URS1C472MHD

The URS1C472MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s URS series, providing 4,700 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It combines a compact, low-profile radial can with specifications tailored for general-purpose electronic designs that require substantial bulk capacitance in a through‑hole package.

Key value comes from its high ripple current capability, extended 2,000‑hour rated life at 85°C, and an operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for a wide range of conventional electronic equipment where reliable energy storage and smoothing are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 4.7 mF (4,700 µF) rated at 16 V with ±20% tolerance for predictable bulk energy storage.
• High Ripple Current Handling — Rated ripple current of 1.77 A at 120 Hz and 2.035 A at 10 kHz to support AC ripple and transient loading scenarios.
• Leakage & Loss — Specified leakage current of 2,256 µA and a tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.26 as provided for targeted performance characterization.
• Reliability & Lifetime — Endurance rating of 2,000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage, with performance criteria defined for capacitance, tan δ and leakage after the endurance test.
• Temperature Range — Operates across −40°C to +85°C to accommodate typical industrial and consumer operating environments.
• Radial Through‑Hole Package — Radial lead configuration with 7.5 mm lead spacing in a φ18 × 20L can for easy through‑hole mounting and mechanical stability.
• Packaging & Availability — Supplied in bulk/bag packaging and currently in mass production for volume designs.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose Electronic Equipment — Use where a 4,700 µF, 16 V radial electrolytic capacitor is required for bulk capacitance in through‑hole assemblies.
• Power Supply Filtering — Suitable for smoothing and ripple attenuation tasks consistent with its rated ripple current and leakage characteristics.
• Decoupling & Energy Storage — Provides local energy buffering for circuits requiring stable supply during transient loads, backed by a 2,000‑hour endurance at 85°C.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, Low‑Profile Can — φ18 × 20L radial can balances high capacitance with a space-conscious footprint.
• Strong Ripple Current Performance — High-rated ripple currents at both low and high frequencies help maintain reliable operation under AC and switching conditions.
• Wide Temperature Range — −40°C to +85°C operation supports deployment across varied environments without additional thermal qualification.
• Proven Endurance — 2,000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage gives clear metrics for design lifetime planning.
• Through‑Hole Mounting Simplicity — Radial lead form factor with 7.5 mm lead spacing eases PCB layout and assembly for conventional manufacturing processes.
• Production Ready — Bulk/bag packaging and mass production status simplify procurement for volume designs.
