UKL1V471MHD

The UKL1V471MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UKL low-leakage series. It provides 470 µF capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact φ12.5 × 25 mm can and is RoHS compliant.

Engineered for audio and related power-conditioning tasks, the part delivers low leakage, substantial ripple handling, and a 2000-hour endurance rating at 85°C, making it suitable for compact assemblies that require stable DC bias and effective ripple suppression.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 35 V and a capacitance tolerance of ±20%.
• Low Leakage — Part of Nichicon's low leakage UKL series; measured leakage current listed as 32.9 µA.
• Ripple Performance — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 680 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 1.02 A at 10 kHz.
• Endurance & Temperature — Rated life of 2000 hours at 85°C and an operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.
• Radial Lead Package — φ12.5 × 25 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Regulatory — Compliant with RoHS requirements.

Typical Applications

• Audio Electronics — Bulk and decoupling capacitor for audio amplifiers and preamplifiers where low leakage and reliable ripple handling are important.
• Power Supply Filtering — Smoothing and local energy storage on DC rails in compact power circuits for consumer and professional audio equipment.
• Embedded and Industrial Electronics — General-purpose decoupling in assemblies that require a compact radial electrolytic with defined endurance at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• Low leakage for stable DC bias: The UKL series is specified for low leakage and this part lists leakage current (32.9 µA), helping maintain charge and reduce bias drift in sensitive circuits.
• High ripple capability: Rated ripple currents of 680 mA (120 Hz) and 1.02 A (10 kHz) support effective filtering across low and high frequency ranges.
• Compact radial can: φ12.5 × 25 mm form factor with 5 mm lead spacing simplifies board layout for space-constrained designs.
• Endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 85°C provides predictable lifetime performance for thermal environments up to the rated limit.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for use in regulated assemblies.
