UPJ1C472MHD6

The UPJ1C472MHD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor delivering 4700 µF at 16 V in a compact φ18 × 30.5 mm can. It is part of the UPJ series optimized for low impedance and reliable long-life operation under load.

Designed for general-purpose power applications and switching power supplies, this capacitor combines high ripple-current capability, a wide −55 °C to 105 °C operating range, and a rated endurance of 5000 hours at 105 °C to support sustained thermal and electrical stress.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 4700 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20 °C for bulk energy storage and smoothing.
• Low-Impedance Design — Part of a low-impedance series intended for switching power supplies, helping to reduce ripple on DC rails.
• High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current 2.016 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.24 A (200 kHz) to handle both bulk and high-frequency switching stresses.
• Long Endurance — Life rating of 5000 hours at 105 °C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current for extended reliability in thermally demanding designs.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55 °C to 105 °C for use across broad environmental conditions.
• Leakage & Loss Characteristics — Specified leakage current 2256 µA and tan δ 0.22 (measurement condition 20 °C, 120 Hz), allowing predictable loss budgeting in designs.
• Radial-Lead Package — φ18 × 30.5 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through-hole mounting and straightforward PCB layout.
• Compliance & Availability — RoHS compliant and available in bulk or bag packing; product is in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Provides bulk smoothing and ripple suppression for power converters where low impedance and high ripple handling are required.
• DC Power Filtering — Stabilizes DC rails and helps maintain voltage during transient loads in general-purpose power electronics.
• Industrial Power Modules — Supports power conditioning and energy buffering in industrial control and power distribution assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple-current capability: Measured at 2.016 A (120 Hz) and 2.24 A (200 kHz) to address both low- and high-frequency switching stress without frequent replacement.
• Extended high-temperature life: 5000-hour endurance at 105 °C under rated conditions for durability in thermally demanding applications.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ (0.22) and leakage current (2256 µA) enable accurate thermal and leakage budgeting in design reviews.
• Compact radial can package: φ18 × 30.5 mm and 7.5 mm lead spacing provide a small-footprint, easy-to-assemble through-hole solution for power boards.
• Production-ready supply: RoHS compliant and offered in bulk or bag packing with mass-production status for consistent sourcing.
