UKL1V470MPD

The UKL1V470MPD from Nichicon is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 47 µF capacitance at a 35 V rating. It belongs to the UKL series known for low leakage current and is targeted at designs where compact, polarized electrolytic capacitance is required for signal and power tasks.

This component delivers measured performance characteristics including low tangent of loss angle (tanδ), defined ripple current capacity across low and high frequencies, and a specified endurance at elevated temperature, making it suitable for compact electronic equipment and audio-oriented designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 47 µF nominal with tolerance of -20% to +20%, specified at 120 Hz and 20°C.
• Voltage Rating — Rated for 35 V operation.
• Low Leakage — Specified leakage current of 3.29 µA after rated voltage application at 20°C.
• Loss Angle (tanδ) — tanδ = 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for the part’s case size.
• Ripple Current Capability — 190 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 380 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), supporting both power smoothing and higher-frequency decoupling needs.
• Mechanical Package — Radial leaded aluminum can, case size φ8 × 11.5 L (diameter × length), lead spacing 3.5 mm with 0.5 mm tolerance.
• Operating Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C; endurance specified as 2000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage.
• Polarized Device — Designed for polarized circuit applications requiring axial/radial lead mounting.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for restricted substances.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit assembly and inventory handling preferences.

Typical Applications

• Audio equipment — Suited to audio circuits that require 47 µF polarized capacitance with low leakage and defined ripple handling across 120 Hz and higher frequencies.
• Power supply smoothing — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple current capability for small power rails within compact electronic modules.
• General-purpose electronics — Useful in compact radial-leaded assemblies where a combination of low leakage, a 35 V rating, and a φ8 × 11.5 mm can package fits board space and spacing constraints.

Unique Advantages

• Low leakage specification: A rated leakage current of 3.29 µA supports designs sensitive to standby or bias leakage.
• Measured loss angle: tanδ of 0.08 at 120 Hz and 20°C indicates controlled dissipation for improved signal stability in AC applications.
• Frequency-aware ripple handling: Defined ripple ratings—190 mA at 120 Hz and 380 mA at 10 kHz—allow designers to evaluate performance across both low- and high-frequency stress conditions.
• Compact radial can: φ8 × 11.5 mm package with 3.5 mm lead spacing fits space-constrained PCB layouts while retaining through-hole mounting robustness.
• Thermal endurance data: Rated 2000 hours at 85°C under voltage provides a clear reliability baseline for thermal stress planning.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance helps meet environmental and regulatory requirements for many commercial products.
