger package that is not a drop-in fit.
Finding a substitute for the KNSCHA RVT470UF16V67RV0031 capacitor requires careful review. While several parts offer similar electrical specs, all identified candidates have larger packages, preventing a direct drop-in replacement.
All candidates have a larger footprint and will not fit without a PCB redesign.
Candidates have matching capacitance and superior voltage/ripple current ratings.
No, there are no direct pin-compatible replacements identified in this review. All candidates require PCB layout changes due to larger package sizes.
The best path is to find a 470µF capacitor with a voltage rating of 16V or higher in an identical 8mm x 10.2mm SMD package.
The primary risk is mechanical incompatibility. All reviewed alternatives are physically larger than the target part.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capacitance | 470µF | 470µF | 470µF | 470µF | 470µF — Capacitance matches.; RVT470UF35V67RV0056: Capacitance matches.; RVT470UF50V34RV0133: Capacitance matches. |
| Voltage | 16V | 35V | 35V | 50V | 35V / 50V — Higher voltage rating provides more design margin.; RVT470UF35V67RV0056: Higher voltage rating provides more design margin.; RVT470UF50V34RV0133: Higher voltage rating provides more design margin. |
| Package | 8mm x 10.2mm | 10x10.2mm | 10mm x 10.2mm | 12.5mm x 13.5mm | 10x10.2mm / 10mm x 10.2mm / 12.5mm x 13.5mm — Candidate has a larger diameter and will not fit the same footprint.; RVT470UF35V67RV0056: Candidate has a larger diameter and will not fit the same footprint.; RVT470UF50V34RV0133: Candidate is significantly larger and will not fit the same footprint. |
| Current | 230mA | 247mA | 286mA | 520mA | 247mA / 286mA / 520mA — Slightly higher ripple current handling.; RVT470UF35V67RV0056: Higher ripple current handling is an improvement.; RVT470UF50V34RV0133: Higher ripple current handling is an improvement. |
The best alternatives are functional matches like KNSCHA RVT470UF35V67RV0056, but they require a PCB redesign as they are in larger packages (e.g., 10mm diameter vs 8mm).
