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.

Why Choose UFG1C470MEM?

UFG1C470MEM combines audio-focused design with compact, radial-can packaging to meet the needs of engineers developing high-grade audio and AV products. Its 47 µF/16 V rating, specified ripple currents, and ±20% tolerance provide clear, verifiable electrical parameters for power filtering and decoupling tasks.

This part is suited to designers who need a through-hole electrolytic solution with acoustic-oriented characteristics, predictable thermal endurance at up to 85°C, and RoHS compliance for modern electronic assemblies.
