UKL1C471MPD

The UKL1C471MPD is a miniature radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UKL series, offering 470 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It is a standard-type, polarized can-style capacitor designed for compact electronic assemblies where low leakage and defined ripple performance are required.

Core use cases include audio equipment and other electronic designs that require a compact 470 µF capacitor with specified ripple handling, controlled dissipation factor, and a rated operating range from –40 °C to 85 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage 470 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing predictable energy storage for designs sized to φ10 × 20 mm.
• Low Leakage Current Part of Nichicon’s low leakage UKL series; specified leakage current of 15.04 µA (measurement condition: 20 °C, after rated voltage application) supports designs sensitive to standby drain.
• Ripple Current Performance Rated ripple current of 550 mA at 120 Hz and 825 mA at 10 kHz, enabling handling of both low- and high-frequency ripple in compact power stages.
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ) tan δ = 0.14 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz (for this part), giving a quantifiable loss characteristic for AC conditions.
• Endurance and Temperature Range Specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 85 °C with an operating temperature range from –40 °C to 85 °C, suitable for designs that require defined high-temperature endurance.
• Package and Mounting Radial-lead can, size φ10 × 20 mm with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); available in bulk or bag packing for through-hole assembly.
• RoHS Compliance Manufactured in compliance with RoHS directives.

Typical Applications

• Audio Specified for audio equipment applications where a 470 µF, 16 V polarized capacitor with low leakage and defined ripple ratings is required.

Unique Advantages

• Low standby loss: The UKL series’ low leakage specification (15.04 µA for this part) reduces standby current impact in sensitive circuits.
• Compact energy density: 470 µF in a φ10 × 20 mm can provides significant capacitance in a small radial package for space-constrained boards.
• Defined ripple capability: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz (550 mA and 825 mA respectively) give designers clear limits for AC stress in both low- and high-frequency domains.
• Quantified loss characteristic: A measured tan δ of 0.14 at 20 °C/120 Hz allows predictable thermal and AC loss planning.
• Rated endurance: 2000 hours at 85 °C provides a clear aging profile for lifecycle planning in thermal environments up to the specified limit.
• RoHS compliant manufacturing: Meets RoHS requirements for use in regulated markets.
