Applications
The EEE-TC1A471UP is widely used in switching power supply output stages and DC-DC converter designs where 470 µF at 10 V provides sufficient bulk capacitance to suppress output ripple on 5 V and 3.3 V rails. It is also suitable for motor driver circuits, audio amplifier power rails, and industrial control boards requiring stable low-voltage energy storage. The compact 8 x 10.2 mm SMD form factor supports automated reflow assembly in high-volume consumer electronics manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 470 µF capacitance of EEE-TC1A471UP contribute to output ripple reduction in a 5 V switching supply?
A 470 µF capacitor on the output of a 5 V buck converter significantly reduces voltage ripple by absorbing the inductor current ripple between switching cycles. At a 100 kHz switching frequency, the EEE-TC1A471UP's low ESR combined with its 470 µF bulk capacitance helps keep output ripple below 10 mV peak-to-peak in typical designs, ensuring stable power for sensitive digital loads.
What PCB area does the EEE-TC1A471UP require and how does this compare to through-hole 470 µF capacitors?
The EEE-TC1A471UP occupies an 8 mm diameter footprint with a 10.2 mm height in SMD form, which allows placement on a single PCB side without through-hole drilling. Compared to a standard through-hole radial 470 µF 10 V electrolytic typically measuring 8 mm diameter x 11.5 mm height, the SMD version enables automated pick-and-place assembly and eliminates the need for wave soldering.
Which low-voltage power supply topologies benefit most from the EEE-TC1A471UP's 10 V rating and 470 µF value?
Designs using 3.3 V, 5 V, or dual-rail ±5 V power supplies benefit most from the EEE-TC1A471UP, as its 10 V rating provides at least 2x voltage headroom on these rails for reliability and ripple tolerance. Buck converters, linear regulator outputs, and USB power delivery filter stages all utilize 470 µF in this voltage class to handle load transients and maintain regulation within ±50 mV during dynamic current steps.
