UCM1C470MCL1GS

The UCM1C470MCL1GS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UCM series, optimized for surface-mount assembly. It delivers 47 µF at 16 V in a compact φ4 × 5.8 mm SMD can with embossed carrier taping for automated placement.

Designed for automotive applications and other demanding environments, this part combines a wide operating temperature range and AEC‑Q200 qualification with measurable low-frequency and high-frequency ripple performance to support power decoupling and smoothing on space-constrained PCBs.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 47 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 16 V with ±20% tolerance; impedance specified at 1 Ω.
• Loss and Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; leakage current listed at 7.52 µA.
• Ripple Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 80 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 160 mA (10 kHz) for mixed-frequency decoupling demands.
• Reliability & Endurance — AEC‑Q200 rated with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 105°C (φD ≤ 10), and an operating temperature range from −55°C to +105°C.
• Package & Assembly — Chip-type surface-mount can, size φ4 × 5.8L mm, surface mount land size 4.3 × 4.3 mm, supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated pick-and-place.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Automotive control modules — For local power decoupling and smoothing where AEC‑Q200 qualification and a −55°C to +105°C range are required.
• On-board power rails — Compact surface-mount solution for stabilizing low-voltage power rails in space-constrained electronic assemblies.
• Sensor and telematics modules — Small footprint capacitor for filtering and transient suppression in compact automotive or industrial sensor electronics.

Unique Advantages

• AEC‑Q200 qualification: Enables use in automotive applications that require component-level qualification for elevated reliability.
• Wide temperature range: −55°C to +105°C operation supports demanding thermal environments common in automotive electronics.
• Compact SMD can: φ4 × 5.8 mm chip package and 4.3 × 4.3 mm land pattern reduce PCB area compared to larger radial cans.
• Measured low loss and defined impedance: tan δ of 0.16 (120 Hz, 20°C) and 1 Ω impedance provide predictable AC behavior for design validation.
• Dual-frequency ripple handling: Specified ripple current at 120 Hz and 10 kHz supports mixed-frequency decoupling needs in power systems.
• Assembly-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping streamlines high-volume surface-mount assembly processes.
