This 470 nanofarad (nF) electrolytic capacitor is rated for 63V DC and designed for through-hole mounting (RB - PC Mount). Electrolytic types use a liquid or gel electrolyte to achieve high capacitance values, making them indispensable for filtering applications where space is less restrictive than SMD.
These polarized capacitors are commonly used in power supplies to effectively reduce voltage ripple and provide essential input/output smoothing as a low-pass filter. Because they are polarized, it is critical that the positive terminal always receives higher voltage than the negative terminal to prevent damage. This is a durable, high-value component we recommend for stable power conditioning circuits
