UPM1C472MHD

The UPM1C472MHD is a miniature, high‑reliability radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UPM series. It delivers 4700 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ16 × 35.5 mm can, engineered for applications that require sustained performance across a wide temperature range.

Designed for demanding environments, the part combines AEC‑Q200 qualification, long endurance at elevated temperature, and substantial ripple current handling to support robust power rail smoothing and energy buffering in systems where lifecycle and thermal stability matter.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 4700 µF capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 20 mΩ to minimize voltage drop and improve transient response on power rails.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 4.382 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 2.49 A (200 kHz) to handle sustained AC stress in power circuits.
• Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Rated for 5000 hours at +105°C, supporting long life under thermal load.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range — −55°C to +105°C for extended environmental tolerance.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified — Automotive‑grade reliability verification for designs requiring industry-recognized component qualification.
• Polarized Radial Lead Package — Through‑hole radial can (φ16 × 35.5 mm) with 7.5 mm lead spacing and bulk/bag packing for standard assembly and handling.
• Tangent of Loss Angle (tan δ) — 0.22 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz (specified for 16 V rating), useful for AC loss and dissipation planning.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current 2256 µA to factor into standby and bias current budgets.
• RoHS Compliant — Compliant with RoHS requirements for lead‑free system designs.

Typical Applications

• Automotive systems — Suitable for automotive electronics where AEC‑Q200 qualification and 5000 h endurance at +105°C are required.
• Power electronics — Fits power rails and DC bus filtering tasks that demand high ripple current capability and low impedance.
• Industrial and harsh‑environment equipment — Wide −55°C to +105°C operating range and long life support deployment in thermally stressed environments.

Unique Advantages

• Long elevated‑temperature life: 5000 hours at +105°C provides predictable aging characteristics for maintenance planning and reliability targets.
• High ripple handling: Combined low‑frequency and high‑frequency ripple current ratings enable use across switching and line‑frequency power stages.
• Low impedance performance: 20 mΩ impedance helps reduce voltage ripple and improves transient response in power supplies.
• Automotive‑grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating supports designs targeting automotive and other high‑reliability markets.
• Compact, serviceable package: Radial lead can with 7.5 mm lead spacing offers a robust, through‑hole mount option for repairable and high‑vibration assemblies.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity simplifies integration into regulatory‑sensitive product lines.
