URZ2A470MPD

The URZ2A470MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s URZ series, designed for compact, low-profile general-purpose applications. It provides 47 µF capacitance at a 100 V rated voltage with polarized construction and through-hole radial mounting.

Key value comes from a combination of compact dimensions (φ10 × 12.5 mm), a wide operating temperature range (−55 °C to 105 °C), and a demonstrated endurance of 1000 hours at 105 °C—making it suitable for power filtering, smoothing and decoupling where space and thermal resiliency matter.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 47 µF nominal with tolerance of −20% to +20% (±20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• High Voltage Rating — Rated for 100 V operation to support higher-voltage general-purpose circuits.
• Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.08 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz), indicating low dissipation for the rated conditions.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 165 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 330 mA (10 kHz); datasheet frequency coefficients for 47 µF show increased allowable ripple at higher frequencies (e.g., coefficient 2.00 at 10 kHz).
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 141 µA; datasheet leakage-current limits are also defined by standard CV-based criteria for measurement at 20 °C.
• Thermal and Endurance — Operating range −55 °C to 105 °C with endurance specified as 1000 hours at 105 °C under rated voltage.
• Compact Radial Package — Can-style radial package, dimensions φ10 × 12.5 mm, lead spacing 5.0 mm (±0.5 mm), available in bulk or bag packing.
• Series Attributes — Part of the URZ series, characterized in the datasheet as compact, low-profile and suitable for wide temperature-range applications.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Power Supplies — General-purpose smoothing and decoupling in higher-voltage supply rails where a compact 100 V capacitor is required.
• Embedded and Control Electronics — Local energy storage and ripple suppression in control modules that operate across a wide temperature range.
• General-Purpose Electronics — Through-hole designs needing a compact, polarized capacitor for filtering, timing decoupling, or bulk bypass duties.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, Low-Profile Footprint: φ10 × 12.5 mm can fits into space-constrained designs while retaining a 100 V rating.
• Wide Temperature Range: −55 °C to 105 °C operation supports designs exposed to broad ambient conditions.
• Proven Endurance: 1000 hours at 105 °C under rated voltage provides predictable life-cycle behavior for thermal stress scenarios.
• Defined Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz, plus series frequency coefficients, let engineers size capacitors for expected AC stress across frequency.
• Through-Hole Reliability: Radial lead construction and standard 5 mm lead spacing simplify mounting and replacement in hand-assembled or repairable products.
• Available Packaging Options: Offered in Bulk (no terminal forming) or Bag packing to support prototyping and production ordering preferences.
