UHV1C471MPD

The UHV1C471MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UHV series, offering 470 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose electronic circuits that require bulk capacitance combined with improved high-frequency performance and elevated ripple handling.

Built for board-level radial mounting, the UHV1C471MPD delivers a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm case with 3.5 mm lead spacing and is provided in bulk for mass production. The device is RoHS compliant and specified for extended lifetime under elevated temperature stress.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 470 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low impedance: Series-design emphasis on reduced impedance at high frequency; measured impedance 181 mΩ (specified).
• High ripple capability: Rated ripple current of 495 mA at 120 Hz and 990 mA at 100 kHz, supporting both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Leakage current: Specified leakage current of 75.2 µA (after 2 minutes at 20°C measurement condition referenced in series datasheet).
• Temperature and lifetime: Operating range –40°C to +105°C with endurance of 6000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions.
• Package & mounting: Radial lead, can-style package, case size φ8 × 11.5 mm, lead spacing 3.5 mm, suitable for through-hole radial mounting.
• Polarized device: Designed as a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor for DC applications.
• Compliance & production: RoHS compliant and available in bulk for mass production runs.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering: Use where 470 µF bulk capacitance and 16 V rating are required to support power smoothing and decoupling in general-purpose circuits.
• High-frequency ripple handling: Applications that require elevated ripple performance up to 100 kHz can make use of the 990 mA high-frequency ripple rating.
• Long-life, elevated-temperature environments: Designs that require endurance at higher operating temperatures benefit from the 6000 h life rating at 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Compact radial package: φ8 × 11.5 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing offers a small footprint for through-hole placements while delivering substantial capacitance.
• Balanced low- and high-frequency performance: Documented low impedance and separate ripple ratings for 120 Hz and 100 kHz enable predictable behavior across frequency ranges.
• Extended high-temperature endurance: 6000 hours at 105°C provides specification-backed life data for thermal-stressed designs.
• Clear electrical specifications: Explicit values for impedance (181 mΩ), leakage current (75.2 µA), and ripple currents (495 mA / 990 mA) simplify design margin calculations.
• Manufacturing-ready supply: Supplied in bulk and listed as mass production status to support volume assembly needs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in assemblies targeting restricted-substance requirements.
