UPJ1J470MPD

The UPJ1J470MPD is a radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPJ series, designed for low-impedance, general-purpose power filtering. This 47 µF, 63 V polarized capacitor is optimized for board-level decoupling and ripple suppression in switching power supplies and other power electronics.

Key attributes include a wide operating temperature range of −55°C to 105°C, a rated life of 3000 hours at 105°C (for the φ8 case), and compact φ8 × 11.5 mm packaging with 3.5 mm lead spacing for through-hole assembly and prototyping.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 47 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 63 V and a capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low Loss / Low Impedance — tanδ (DF) 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for the 63 V rating, supporting efficient ripple handling in power circuits.
• Ripple Current Capability — Specified low-frequency ripple current of approximately 109.7 mA at 120 Hz and a high-frequency ripple current of 215 mA at 200 kHz, enabling effective AC ripple filtering across common switching frequencies.
• Leakage Current — Leakage current specified at 88.83 µA, consistent with typical aluminum electrolytic behavior and the series leakage current limits.
• Thermal and Endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to 105°C with an endurance rating of 3000 hours at 105°C for the φ8 case size.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style case (φ8 × 11.5 mm) with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); available in bulk or bag packing for manual assembly and small-scale production.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Provides low-impedance bulk and output filtering to reduce ripple and stabilize converters.
• DC-DC Converters — Used for input/output smoothing and decoupling on buck, boost and other board-mounted converter modules.
• General Power Filtering — Ideal for power rails in industrial and consumer electronics where compact, through-hole capacitors are required.

Unique Advantages

• Low-impedance performance: tanδ 0.08 (63 V) and specified ripple currents support improved ripple suppression and thermal performance under switching conditions.
• Compact radial form factor: φ8 × 11.5 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing provides a space-efficient through-hole solution for hand-assembly or legacy PCBs.
• Wide temperature range: Operates from −55°C to 105°C to accommodate demanding thermal environments.
• Long rated life: 3000 hours at 105°C for the φ8 case helps ensure reliable service in continuous-power applications.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental regulatory requirements for lead-free assemblies.
• Available packaging for prototyping: Bulk and bag packing options simplify procurement for development and small production runs.
