UVY0J472MHD

The UVY0J472MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UVY series, offering 4.7 mF (4700 µF) capacitance at a 6.3 V rating. Designed for general-purpose electronic designs, it provides bulk capacitance in a compact φ12.5 × 20 mm can with radial mounting.

This part is built for wide temperature operation (−55°C to 105°C) and is specified with a 2000-hour endurance at 105°C, making it suitable where durable bulk energy storage and ripple handling are required within that temperature and lifetime envelope.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 4.7 mF (4700 µF) nominal capacitance with a 6.3 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing substantial local energy storage for low-voltage circuits.
• High Ripple Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.09 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple capability of approximately 1.254 A (10 kHz), supporting applications with significant AC ripple content.
• Temperature and Endurance — Operating range from −55°C to 105°C with a rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C, allowing designs to meet specified life targets under elevated temperature stress.
• Electrical Quality — Measured dissipation factor (tanδ) of 0.34 at 20°C, 120 Hz, and specified leakage current of 888.3 µA, useful for evaluating loss and self-discharge in sensitive designs.
• Radial Through-Hole Package — Compact φ12.5 × 20 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial leads (lead diameter 0.6 mm per UVY series table), simplifying PCB layout for through-hole assembly.
• Packaging & Production — Supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing and is in mass production; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in low-voltage DC power rails where 4700 µF at 6.3 V is required to stabilize supplies and absorb transient currents.
• Energy storage for local circuits — Local bulk energy reservoir for converters and regulator inputs to support transient load demands within its rated voltage and ripple limits.
• Industrial and consumer electronics — General-purpose use in control boards and equipment that operate across the specified −55°C to 105°C temperature range and require long-term endurance.

Unique Advantages

• High bulk capacitance in a compact can — 4700 µF in a φ12.5 × 20 mm footprint provides substantial capacitance where PCB space is limited.
• Specified ripple performance at multiple frequencies — Defined ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz help engineers size capacitors to meet AC stress requirements.
• Wide operating temperature span — −55°C to 105°C rating enables use across cold-start and elevated-temperature conditions within the stated limits.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature — Rated for 2000 hours at 105°C, supporting designs with defined lifetime expectations under thermal stress.
• Through-hole mechanical robustness — Radial lead configuration and standard 5 mm lead spacing ease mounting and mechanical retention for hand or wave solder processes.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliant, aiding conformance to applicable environmental directives.
