UHD1C471MPD

The UHD1C471MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UHD series, offering 470 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating with ±20% tolerance. Designed for general-purpose electronic circuits, it delivers high ripple-current capability and reduced impedance across high-frequency ranges in a compact φ8×15 mm can.

Key performance attributes include a low tanδ (0.16 at 20°C, 120 Hz), rated ripple current up to 995 mA at 100 kHz, and a 3000-hour endurance at 105°C. The part is RoHS compliant and available in bulk/bag packing for production use.

Key Features

• Electrolytic Core Aluminum electrolytic dielectric with polar radial-lead construction for through-hole mounting and straightforward board placement.
• Capacitance & Voltage 470 µF rated capacitance at 16 V with ±20% tolerance, suitable where bulk capacitance is required.
• Low Loss / High-Frequency Performance tanδ = 0.16 (max) at 20°C, 120 Hz and explicit UHD-series design notes of lower impedance at high frequency for improved AC performance.
• High Ripple Current High-frequency ripple current rating of 995 mA at 100 kHz (and 746.3 mA at 120 Hz), supported by the UHD frequency-coefficient data for 470 µF parts.
• Reliability & Lifespan Endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated DC bias plus ripple current, with specified limits for capacitance change, tanδ increase, and leakage.
• Compact Radial Package φ8 × 15 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing and radial leads, packaged in bulk/bag for production handling.
• Leakage Current Specified leakage current not more than 0.01CV after 2 minutes at 20°C (75.2 µA for this 470 µF, 16 V part).
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant per the UHD series declaration.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk capacitance and high ripple capability make this part suitable for smoothing and filtering in general electronic power rails.
• High-frequency decoupling — Lower impedance at high frequency and a frequency coefficient that reaches 1.00 at 100 kHz support decoupling in circuits with high-frequency ripple components.
• Embedded and industrial control electronics — Compact φ8×15 mm package with 3000-hour endurance at 105°C for space-constrained designs that require sustained performance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling in a compact package: 995 mA ripple-current rating at 100 kHz combined with a φ8×15 mm can saves board area while supporting demanding AC loads.
• Improved high-frequency behavior: UHD series low-impedance characteristics and specified tanδ (0.16 at 120 Hz) help maintain effective filtering across a broad frequency range.
• Predictable leakage characteristics: Leakage current limited by the 0.01CV specification (75.2 µA for this part) simplifies power budgeting and startup behavior.
• Robust thermal endurance: Rated for –40°C to +105°C operation with 3000 hours life at 105°C under rated conditions for consistent long-term performance.
• Production-ready packaging: Available in bulk/bag packing and listed as mass production status for easy procurement and volume assembly.
