UVZ0J471MED

The UVZ0J471MED is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UVZ series, designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require a compact, wide-temperature capacitor. It provides 470 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 6.3 V in a φ6.3 × 11 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing.

Key value propositions include a wide operating temperature range (−55 °C to +105 °C), measurable low-frequency and high-frequency ripple performance, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable for space-constrained board-level power and smoothing tasks across varied temperature environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 470 µF nominal with a capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Rated Voltage & Polarization — Rated at 6.3 VDC; polarized radial-lead construction for straightforward through-hole mounting.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Operates from −55 °C to +105 °C with a rated life/endurance of 1000 hours at 105 °C.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 230 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 345 mA at 10 kHz, providing usable ripple handling across frequency ranges.
• Loss Angle (tan δ) — tan δ specified at 0.28 (measurement condition: 20 °C, 120 Hz) for the 6.3 V rating.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 88.83 µA, suitable for many general-purpose power applications.
• Compact Radial Can Package — Size φ6.3 × 11 mm with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance) and bulk/bag packing options for easy handling and assembly.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directive requirements.
• Lifecycle Status — Product status: End Of Life.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Use as a board-level smoothing or decoupling capacitor where 470 µF at 6.3 V and compact size are required.
• Compact consumer and industrial electronics — Suited for small power-supply rails and auxiliary circuits that need wide temperature capability and radial through-hole mounting.
• Temperature-challenged environments — Applications that must operate between −55 °C and +105 °C while retaining capacitance and endurance characteristics.

Unique Advantages

• Wide operating temperature window — Rated from −55 °C to +105 °C, enabling use across a broad range of environmental conditions.
• Compact footprint — φ6.3 × 11 mm can with tight lead spacing (2.5 mm) for space-constrained PCB layouts.
• Frequency-flexible ripple handling — Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz (230 mA and 345 mA respectively) to support low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Documented electrical loss — tan δ = 0.28 at 20 °C, 120 Hz, allowing engineers to assess dissipation for thermal and stability calculations.
• Traceable leakage specification — Leakage current listed at 88.83 µA to assist in bias and standby current budgeting.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS-compliant construction to meet environmental requirements.
