UPS2C4R7MPD

The UPS2C4R7MPD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPS series. It is a polarized, radial-lead component designed for general-purpose power applications, including switching power supplies where compact size and elevated voltage capability are required.

Key design attributes include a 4.7 µF capacitance at 160 V, a wide operating temperature range of −40 °C to 105 °C, and a defined endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C, delivering predictable performance for space-constrained power circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 4.7 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz).
• High Voltage Rating — Rated voltage: 160 V, suitable for higher-voltage DC link and power supply applications.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with physical dimensions φ8 × 11.5 mm and lead spacing of 3.5 mm (lead spacing tolerance ±0.5 mm).
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range −40 °C to 105 °C with a life/endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105 °C.
• Ripple and Leakage — Low-frequency ripple current 43 mA (120 Hz), high-frequency ripple current 68.8 mA (10 kHz); leakage current specified at 115.2 µA.
• Electrical Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz.
• Packaging Options — Supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit assembly and inventory needs.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.
• Product Status — End Of Life (EOL).

Typical Applications

• Switching power supplies — Compact decoupling and filtering in switch-mode converters where a 160 V rating is required.
• General-purpose power decoupling — Local energy storage and ripple suppression in higher-voltage DC circuits.
• Electronic modules and assemblies — Space-constrained power sections benefiting from a φ8 × 11.5 mm radial can with defined endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint: φ8 × 11.5 mm can size and radial-lead mounting minimize board area for power-stage components.
• High voltage capability: 160 V rating enables use in higher-voltage DC rails and separators where lower-voltage electrolytics are insufficient.
• Defined high-temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C provides a predictable lifecycle metric for thermal-stressed designs.
• Measured ripple handling: Specified low- and high-frequency ripple currents (43 mA at 120 Hz and 68.8 mA at 10 kHz) support both mains‑frequency and switching‑frequency noise management.
• Controlled electrical loss: tan δ = 0.15 at 20 °C, 120 Hz for predictable dissipation characteristics in AC/ripple conditions.
• RoHS compliant and packaged for production: Available in bulk or bag packing to match assembly requirements.
