UPS1C470MDD

The UPS1C470MDD is a Nichicon UPS-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a miniature radial-lead package designed for low-impedance power applications. It provides 47 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating with a compact φ5 × 11 mm can and 2 mm lead spacing.

Targeted at switching power supplies and general-purpose electronic equipment, the part delivers defined ripple handling, wide temperature operation from −55°C to 105°C, and a specified endurance rating to support reliable performance in constrained, board-mounted power circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 47 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low Loss/Dissipation — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting stable AC performance in power circuits.
• Ripple Current Specification — Low-frequency ripple current of 27.2 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 160 mA (10 kHz), enabling defined AC load handling across common switching frequencies.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 22.56 µA (after 1 minute at 20°C), aiding predictable bias behavior in DC circuits.
• Reliability & Endurance — Rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C, suitable for applications requiring defined long-term thermal endurance.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55°C to 105°C to accommodate a broad set of environmental conditions.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package (φ5 × 11 mm) with 2 mm lead spacing; available in bulk or bag packing (no terminal forming).
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low-impedance miniature electrolytic capacitor suited for output filtering and decoupling in compact switch-mode power circuits.
• General-Purpose Electronic Equipment — Provides bulk decoupling and smoothing for a wide range of board-mounted power rails and control electronics.
• Compact PCB Power Modules — Small diameter and short length make it suitable for space-constrained power modules and radial-lead assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint: φ5 × 11 mm can and 2 mm lead spacing enable use where board space is limited without sacrificing capacitance.
• Defined ripple capability: Published low- and high-frequency ripple currents (27.2 mA at 120 Hz and 160 mA at 10 kHz) allow designers to size components to expected switching loads.
• Wide operating temperature: −55°C to 105°C range supports deployment across varied thermal environments.
• Engineered for endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C provides a measurable reliability baseline for thermal stress planning.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tanδ and leakage current figures assist in accurate circuit modeling and bias budgeting.
• RoHS compliant: Meets regulatory requirements for lead-free assemblies.
