UVP1H471MHD

The UVP1H471MHD is a Nichicon UVP series bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for entertainment and general‑purpose electronics. It delivers a 470 µF capacitance at a 50 V rating in a radial lead, can‑style package for through‑hole mounting.

Engineered for applications that require non‑polar operation, this capacitor combines a compact form factor with defined ripple handling and a proven lifecycle rating for reliable operation across typical consumer environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 470 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Voltage & Polarization — Rated for 50 V and provided in a bi‑polar (non‑polarized) configuration suitable for circuits that require reversal of polarity or AC coupling.
• Temperature & Endurance — Series category temperature range of −40°C to +85°C and a rated endurance of 2000 hours at 85°C (endurance test includes polarity inversion every 250 hours as defined in the series specification).
• Ripple Current Performance — Specified ripple current of 835 mA at 120 Hz and 1.252 A at 10 kHz for this value, supporting smoothing and decoupling tasks across common line and switching frequencies.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can package with 7.5 mm lead spacing for through‑hole PCB mounting; physical size L: 3.05 × D: 1.6 cm for compact layouts.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), meeting contemporary environmental requirements for electronic components.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Suited to consumer audio/video and home entertainment circuits where bi‑polar capacitors are required for signal coupling and filtering.
• General‑Purpose Consumer Electronics — Useful for decoupling and smoothing in AC‑coupled or non‑polarized circuit segments within consumer devices.
• Power and Signal Conditioning — Applied where controlled ripple handling (specified at 120 Hz and 10 kHz) helps stabilize analog and power rails in compact PCB designs.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑polar construction: Enables use in circuits that experience polarity reversal or require AC coupling without concern for polarity.
• Defined ripple capability: Rated ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz provide clear guidance for thermal and reliability planning in power‑conditioning applications.
• Robust temperature range and endurance: −40°C to +85°C operating range and 2000 h endurance at 85°C support sustained operation in typical consumer environments.
• Compact radial can package: Small L × D footprint and radial lead mounting simplify mechanical integration on through‑hole PCBs while maintaining necessary capacitance.
• RoHS compliant: Meets 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863 requirements for restricted substances in electronic components.
