UVY2C471MHD

The UVY2C471MHD is a Nichicon UVY-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can package, offering 470 µF capacitance with a 160 V rated voltage. It is designed for general-purpose circuits that require bulk energy storage, decoupling and power filtering with a wide operating temperature range.

Key value comes from a compact φ18×40 mm case, robust ripple handling at both low and high frequencies, a wide −40°C to +105°C operating range, and a 2000 hour endurance rating at 105°C for reliable long-term operation.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 470 µF nominal with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C, suitable for bulk filtering and decoupling.
• High Voltage Rating — 160 V rated voltage for higher-voltage power rails and applications.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current 855 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 983.25 mA (10 kHz), supporting continuous ripple handling across frequency ranges.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 3108 µA, measured per the product’s defined test conditions.
• Operating Temperature & Endurance — Rated for −40°C to +105°C operation with a 2000 hour lifetime at 105°C, providing predictable behavior under elevated temperatures.
• Radial Lead Package — φ18 × 40 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial-lead mounting for through-hole assembly; available packaged in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Compliance & Production — RoHS compliant and listed as mass production status from Nichicon’s UVY series.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Bulk capacitance and rated voltage make it suitable for smoothing and filtering on higher-voltage supplies.
• Decoupling and energy storage — 470 µF capacity provides local energy reserve for transient loads and decoupling in general-purpose circuits.
• General-purpose electronics — Designed for broad use where a radial, polarized electrolytic capacitor with these voltage, temperature and endurance characteristics is required.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 160 V rating enables designs that require robust voltage headroom compared with lower-voltage electrolytics.
• Wide temperature range: −40°C to +105°C operation supports use in environments with significant thermal variation.
• Proven endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C provides predictable lifetime behavior for elevated-temperature applications.
• Frequency-flexible ripple handling: Distinct low- and high-frequency ripple current specifications (855 mA @120 Hz, 983.25 mA @10 kHz) give designers clear performance expectations across operational frequencies.
• Compact radial can: φ18×40 mm package with 7.5 mm lead spacing balances high capacitance with a space-efficient form factor for through-hole assemblies.
• RoHS compliant and production-ready: Mass-production status and RoHS compliance simplify procurement and regulatory planning.
