Overview of UVR2C4R7MED – Miniature Radial Lead Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UVR2C4R7MED from Nichicon is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UVR series. It delivers 4.7 µF capacitance at a 160 V rated voltage in a compact φ6.3 × 11 mm can designed for general-purpose and entertainment-electronics applications.
This polarized, through‑hole component offers defined electrical characteristics—low-frequency and high-frequency ripple current ratings, measured dissipation factor, and a 2000-hour endurance at 85°C—making it suitable where a small, high-voltage electrolytic is required on the PCB.
Key Features
- Capacitance and Voltage — 4.7 µF nominal capacitance with a 160 V rated voltage and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Electrical Performance — Dissipation factor (tanδ) of 0.20 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; leakage current specified at 115.2 µA.
- Ripple Current Ratings — Low-frequency ripple current: 50 mA (120 Hz); high-frequency ripple current: 80 mA (10 kHz).
- Reliability / Endurance — Life rating of 2000 hours with rated voltage applied at 85°C; capacitance change within ±20% and leakage current meeting initial specified values after endurance.
- Package and Mounting — Radial lead (polarized) can; physical size φ6.3 × 11 mm (height seated max 11 mm), lead spacing 2.5 mm with ±0.5 mm tolerance.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.
- Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
- Product Status — End Of Life.
Typical Applications
- Entertainment Electronics — Suited to compact consumer audio/video equipment designs that require a miniature, high-voltage polarized electrolytic capacitor.
- General-Purpose Electronics — Use where a 4.7 µF, 160 V radial lead capacitor is needed for through‑hole boards or retrofit applications.
- Repair and Maintenance — Compact radial form factor and standard lead spacing make this part appropriate for board-level replacement in legacy or space-constrained assemblies.
Unique Advantages
- Compact high-voltage solution: 160 V rating in a φ6.3 × 11 mm can provides a small footprint for designs requiring elevated working voltage.
- Measured electrical clarity: Specified tanδ (0.20 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and defined leakage current (115.2 µA) enable straightforward selection and verification during design.
- Dual-frequency ripple guidance: Rated ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz offer design data for both low-frequency and higher-frequency circuit conditions.
- Proven endurance specification: 2000 hours at 85°C with defined post-test limits supports lifetime planning for moderate-temperature applications.
- Through‑hole convenience: Radial lead format and 2.5 mm lead spacing simplify manual assembly, prototyping, and field replacement.
- RoHS compliance: Meets RoHS requirements for regulated materials in commercial and consumer applications.
