UFG1A471MPM

The UFG1A471MPM is a Nichicon UFG-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high-grade audio and AV equipment. It is a radial-lead, polarized capacitor in the "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic lineup, engineered using advanced etching techniques to support richer bass response and clearer high-end reproduction.

This part is specified as 470 μF at 10 V with audio-focused loss and ripple characteristics, and is RoHS compliant for environmentally conscious designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 μF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 10 V and a tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Audio-Optimized Acoustic Series — Part of the Fine Gold MUSE acoustic series; designed to enhance bass richness and high-end clarity through specialized etching techniques.
• Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.19 measured at 120 Hz, 20°C, for controlled dissipation in audio signal and power applications.
• Ripple Handling — Low-frequency ripple current of 330 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 495 mA at 10 kHz, enabling decoupling and smoothing in audio power rails.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 47 μA for predictable bias behavior in low-voltage audio circuits.
• Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 1000 hours at 85°C; operating range from −40°C to +85°C for reliable performance across typical AV operating conditions.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead (polarized) can package with diameter φ10 mm and length 16 mm (L: 1.6 cm × D: 1.0 cm), lead spacing 5.0 mm (±0.5 mm), supplied in bulk or bag packing.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• High-fidelity amplifiers — Smoothing and decoupling in power supply rails where enhanced bass and clear high-frequency response are desired.
• AV receivers and preamplifiers — Audio-focused filtering and reservoir capacitance to support dynamic playback and low-noise operation.
• Professional audio equipment — Through-hole radial package suitable for serviceable designs in mixing consoles and outboard gear.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-tuned acoustic series: Fine Gold MUSE design and etching techniques yield audible improvements in bass depth and high-end clarity specific to AV applications.
• Measured audio-frequency performance: Specified tanδ and ripple current values at audio-relevant frequencies (120 Hz and 10 kHz) allow engineers to evaluate behavior under realistic operating conditions.
• Compact through-hole form factor: φ10 × 16 mm radial-can package with 5 mm lead spacing provides a small-footprint solution for through-hole PCBs and retrofit designs.
• Predictable leakage and endurance: Low leakage current (47 μA) and a 1000-hour endurance rating at 85°C support stable, long-term operation in AV power circuits.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance supports designs requiring restricted-substance conformity.
