UPW1J470MPD

The UPW1J470MPD is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPW series, optimized for low impedance and high reliability. It delivers 47 µF at 63 V in a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm can and is designed for power-filtering and smoothing in demanding environments, including automotive electronics and switching power supplies.

With an extended temperature range and AEC-Q200 rating, this capacitor is suited for designs that require long-term thermal endurance and stable ripple performance across a wide frequency band.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 47 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 63 V and a tolerance of −20% to +20% for predictable energy storage in power circuits.
• Low Loss and Impedance: tanδ = 0.09 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and impedance of 684 mΩ to support efficient filtering and reduced power dissipation.
• Ripple Handling: Low-frequency ripple current 121.5 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 405 mA at 10 kHz, supporting a range of switching and ripple conditions.
• Leakage Current: Typical leakage current 88.83 µA, aiding in predictable bias behaviour after voltage application.
• Thermal Endurance: Rated operating temperature −55°C to 105°C with an endurance of 3000 hours at 105°C for long-term reliability under elevated temperature stress.
• Package and Mounting: Radial lead, polarized can with dimensions φ8 × 11.5 mm, lead spacing 3.5 mm (±0.5 mm), and standard bulk/bag packing for through-hole assembly.
• Automotive Reliability: AEC-Q200 rating, indicating suitability for applications requiring industry-recognized reliability standards.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk and decoupling capacitor for smoothing output and reducing ripple in switching regulators and converters.
• Automotive Electronics — Power filtering and energy storage in automotive control modules and electronic subsystems where AEC-Q200 qualification is required.
• DC-DC Converters — Input/output filtering and transient suppression in compact, high-density power modules.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, space-saving footprint: φ8 × 11.5 mm can size provides 47 µF capacitance in a miniature form factor for dense board layouts.
• Designed for ripple performance: Measured ripple ratings at both low and high frequencies (121.5 mA @120 Hz, 405 mA @10 kHz) support a wide range of switching frequencies.
• High-temperature endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C allows for longer service life in thermally demanding applications.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating offers documented reliability for automotive and similarly demanding environments.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Low tanδ (0.09) and specified leakage current provide stable performance for precision power designs.
• Through-hole robustness: Radial lead mounting simplifies mechanical retention and repairability in serviceable equipment.
