Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance of -20% to +20% at a rated voltage of 6.3 V.
• Conductive polymer construction — Solid electrolytic, conductive polymer architecture as part of the RPS series for stable electrical characteristics.
• Low ESR — ESR of 15 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, enabling efficient high-frequency performance and reduced losses.
• High ripple-current capability — Rated ripple current 430 mA at 120 Hz and 4.3 A at 300 kHz (high-frequency rating), supporting heavy AC stress and filtering duties.
• Loss tangent (tan δ) — tan δ of 0.15 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, useful for AC performance evaluation.
• Leakage current — Specified leakage current of 592 µA (after 2 minutes at 20°C), enabling predictable bias behavior.
• Reliability and lifetime — Endurance rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage conditions per series specification.
• Package & mounting — Surface-mount radial can (φ8 × 11.7 mm) with surface mount land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm; supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture proof packing for automated assembly.
• Wide operating temperature — Specified for −55°C to +105°C operation.
• RoHS compliant — Meets the RoHS directive as indicated in the series documentation.
• Frequency ripple coefficient — Frequency coefficients for rated ripple current (120 Hz: 0.10; 1 kHz: 0.45; 10 kHz: 0.50; 100 kHz: 1.00; 300 kHz: 1.00) to help size ripple handling across frequency bands.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering and bulk decoupling — Low ESR (15 mΩ) and high ripple capability (up to 4.3 A at 300 kHz) make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and bulk energy storage in compact power modules.
• High-frequency switching regulators — Frequency coefficients and low-loss polymer construction support high-frequency decoupling where stable ESR and ripple performance are required.
• General-purpose electronic equipment — Rated for −55°C to +105°C and supplied in tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly in a wide range of commercial and industrial products.

Unique Advantages

• Measurable low-loss performance: 15 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and tan δ = 0.15 (20°C, 120 Hz) provide quantifiable electrical characteristics for design verification.
• High ripple handling at high frequency: 4.3 A ripple at 300 kHz (frequency coefficient = 1.00) lets designers rely on the part for demanding switching applications.
• Compact SMD radial can: φ8 × 11.7 mm package balances capacitance density and PCB space for compact power boards.
• Robust thermal endurance: Rated 2000 hours at 105°C for predictable lifetime under elevated operating temperatures.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing supports automated pick-and-place and reflow processing.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity provides material compliance for many commercial and industrial supply chains.
