UBX1C471MHL

The UBX1C471MHL is a miniature, high‑reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UBX series. It is a radial lead, laminated‑case design specified for operation up to +150°C and intended for heavy‑duty electronics applications.

With a 470 µF capacitance at 16 V, AEC‑Q200 rating, and a combination of high ripple capability and long endurance, this capacitor targets demanding environments where elevated temperatures and sustained performance are required.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance: 470 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, and a rated voltage of 16 V.
• High‑temperature capability: Specified for a category temperature range of –55°C to +150°C and life endurance of 1000 hours at 150°C (φ12.5 size).
• Ripple current & dissipation: Low frequency ripple current 402 mA at 120 Hz and high frequency ripple current 600 mA at 100 kHz; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• Leakage current: Measured leakage current of 225.6 µA (after 1 minute's application of rated voltage at 20°C conditions per datasheet guidance).
• Package & mounting: Radial lead, can package sized φ12.5 × 20 mm with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through‑hole assembly; available in bulk or bag packing.
• Reliability & compliance: High reliability UBX series construction with laminated case; RoHS compliant and AEC‑Q200 listed in the product specifications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics: Suited for automobile electronics and other heavy‑duty services where high temperature endurance and long life are required.
• High‑temperature power modules: Use in power circuits and modules that require stable capacitance and ripple handling at elevated ambient temperatures up to +150°C.
• Compact through‑hole assemblies: Small φ12.5 can and 5 mm lead spacing for space‑constrained PCB layouts needing reliable radial lead capacitors.

Unique Advantages

• Rated for +150°C operation: Category temperature range extends to +150°C with a qualified endurance rating (1000 hours at 150°C for φ12.5), supporting high‑temperature system designs.
• Automotive‑grade reliability: AEC‑Q200 listed and described as suited for automotive electronics, addressing heavy‑duty application requirements.
• Strong ripple performance: 402 mA at 120 Hz and 600 mA at 100 kHz ripple currents reduce the need for additional bulk capacitance in many designs.
• Compact radial form factor: φ12.5 × 20 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing provides a small footprint for through‑hole assemblies while maintaining performance.
• Controlled dielectric losses: tan δ of 0.16 (20°C, 120 Hz) supports predictable dissipation behavior in power applications.
• Low leakage current: Measured leakage of 225.6 µA supports stable bias performance after energization.
