UPJ2E470MHD

The UPJ2E470MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPJ series, designed for low-impedance performance in power applications. It delivers 470 µF at 25 V with ±20% tolerance and is specified for use in switching power supplies and other general-purpose power circuits.

Key value propositions include a 5000-hour load life at 105°C, discrete radial-can packaging (φ16 × 30.5 mm), and measurable ripple and leakage specifications for predictable power-filtering behavior.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 25 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low-Impedance UPJ Series Design — Series-level low-impedance topology intended for switching power supply use.
• Loss Characteristics (tan δ) — tanδ 0.2 (specified condition), providing a defined loss-angle parameter for design verification.
• Ripple Current Ratings — 225 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 360 mA at high frequency (200 kHz) to support smoothing and switching workloads.
• Leakage Current — 570 µA specified leakage current for predictable standby and steady-state behavior after voltage application.
• Reliability & Lifetime — Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C (load-life specification) to support prolonged high-temperature operation.
• Operating Temperature Range — −40°C to 105°C for broad environmental compatibility.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can-style package with physical size φ16 × 30.5 mm and 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance); supplied Bulk (No Terminal Forming) / Bag Packing.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Suited for input/output smoothing and energy buffering where low impedance and rated ripple capability are required.
• General-Purpose Power Circuits — Applicable where a radial-lead electrolytic capacitor with 470 µF/25 V and extended high-temperature life is needed.
• Industrial Electronics — For power filtering and bulk decoupling in equipment operating within −40°C to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Extended High-Temperature Life: 5000 hours at 105°C enables longer durability under elevated operating temperatures.
• Defined Ripple Capability: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple ratings (225 mA @ 120 Hz, 360 mA @ 200 kHz) let designers match the part to switching converter conditions.
• Predictable Leakage Behavior: Specified leakage current (570 µA) supports power-budgeting and standby loss estimates.
• Radial Can Form Factor: φ16 × 30.5 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify layout for through-hole designs and replacement parts.
• Series-Level Low Impedance: UPJ series characterization for switching supplies aids selection when low ESR/impedance attributes matter.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets common environmental regulation requirements for deployment in compliant products.
