UVR2C470MHD

The UVR2C470MHD is a radial lead, polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a nominal capacitance of 47 µF and a rated voltage of 160 V. It belongs to Nichicon's UVR series of miniature-sized capacitors and is intended for general-purpose and entertainment electronics applications where compact size and reliable power filtering are required.

Designed for through-hole mounting, this part combines a small footprint (φ12.5 × 20 mm / 1.25 cm diameter × 2.0 cm length) with a specified endurance of 2000 hours at 85 °C, making it suitable for applications that demand stable performance across a −40 °C to 85 °C operating range.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 47 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 160 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% for predictable energy storage and filtering.
• Radial Lead Package — Through-hole radial can (φ12.5 × 20 mm) with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and 0.6 mm lead diameter, simplifying PCB layout for discrete power and filter circuits.
• Ripple Handling — Low-frequency ripple current of 270 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 432 mA at 10 kHz to support smoothing and decoupling in power supplies and signal circuits.
• Loss & Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.2 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, and a specified leakage current of 400.8 µA for consistent electrical characteristics.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range −40 °C to 85 °C with a rated life of 2000 hours at 85 °C, providing durability for sustained thermal exposure.
• Compliance & Packaging — RoHS compliant and available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; product is in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Compact radial package and 160 V rating suit power filtering and decoupling tasks in consumer audio/video and set-top equipment.
• General Purpose Power Supply Filtering — Use for smoothing and ripple suppression in mid-voltage power rails where 47 µF capacitance and the specified ripple currents are required.
• Signal Conditioning — Provides stable capacitance and controlled loss (tan δ) for analog and mixed-signal circuits requiring dependable decoupling.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, Through‑Hole Form Factor: φ12.5 × 20 mm size and radial leads enable tight PCB layouts while preserving robust mechanical mounting.
• Mid‑Voltage Capability: 160 V rated voltage supports applications above typical low-voltage rails without increasing component count.
• Broad Temperature Range and Endurance: −40 °C to 85 °C operating range with 2000 hours at 85 °C offers predictable lifetime behavior in sustained thermal conditions.
• Measured Electrical Stability: Specified tan δ (0.2 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and defined leakage current (400.8 µA) provide engineers with verifiable parameters for circuit design and reliability calculations.
• High-Frequency Performance: 432 mA ripple current rating at 10 kHz supports higher-frequency decoupling needs in switching and regulator circuits.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in designs requiring restricted-substance conformance.
