UCQ1A470MCL1GB

The UCQ1A470MCL1GB is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UCQ series, configured as a chip-type component optimized for audio applications and compact electronic designs. It provides 47 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating in a φ6.3 × 4.5 mm SMD can, delivering temperature-stable performance across a wide -55°C to 105°C operating range.

Designed for automated assembly (embossed carrier taping) and qualified to AEC-Q200, this part targets automotive electronics and audio equipment where compact footprint, controlled loss (tan δ), ripple handling and endurance at elevated temperature are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 47 µF rated at 10 V with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C), providing a predictable energy-storage element for decoupling and smoothing tasks.
• Low-loss Performance: tan δ max 0.26 measured at 120 Hz, 20°C, supporting stable audio and signal-path performance where dielectric losses matter.
• Ripple Current Capability: 40 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 60 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling handling of both low- and high-frequency ripple components within the specified limits.
• Low Leakage: Specified leakage current of approximately 4.7 µA, suitable for applications that require low quiescent current draw.
• Automotive-grade Reliability: AEC-Q200 qualified with endurance of 1000 hours at 105°C (for the 4.5 mm length), delivering verified high-temperature lifetime for demanding environments.
• Compact SMD Package & Assembly: φ6.3 × 4.5L can in an SMD radial/can package with embossed carrier taping for automated pick-and-place and high-volume production.
• Wide Temperature Range: Rated for -55°C to +105°C to support applications across harsh temperature extremes.
• Soldering Heat Resistance: Meets specified soldering heat characteristics as defined in the UCQ series data, maintaining capacitance and leakage after exposure.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements for environmental compliance.

Typical Applications

• Audio Equipment: Chip-type UCQ series design and controlled tan δ make this capacitor suitable for compact audio circuits where low-loss filtering and coupling are important.
• Automotive Electronics: AEC-Q200 qualification and -55°C to 105°C rating support use in automotive control modules and in-vehicle electronics requiring SMD packaging and endurance at elevated temperatures.
• Compact SMD Power Modules: Small φ6.3 × 4.5 mm footprint and embossed carrier taping enable integration into space-constrained, high-volume surface-mount power and signal-conditioning assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 status provides documented suitability for applications that require industry-recognized reliability screening.
• Temperature endurance: 1000 hours at 105°C (for 4.5L) offers designers a clear endurance specification for high-temperature applications.
• Balanced ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz give predictable performance across common power and switching-frequency bands.
• Compact, assembly-ready package: φ6.3 × 4.5 mm can and embossed carrier taping simplify placement in automated production and conserve PCB area.
• Low leakage and controlled loss: Low leakage current and defined tan δ support low-noise, low-power designs, including audio signal paths.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance reduces regulatory risk for global product programs.
