UPJ1J471MHD

The UPJ1J471MHD is a Nichicon UPJ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 470 µF capacitance at 63 V in a low-impedance radial-can package. It is designed for power applications where high ripple handling and long-term thermal endurance are required.

Typical use cases include switching power supplies and general-purpose power filtering in electronic systems. Key value propositions are its low impedance characteristics, Pb-free construction, and rated 5000-hour lifetime at +105°C for robust performance under elevated-temperature load conditions.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance: 470 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating with ±20% tolerance, suitable for bulk energy storage and smoothing in power rails.
• Low Impedance / High Ripple Handling: Specified ripple current of 880.4 mA at 20 Hz and 1.42 A at 200 kHz supports switching power supply ripple and transient currents.
• Thermal Endurance: Rated for 5000 hours at +105°C, providing extended operational life under high-temperature load conditions.
• Operating Temperature Range: −55°C to +105°C to cover a wide range of ambient and operating environments.
• Compact Radial Can Package: 12.5 mm diameter × 35.5 mm length with 5 mm lead spacing in a radial-lead can for through-hole mounting and secure mechanical retention.
• Pb-Free Materials and RoHS Compliance: Pb-free leadwire and Pb-free PET sleeve; compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies: Bulk filtering and ripple suppression where low impedance and specified ripple current are critical.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering: Energy storage and smoothing in power rails for industrial and electronic equipment.
• High-Temperature Designs: Circuits that require long-term stability at elevated temperatures, supported by a 5000-hour rating at +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Long Thermal Life: 5000-hour rating at +105°C helps sustain performance in thermally demanding installations.
• Designed for Switching Environments: Low impedance and documented ripple current at both low and high frequencies improve power-stage stability and reduce voltage ripple.
• Through-Hole Robustness: Radial lead, can-style package with 5 mm lead spacing provides reliable mechanical mounting for power assemblies.
• Regulatory and Material Compliance: Pb-free leadwire and PET sleeve plus RoHS compliance simplify material declarations and regulatory tracking.
• Compact Footprint: 12.5 mm diameter by 35.5 mm length balances capacitance with a space-conscious can size for many board layouts.
