Then look at candidate capacitors from Mouser that match 4700nF 6.3V in similar sizes. For each candidate, obtain the data sheet from the manufacturer and look at the recommended pad sizes along with the actual dimensions of the part. You'll find one that will fit. So long as the specs are the same, 4700nF 6.3V, it shouldn't matter if the part is physically smaller. If you can't find any smaller, then just hope that the SMD pads on your PCB are large enough to handle a larger cap.<br>
<br>
When I design PCB layouts, the assembly shop likes it when I make sure the pads are a bit larger than the actual parts. That's why I say it shouldn't be a problem if you locate a smaller part, so long as it fits the 4700nF 6.3V specs.<br>
