UFG1H471MHM

The UFG1H471MHM is a high-grade standard aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, engineered for audio and AV equipment. It is a polarized, radial-leaded can-type capacitor optimized for audio-focused circuits where tonal clarity and solid low-frequency response are important.

Designed for general-purpose use in audio systems, the UFG1H471MHM offers 470 µF capacitance at 50 V, RoHS compliance, and performance characteristics suited to power filtering and coupling tasks in consumer and professional AV designs.

Key Features

• Audio-focused acoustic series: Part of Nichicon’s "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, specified for richer bass and clearer high end in AV equipment.
• Electrical rating: 470 µF capacitance with a 50 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for mid-voltage audio and general-purpose circuits.
• Ripple handling: Specified ripple current of 650 mA at 120 Hz and 975 mA at 10 kHz for effective smoothing and decoupling in power rails.
• Operating temperature and reliability: Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C; meets the UFG series endurance criteria for capacitance, tan δ and leakage after high-temperature exposure.
• Low-loss characteristic: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) for 50 V is specified at 0.10 (max) when measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C, supporting stable frequency response in signal and power applications.
• Radial can package: Radial lead mounting with 7.5 mm lead spacing, can-style package and compact dimensions (L: 2.5 × D: 1.6 cm) for straightforward through-hole assembly.
• Leakage & stability specs: Leakage current limited to 0.01CV or 3 µA (whichever is greater) after 1 minute at rated voltage and 20 °C; impedance stability characterized down to −25 °C and −40 °C.
• Environmental compliance: Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• High‑fidelity audio equipment: Used in power supply filtering and coupling stages where the UFG series’ tonal characteristics contribute to richer bass and clearer highs.
• AV receivers and preamps: Suitable for smoothing and decoupling in mid-voltage rails of consumer and professional AV electronics.
• General-purpose power circuits: Employed in through-hole designs requiring reliable electrolytic capacitance, stable performance across −40 °C to +85 °C, and established endurance.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-tuned series: The "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic designation indicates targeted acoustic characteristics for improved sonic balance in AV systems.
• Robust ripple capability: High ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz support effective power conditioning for audio power supplies and amplifier stages.
• Temperature and endurance assurance: Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with a 1000-hour endurance specification at 85 °C, providing predictable long-term behavior under elevated operating temperatures.
• Low-loss performance: Specified tan δ at 50 V (0.10 max) helps maintain stable impedance and low dissipation in signal-critical paths.
• Compact, serviceable package: Radial lead can with 7.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions simplifies through-hole assembly and replacement in serviceable audio equipment.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports deployment in products requiring restricted-substance compliance.
