UCY2C470MPD

The UCY2C470MPD is a radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 47 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact φ10 × 20 mm can. It is a polarized, miniature design engineered for high ripple-current environments and long-term operation across a wide temperature range.

Designed for power electronics and automotive use, this AEC-Q200 qualified part delivers high ripple-handling, a long endurance rating (10,000 hours at 105°C), and RoHS compliance—making it suitable where reliable energy storage and smoothing are required in compact circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 47 µF nominal capacitance with a 160 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• High ripple-current capability: Specified ripple current of 375 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 750 mA at 100 kHz (high frequency), supporting demanding AC/rectified applications.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: Rated for 10,000 hours at +105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, supporting sustained operation in hot environments.
• Thermal and loss characteristics: tanδ (DF) max 0.20 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, and operating temperature range from −40°C to +105°C for stable performance across temperature extremes.
• Leakage current: Specified leakage current of 400.8 µA after application of rated voltage per product test condition.
• Compact radial package: φ10 × 20 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), radial lead mounting and available in bulk or bag packing.
• Automotive-grade qualification and compliance: AEC-Q200 rated and RoHS compliant, suitable for regulated environments and automotive electronics.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power systems: Energy storage and smoothing in automotive power electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification and high ripple tolerance are required.
• Power supplies: Bulk filtering and ripple attenuation in DC power supplies and converter outputs that demand high ripple current handling.
• Ballasts and lighting electronics: Filtering and stabilization in ballast circuits and lighting power modules as indicated by the UCY series datasheet guidance.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling at LF and HF: Dual ripple-current specifications (375 mA at 120 Hz and 750 mA at 100 kHz) let designers evaluate performance across frequency ranges without extrapolation.
• Endurance under heat and load: 10,000-hour life rating at 105°C provides predictable longevity in thermally demanding applications.
• Compact form factor: φ10 × 20 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing deliver high energy density for space-constrained PCBs.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in regulated automotive environments and simplifies component selection for vehicle electronics.
• Controlled electrical characteristics: Low tanδ (0.20 at 120 Hz) and defined leakage current enable consistent filtering and decoupling performance.
• Compliance and availability: RoHS compliant and in mass production with bulk/bag packing options for flexible procurement and assembly workflows.
