UPW2ER47MED

The UPW2ER47MED is a miniature, high‑reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPW series. It is a radial‑lead, polarized capacitor with a 0.47 µF (470 nF) capacitance and a 250 V rated voltage, engineered for compact power and filtering applications.

Designed for demanding environments, the part offers AEC‑Q200 qualification and specified endurance at elevated temperature, making it suitable for applications that require a compact footprint, controlled loss characteristics, and defined ripple and leakage performance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 0.47 µF (470 nF) capacitance with a rated voltage of 250 V and tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Miniature Radial‑Lead Package — Compact size φ6.3 × 11 mm with radial lead mounting and 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance) for through‑hole assembly in space‑constrained layouts.
• Low Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) specified as 0.15 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing predictable dissipation for power filtering.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current 12 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 19.2 mA at 10 kHz for decoupling and smoothing in switching circuits.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 51.75 µA under rated conditions for controlled standby and bias behavior.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature −40°C to 105°C with rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified — Meets AEC‑Q200 requirements, supporting use in applications requiring recognized passive component reliability.
• Packaging Options — Supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for flexible procurement and assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Compact decoupling and smoothing where low loss and predictable ripple handling are required.
• Automotive Electronic Modules — AEC‑Q200 qualification and temperature/endurance ratings make it suitable for automotive control and auxiliary electronics.
• Compact Power Filtering — Through‑hole radial-lead form and small footprint suit space‑constrained boards needing reliable bulk or local energy storage.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint: φ6.3 × 11 mm body size enables use where PCB space is limited without sacrificing voltage rating.
• Defined high‑temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C gives designers a clear reliability target for thermal stress planning.
• Engineered for power circuits: Low tanδ and specified ripple currents at both low and high frequency provide predictable performance in switching environments.
• Automotive‑grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating supports deployment in applications requiring recognized passive component standards.
• Through‑hole robustness: Radial leads and standard 2.5 mm spacing simplify assembly and mechanical retention in ruggedized assemblies.
