Electrolytic Capacitor (25V) 470uF (5pcs)

The Electrolytic Capacitor (25V) 470uF is a polarised aluminium electrolytic capacitor with a capacitance of 470 µF and a voltage rating of 25 V, sold in a pack of 5. It is a popular value for smoothing the output of rectifiers and regulators, storing energy close to motors and LED strips, and reducing ripple and noise on 5 V and 12 V supplies.

Electrolytic Capacitor (25V) 470uF Specifications

• Capacitance: 470 µF

• Pack size: 5 pieces

Electrolytic Capacitor (25V) 470uF Applications

• Smoothing capacitors after a bridge rectifier
• Input and output capacitors for 7805 and LM317 regulator circuits
• Bulk decoupling for motor drivers, servos and LED strips
• Power filtering for audio amplifiers
• Repairing power supplies and adapters

What's in the Box

• 5 × 470 µF 25 V electrolytic capacitors

Tip: Watch the polarity: the stripe on the body marks the negative lead, and the longer lead on a new capacitor is positive. Use it on supplies up to about 20 V to leave a safety margin, and never connect it in reverse, as it can overheat and vent.
