Overview of UFG1C470MEM – 47 µF 16 V Radial Audio Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UFG1C470MEM is a high-grade aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, engineered for audio and AV equipment. It is a polarized radial-lead, can-type capacitor delivering 47 µF at 16 V with acoustic-oriented etching techniques targeted at improved audio character.
Designed for through-hole assemblies, this part offers compact dimensions and targeted performance for power filtering and audio circuitry where low-frequency richness and clearer high-end reproduction are important.
Key Features
- Audio-focused series — Part of the "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic UFG series, optimized using etching techniques for enhanced audio character in AV and high-grade audio systems.
- Capacitance & voltage — 47 µF nominal capacitance rated at 16 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- Package & mounting — Radial, can-style package with radial leads for through-hole PCB mounting; lead spacing 2.5 mm and polar orientation for electrolytic applications.
- Compact dimensions — Size L: 1.1 cm × D: 0.63 cm and maximum seated height of 1.1 cm for space-constrained board layouts.
- Operating range & endurance — Rated for −40°C to +85°C with an endurance specification of 1000 hours at 85°C.
- Ripple current capability — 74 mA at 120 Hz and 148 mA at 10 kHz to support AC ripple handling in audio power circuits.
- RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS directives referenced in the product description.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade audio equipment — Used in audio front-ends and signal chain support where the MUSE acoustic series’ sonic characteristics are desired.
- AV systems — Suited for audio/video equipment power decoupling and filtering to help preserve low-frequency richness and clarity.
- General-purpose electronic circuits — Through-hole radial mounting makes it useful for power smoothing and storage in compact PCB assemblies.
Unique Advantages
- Audio-oriented acoustic tuning — UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE series construction and etching techniques are specified for richer bass and clearer high end, addressing audio design priorities.
- Small footprint, through-hole convenience — Compact L × D dimensions and 2.5 mm lead spacing facilitate placement in dense, hand-assembled, or serviceable boards.
- Thermal endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C with a 1000-hour endurance at 85°C for predictable life in typical AV environments.
- Measured ripple performance — Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz enable designers to size capacitors for expected AC conditions in audio power networks.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory needs for electronic assemblies.
