UVY1J471MHD

The UVY1J471MHD is a radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UVY series, offering 470 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating in a compact φ12.5 × 20 mm can. It is a polarized, general-purpose capacitor designed for applications that require reliable bulk capacitance with a wide operating temperature range.

Key value propositions include a broad temperature range (−55 °C to 105 °C), defined endurance characteristics (2000 hours at 105 °C), and high ripple-current capability across low and high frequencies for demanding power-circuit environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 470 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 63 V rated voltage for medium-voltage smoothing and energy-storage needs.
• Temperature Range: Rated to operate from −55 °C to 105 °C, supporting designs that require wide temperature endurance.
• Endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C life rating, meeting the series endurance specification for sustained high-temperature operation.
• Ripple Current Performance: 640 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 960 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective ripple-handling across a range of switching and line conditions.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 888.3 µA after initial voltage application, useful for system-level leakage budgeting.
• Package & Mounting: Radial lead can (φ12.5 × 20 mm) with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); supplied in Bulk (no terminal forming) or Bag Packing for flexible assembly options.
• Regulatory: RoHS compliant as noted for the UVY series.
• Polarized Device: Conventional polarized aluminum electrolytic design for correct polarity-aware applications.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics: Intended for general-purpose use where polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitors are required.
• General-Purpose Power Circuits: Suited to general-purpose power-supply smoothing and energy-storage roles within its rated voltage and ripple limits.
• General-Purpose Industrial Equipment: Applicable to general-purpose industrial designs that need robust capacitance across a wide temperature range.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced capacitance and voltage: 470 µF at 63 V provides substantial energy storage while remaining compact (φ12.5 × 20 mm).
• Wide operating temperature: −55 °C to 105 °C rating supports deployment in environments with wide thermal variation.
• Long endurance at high temperature: 2000-hour rating at 105 °C offers predictable lifetime behavior for high-temperature applications.
