UPM1C471MPD

The UPM1C471MPD is a miniature, radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPM series, designed for low impedance and reliable long‑life operation. It delivers 470 µF capacitance at 16 V in a compact φ8 × 20 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing.

Engineered for demanding environments, the part offers a broad operating temperature range and extended endurance, making it suitable for applications that require sustained ripple handling and stability under elevated temperatures.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF capacitance rated at 16 V with ±20% tolerance for consistent energy storage and smoothing.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 90 mΩ helps minimize voltage drop and improve transient response in power rails.
• Loss Tangent (tan δ) — tanδ of 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting predictable AC performance.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 381.3 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 615 mA (1 kHz) for effective filtering under AC load.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 225.6 µA for controlled stand‑by losses and predictable bias behavior.
• High Temperature Endurance — Rated life 3000 hours at 105°C, meeting endurance requirements for prolonged elevated‑temperature service.
• Wide Operating Temperature — −55°C to +105°C operational range for use across harsh environments.
• Compact Radial Package — φ8 × 20 mm can, radial lead mounting with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), suitable for through‑hole assemblies.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified — AEC‑Q200 rating supports use in applications where industry automotive qualification is required.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for restricted substances.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing for production and prototyping needs.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — AEC‑Q200 qualification and 3000 h endurance at 105°C make this capacitor suitable for automotive control modules and other vehicle electronics requiring elevated‑temperature reliability.
• High‑reliability power systems — Low impedance and specified ripple handling support power supply smoothing and energy buffering in long‑life industrial and embedded systems.
• Space‑constrained designs — The miniature φ8 × 20 mm can and radial lead form factor suit compact boards and modules where footprint and height are limited.

Unique Advantages

• Proven endurance at high temperature — Specified 3000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long‑term performance in hot operating environments.
• Reliable ripple handling — Defined low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings allow designers to size the capacitor confidently for AC stress conditions.
• Compact, board‑friendly form — Small can diameter and radial lead spacing simplify placement in tight layouts while retaining through‑hole mechanical robustness.
• Low ESR/Impedance — 90 mΩ impedance reduces power loss and improves voltage stability on decoupling and bulk storage nodes.
• Automotive‑grade qualification — AEC‑Q200 rating supports integration into automotive and other regulated applications requiring component qualification.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliance supports use in designs targeting regulated markets.
