Notes for designers
0603B473J500CT is a 0603 X7R capacitor from Walsin's General Purpose series: 47 nF ±5%, rated 50 VDC, decoded from the ordering table and confirmed in the X7R range grid. (p.2, p.7) It is a BaTiO3-based Class II ceramic, the approval sheet requires a 150 °C de-aging and 24 h rest before capacitance is even measured, a reminder that the label value is history- and drive-level-dependent. (p.4, p.20)
The numbers you design against: capacitance within ±15% from −55 to +125 °C, (p.4, p.14) dissipation factor ≤3% at 1 kHz / 1.0 Vrms, (p.12) insulation resistance 10 GΩ or R×C ≥ 500 Ω·F, (p.14) and a dielectric proofed at 250% of rated voltage. (p.13) Life testing runs 1,000 h at 125 °C and 200% of rated voltage with capacitance held within ±12.5%. (p.18) It ships 4,000 to a 7-inch paper-tape reel and is MSL 1. (p.11, p.20)
Footprint
The datasheet has no land pattern, so the pads are the IPC-7351 nominal pattern (KiCad's standard Capacitor_SMD:C_0603_1608Metric), replacing pads that were off it by up to 0.05 mm.

| Corner radius | none given | 0.225 (ratio 0.25) | 0.225 (ratio 0.25) | 0.1 (ratio 0.1111) |
Corners: KiCad roundrects with the radius held to 0.25 x the smaller pad side and no more than 0.1 mm (IPC-7351C favours rounded corners for paste release); copper area within 1 % of a square-cornered pad.
Chip outline
The part's 3D outline in the standard pose (pad 1 toward the viewer), drawn from the STEP by Adom's OpenCascade service; the part number sits where the laser-etched mark is on the 3D model and reads the same way.
Symbol options
The default symbol, 0603B473J500CT.kicad_sym (the one in the Symbol & Footprint panel), is the plain standard symbol. 0603B473J500CT-outline.kicad_sym is the same symbol with the part's 3D chip outline drawn beside it, its part number placed and reading as on the 3D model.
