UPM1C472MHD6

The UPM1C472MHD6 is a miniature, radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPM series designed for high‑reliability applications. It delivers 4.7 mF (4700 µF) capacitance at a 16 V rating with low impedance construction optimized for demanding operating conditions.

Targeted for automotive and other high‑duty applications, this AEC‑Q200 qualified, RoHS‑compliant part offers long endurance (5000 hours at 105°C), high ripple current capability, and a wide operating temperature range of −55°C to 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 4700 µF (4.7 mF) with tolerance −20% to +20% for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Rated Voltage — 16 V nominal rating suitable for low‑voltage power rails.
• Low Impedance — Typical impedance 23 mΩ, supporting fast transient response and stable filtering.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 4.294 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 2.44 A (200 kHz) to handle demanding AC ripple loads.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current 2256 µA measured under product conditions.
• Long Endurance — Life rating of 5000 hours at 105°C (meets UPM series high‑reliability endurance criteria).
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55°C to 105°C for harsh environment tolerance.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead (can) package, size φ18 × 30.5 mm length (L: 3.05 × D: 1.8 cm), lead spacing 7.5 mm ±0.5 mm; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for regulated and automotive applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in automotive electronics where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high temperature endurance are required.
• Power supply and DC‑DC converter outputs — Low impedance and high ripple current capability support stable output filtering and transient response.
• High‑reliability embedded systems — Extended life at elevated temperature and wide operating range make it suitable for long‑life electronic assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Long high‑temperature endurance — 5000 hours at 105°C reduces replacement frequency and supports extended‑life designs.
• High ripple current handling — 4.294 A (120 Hz) and 2.44 A (200 kHz) ratings mitigate heating under AC stress and improve reliability in ripple‑intensive circuits.
• Low impedance for improved power stability — 23 mΩ impedance helps maintain voltage stability under transient loads and improves filtering performance.
• AEC‑Q200 qualification — Explicit qualification for automotive applications simplifies selection for designs that require industry‑recognized reliability standards.
• Compact radial can — φ18 × 30.5 mm size and radial lead format provide a compact solution for through‑hole PCB layouts with defined lead spacing (7.5 mm ±0.5 mm).
• RoHS compliant — Meets environmental regulatory requirements for lead‑free assemblies.
