UKL1V471KHD

The UKL1V471KHD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UKL low-leakage series. It is a radial-lead, polarized can device delivering 470 µF capacitance at 35 V with ±10% tolerance in a compact φ12.5×25 mm package with 5 mm lead spacing.

Engineered for audio applications, this capacitor combines low leakage (32.9 µA), rated ripple performance (680 mA at 120 Hz and 1.02 A at 10 kHz), and a −40°C to 85°C operating range with 2000 hours endurance at 85°C for reliable performance in demanding circuit environments.

Key Features

• Core Electrical — 470 µF capacitance with ±10% tolerance at 35 V rated voltage, suitable for circuits requiring substantial bulk capacitance in a compact radial can.
• Low Leakage — Specified leakage current of 32.9 µA, supporting long-term charge retention in bias and coupling applications.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 680 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 1.02 A (10 kHz), enabling handling of both low- and high-frequency ripple components.
• Thermal and Endurance Rating — Operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 85°C.
• Mechanical and Mounting — Radial lead can (φ12.5×25 mm), 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance), and typical lead diameter 0.6 mm, designed for through-hole radial mounting.
• Packaging and Compliance — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Audio equipment — For audio circuits requiring 470 µF / 35 V capacitance and low leakage characteristics.
• Audio power supplies — Provides rated ripple handling of 680 mA at 120 Hz and 1.02 A at 10 kHz for power filtering in audio electronics.
• Audio system maintenance — Fits φ12.5×25 mm radial can footprints commonly used in audio assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Low self-discharge: The 32.9 µA leakage current specification helps maintain stored charge and reduces DC loss over time.
• Broad ripple handling: Measured ripple ratings at both low and high frequencies (680 mA at 120 Hz; 1.02 A at 10 kHz) support mixed-frequency audio power conditions.
• Compact radial form factor: φ12.5×25 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing provides a small footprint for through-hole layouts while delivering high capacitance.
• Durability at elevated temperature: Rated for 2000 hours at 85°C, offering predictable endurance for thermal stress in audio electronics.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for environmental compliance.
• Packaging flexibility: Available in bulk or bag packing to suit manufacturing and repair workflows.
