Overview of UFW0J472MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 4700 µF, 6.3 V, Radial Lead
The UFW0J472MHD is a Nichicon UFW series aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for audio applications. It is a radial‑lead, can‑style capacitor providing 4700 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating in a compact φ12.5 × 20 mm package with 5 mm lead spacing.
Engineered for demanding audio circuitry, this part offers substantial bulk capacitance, defined ripple current capability across low and high frequencies, and a 2000‑hour endurance at 85°C—delivering stable performance across a −40°C to 85°C operating range.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 4700 µF (4.7 mF) capacitance at a 6.3 V rated voltage, suitable for bulk energy storage and smoothing in low‑voltage audio rails.
- Radial Lead, Can Package — φ12.5 × 20 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing for through‑hole mounting and straightforward PCB integration.
- Tolerance — ±20% capacitance tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), matching UFW series specification for predictable capacitance range.
- Ripple Current Capability — 1.350 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.5525 A at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling reliable filtering under AC ripple conditions.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 888.3 µA, consistent with electrolytic capacitor behavior and series-level leakage characteristics.
- Operating Range & Endurance — Rated for −40°C to 85°C with an endurance of 2000 hours at 85°C, per UFW series endurance criteria.
Typical Applications
- Audio Equipment — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in amplifier power supplies and signal‑conditioning circuits where stable low‑voltage capacitance is required.
Unique Advantages
- High Bulk Capacitance in a Compact Footprint: 4700 µF in a φ12.5 × 20 mm can provides substantial energy storage while minimizing PCB area.
