VISHAY 470µF 50V Radial Electrolytic Capacitor, 5mm Lead

The VISHAY 170 RVZ Series radial miniature aluminium electrolytic capacitor offers a combination of very long useful life, high stability, and outstanding reliability. Designed as a low-impedance component, it features very low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and excellent ripple current capability within a compact case size, making it an efficient and space-saving solution for demanding circuits.

This capacitor is constructed as a polarised aluminium electrolytic type with a non-solid electrolyte. It comes in a cylindrical aluminium case with an integrated pressure relief vent and is insulated with a distinctive blue sleeve. Its radial leaded design facilitates straightforward PCB mounting. The component is charge and discharge proof, enhancing its durability in switching applications.

A key feature is its AEC-Q200 qualification, certifying it for use in automotive applications where consistent performance under harsh conditions is required. With a specified operational lifetime of 7000 hours at a maximum temperature of 105°C and a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C, it is built for resilience in challenging environments.

Typical Applications

This high-performance capacitor is ideally suited for power supply circuits across multiple industries, providing essential smoothing, filtering, and buffering functions. Its robust specifications make it a preferred choice for general industrial equipment, electronic data processing (EDP) systems, audio-video hardware, automotive electronics, and telecommunications infrastructure.
