UPJ1E472MHD

The Nichicon UPJ1E472MHD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UPJ series, configured as a radial lead can. It provides 4700 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with a -20% to +20% tolerance, optimized for power filtering on 25 V rails.

Designed for applications that demand low impedance, high ripple handling and long operating life, this capacitor is well suited for switching power supplies and general-purpose power smoothing in electronic equipment, with a rated operating range from -55°C to 105°C and a 5000 hour endurance at 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 4700 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of -20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Rated Voltage & Polarization — Rated for 25 V DC and polarized for correct installation in DC circuits.
• Low Impedance & Ripple Handling — Low impedance construction with specified ripple currents of 2.394 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.66 A at 200 kHz (high frequency).
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ) — Measured tan δ of 0.28 at 20°C and 120 Hz, providing a quantifiable loss characteristic for design planning.
• Leakage Current — Leakage current of 3525 µA (per the specified measurement condition), allowing predictable bias current budgeting.
• High Temperature Endurance — 5000 hours rated life at 105°C under specified load conditions for long-term reliability.
• Package & Mechanical — Radial lead can package, dimensions φ18 × 40 mm, lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm), suitable for radial lead mounting and hand or machine assembly in bulk or bag packing.
• Environmental Compliance & Production Status — RoHS compliant and available in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and high ripple current capability make this capacitor suitable for bulk smoothing and decoupling in switching regulators and power supply outputs.
• 25 V Power Rail Smoothing — High capacitance at a 25 V rating provides energy storage and voltage stabilization on 25 V DC rails.
• General-Purpose Electronic Equipment — Useful for general-purpose power filtering and decoupling where long life at elevated temperature and predictable leakage are required.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance in a Compact Can: 4700 µF in a φ18 × 40 mm radial can delivers substantial bulk capacitance while conserving board area.
• Robust Ripple Performance: Rated ripple currents of 2.394 A (120 Hz) and 2.66 A (200 kHz) reduce voltage ripple on DC rails under both low- and high-frequency stress.
• Long High-Temperature Life: Endurance rated to 5000 hours at 105°C supports reliable operation in thermally demanding environments.
• Quantified Loss and Leakage: Published tan δ (0.28 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current (3525 µA) allow accurate thermal and bias loss calculations during design.
• Radial Lead Form Factor: Radial lead can with 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies placement for board-level power filtering and replacement serviceability.
• RoHS Compliant and Production-Ready: Meets RoHS requirements and is available in mass production packaging options (bulk / bag packing) for volume procurement.
