UVZ1C471MPD

The UVZ1C471MPD is a Nichicon UVZ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor with 470 µF capacitance and a 16 V rating in a radial-lead, can-style package. It is designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require bulk capacitance in a compact form factor.

Key attributes include a wide operating temperature range of −55 °C to 105 °C, a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm size, and rated endurance of 1000 hours at 105 °C. The part is supplied as bulk or bag-packed and is in mass production.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance at a 16 V rated voltage, suitable where moderate energy storage and smoothing are required.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operating temperature from −55 °C to 105 °C, supporting designs that require extended temperature performance.
• Endurance — Life rating of 1000 hours at 105 °C (φD = 8), enabling reliable operation under sustained elevated temperature conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 315 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 472.5 mA at 10 kHz, supporting AC ripple handling across common frequency ranges.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 225.6 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.20 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, providing predictable loss characteristics for circuit budgeting.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead mounting with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), package diameter φ8 mm and length 11.5 mm for compact PCB layouts.
• Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronics — Use in circuits that require 470 µF bulk capacitance and 16 V rating, where a compact radial-lead can is appropriate.
• Temperature-challenging environments — Suited for designs needing component operation across −55 °C to 105 °C.
• Through-hole PCB assemblies — Radial-lead form and 3.5 mm lead spacing simplify placement and soldering in through-hole designs.

Unique Advantages

• Compact bulk capacitance — 470 µF in a φ8 × 11.5 mm can reduces board area compared with larger electrolytic options for similar capacitance.
• Wide operating temperature — −55 °C to 105 °C rating broadens applicability across demanding ambient conditions.
• Measured ripple specifications — Explicit low- and high-frequency ripple current values (315 mA at 120 Hz; 472.5 mA at 10 kHz) allow straightforward thermal and ripple budgeting.
• Defined endurance — 1000 hours at 105 °C provides a clear reliability expectation for thermal stress planning.
• Radial-lead convenience — Standard lead spacing and lead diameter support established through-hole assembly workflows.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory requirements for restricted substances.
