UWZ1C471MCL1GS

The UWZ1C471MCL1GS is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic chip capacitor designed for wide temperature operation and automated assembly. It delivers 470 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact radial-can SMD package, intended for applications where robust temperature performance and reflow compatibility are required.

Key value propositions include a wide operating temperature range (–55 to +105°C), compatibility with high-temperature reflow (260°C peak), AEC-Q200 qualification, and RoHS compliance, making it suitable for demanding electronic assemblies and automotive-grade designs.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 470 µF capacitance at a 16 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance; polarized design for conventional DC filtering and energy storage roles.
• Ripple Handling — Specified ripple current: 210 mA at 120 Hz and 315 mA at 10 kHz, enabling AC ripple endurance across common power frequencies.
• Temperature and Endurance — Operating range of –55°C to +105°C with rated endurance of 1000 hours at 105°C, ensuring stable performance in elevated ambient conditions.
• Reflow and Assembly Compatibility — Designed to withstand 260°C peak reflow; recommended reflow condition 260°C peak for 5 seconds (with specific allowances in the series datasheet), and applicable to automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape.
• Quality and Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting use in regulated environments and qualification-driven programs.
• Package and Footprint — Radial, can-style SMD package with a compact footprint (L: 1.0 cm × D: 0.8 cm) and recommended land pattern 8.3 × 8.3 mm for surface-mount assembly.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and wide temperature range support use in automotive electronic systems that require robust capacitors.
• Surface-mount production lines — Designed for automated placement (carrier tape feed) and compatible with high-temperature reflow processes used in modern PCB assembly.
• Temperature-challenged environments — Operation from –55°C to +105°C and 1000-hour endurance at 105°C make this capacitor suitable where extended temperature reliability is required.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides documented characterization for use in vehicle electronics and qualification programs.
• Wide temperature envelope: Guaranteed operation from –55°C to +105°C helps maintain capacitance and reliability across extreme ambient conditions.
• Reflow-compatible assembly: Rated for 260°C peak reflow, enabling integration into lead-free, high-temperature PCB assembly workflows without special handling.
• High capacitance in a compact SMD package: 470 µF at 16 V in a radial can SMD footprint provides substantial capacitance while conserving board area.
• Long-term endurance: Specified for 1000 hours at 105°C, offering predictable performance over extended elevated-temperature exposure periods.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmentally restricted designs and procurement requirements.
