Electrolytic Capacitor 47µF 35V Ø6.3x11.2mm, radial can

Electrolytic Capacitor 47µF 35V Ø6.3x11.2mm, radial can is a compact aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a cylindrical radial-lead package. It provides 47 microfarads of capacitance and a rated DC voltage of 35 volts, in a physical size of approximately 6.3 mm diameter and 11.2 mm height. The component is intended for common roles in electronic circuits such as power supply filtering, decoupling of voltage rails and short-term energy storage; its small footprint fits tight printed circuit board layouts and direct replacement of similarly sized radial capacitors.

Advantages

This radial electrolytic capacitor combines moderate capacitance with a 35 V rating suitable for many low- to medium-voltage applications. The cylindrical can and radial lead format simplify through-hole assembly and soldering, while the compact Ø6.3×11.2 mm size helps save board area. The construction provides stable capacitance for smoothing and decoupling tasks, and the part is commonly available for like-for-like replacements in repairs and prototype builds.

Suitable for

• Power supply ripple filtering in DC circuits
• Decoupling and stabilization of voltage rails in analog and digital boards
• Audio coupling and supply smoothing in consumer audio equipment
• General-purpose energy storage for transient support in small devices
• Repair and replacement of existing radial electrolytic capacitors of similar size

Key specifications

• Capacitance: 47 µF
• Rated voltage (DC): 35 V
• Package type: radial aluminum electrolytic (cylindrical can)
• Diameter × height: Ø6.3 mm × 11.2 mm (approx.)
• Polarity: polarized (electrolytic capacitor with positive and negative leads)
• Lead orientation: radial leads for through-hole mounting

How to use

Install the capacitor on the PCB observing polarity markings: the negative lead is typically marked on the can and must be connected to the circuit ground or lower potential. Ensure hole spacing and lead length match the component footprint and trim leads after soldering. Use appropriate soldering temperature and time to avoid heat damage; allow the part to cool before applying power. Consider pre-conditioning or voltage-derating according to the circuit design: operate below the rated voltage when long life or high reliability is required.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, keep the operating voltage below the 35 V rating when feasible, maintain ambient temperatures within the manufacturer’s suggested range, and allow adequate clearance from heat sources. Replace with the same capacitance, equal or higher voltage rating and similar physical dimensions when performing repairs to preserve circuit behavior.
