UFG1J471MHM

The UFG1J471MHM from Nichicon is a high-grade aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, engineered for high‑grade audio and AV equipment. It is a polarized radial-leaded can capacitor optimized for power decoupling and smoothing in audio circuits where rich bass response and clearer high-end reproduction are desired.

Key electrical characteristics include 470 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating, ±20% tolerance, and designed endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C. The part is RoHS compliant and carries the series' gold-sleeve marking.

Key Features

• Audio-grade construction — Part of Nichicon’s "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, using state-of-the-art etching techniques to support richer bass and clearer high frequencies in AV applications.
• Capacitance & voltage — 470 µF rated capacitance at 63 V with ±20% tolerance for power smoothing and energy storage in audio power rails.
• Ripple handling — Specified ripple current of 840 mA at 120 Hz and 1.26 A at 10 kHz to support AC ripple filtration and dynamic current demands.
• Thermal performance & lifetime — Operates from −40°C to +85°C with an endurance rating of 1000 hours at 85°C, enabling reliable operation in typical AV environments.
• Radial through-hole package — Radial lead, can-style package (lead spacing 7.5 mm) for straightforward PCB mounting in discrete and replacement designs; size L: 2.5 × D: 1.6 cm.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), suitable for designs requiring restricted‑substance conformance.
• Visual identification — Printed with black lettering on a gold sleeve for series identification and consistent assembly marking.

Typical Applications

• Audio amplifiers — Bulk decoupling and power‑supply smoothing to support low-frequency dynamics and stable rail voltage for amplifier stages.
• AV receivers and home theater — Power filtering and energy buffering in AV equipment where improved bass response and clear high-end reproduction are priorities.
• Preamp and DAC power rails — Local supply decoupling to reduce ripple and provide stable operating points for sensitive analog front ends.
• Professional audio equipment — Use in mixers, equalizers, and other pro‑audio gear for reliable filtering and audio‑centric performance characteristics.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-focused series tuning — Part of the MUSE "Fine Gold" acoustic line, offering acoustic characteristics described for richer bass and clearer highs.
• High ripple capability — Defined ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to select this part with confidence for both low- and high-frequency ripple environments.
• Designed for through-hole use — Radial can package and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify PCB implementation and mechanical retention in chassis-mounted audio equipment.
• Wide operating temperature window — −40°C to +85°C range supports a variety of consumer and professional AV environments.
• Validated endurance — 1000 hours at 85°C endurance rating provides a quantifiable baseline for long-term performance planning.
• RoHS compliant — Meets current restricted-substance requirements for regulated markets.
