RPS0G471MCN1GS

The RPS0G471MCN1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s RPS series. It provides 470 µF capacitance at a 4 V rating in a compact φ10 × 7.7 mm SMD can designed for general-purpose electronic applications.

Engineered for applications that require high ripple handling and low equivalent series resistance, this device combines a wide operating temperature range (−55°C to 105°C) with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 4 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low ESR — ESR of 22 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, enabling efficient high-frequency performance and reduced heat generation.
• High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current of 380 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current up to 3.8 A (300 kHz), supporting demanding switching power applications.
• Leakage & Loss — Leakage current specified at 376 µA (after 2 minutes, 20°C) and tan δ (loss tangent) of 0.12 at 20°C/120 Hz for predictable energy loss characteristics.
• Robust Thermal Endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to +105°C with a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage.
• Compact SMD Package — Radial can SMD package (φ10 × 7.7 mm) supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for SMT assembly.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply output filtering — Low ESR (22 mΩ) and high ripple current capability (up to 3.8 A at 300 kHz) help smooth switching-regulator outputs and reduce voltage ripple.
• Decoupling on high-frequency rails — High-frequency ripple performance and a compact SMD can make this capacitor suitable for local decoupling where space is limited.
• Energy storage / hold-up — 470 µF capacitance combined with controlled leakage current supports short-term energy storage in compact designs.
• General-purpose embedded electronics — Designed for board-level integration in consumer, industrial, and communication equipment requiring reliable capacitive bulk or decoupling elements.

Unique Advantages

• High AC ripple tolerance: Rated ripple current up to 3.8 A at 300 kHz enables stable operation in high-frequency switching environments.
• Low thermal losses: Low ESR (22 mΩ at 100 kHz) reduces internal heating and improves efficiency under dynamic load conditions.
• Compact SMD can: φ10 × 7.7 mm radial can SMD package provides significant capacitance in a space-efficient footprint for surface-mount assemblies.
• Wide operating range: −55°C to +105°C rating and 2000-hour endurance at 105°C provide predictable performance across temperature extremes.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing to support automated SMT assembly and storage handling.
