## Key Features

### High - Capacity Capacitance
One of the standout features of the P405CE474M series is its high - capacity capacitance. With a capacitance value of 470nF (as indicated by the code 474, where the first two digits are the significant figures and the third digit is the multiplier), these components can store a substantial amount of electrical charge. This high capacitance makes them suitable for applications that require energy storage, such as power supply filtering, where they can smooth out voltage fluctuations and provide a stable power source to sensitive electronic circuits.

### Excellent Electrical Performance
The P405CE474M series exhibits excellent electrical characteristics. It has a low equivalent series resistance (ESR), which minimizes power losses and heat generation during operation. This low ESR also allows for efficient charging and discharging cycles, enabling the components to respond quickly to changes in electrical demand. Additionally, the series offers a high quality factor (Q), which indicates a low level of energy dissipation and a high degree of resonance stability. This is particularly important in applications such as tuned circuits and oscillators, where precise frequency control is required.

### Wide Operating Temperature Range
These components are designed to operate reliably over a wide temperature range. They can withstand extreme temperatures, from - 55°C to +125°C, making them suitable for use in harsh environments. Whether it's in automotive electronics, where components are exposed to high under - hood temperatures, or in aerospace applications, where they may encounter extreme cold during flight, the P405CE474M series can maintain its performance and integrity.

### High Voltage Rating
The P405CE474M series comes with a high voltage rating, which allows it to handle large electrical potentials without breakdown. This high voltage tolerance makes it suitable for use in high - power applications, such as industrial power supplies and electric vehicle charging systems. It provides an extra layer of safety and reliability, ensuring that the components can operate under demanding electrical conditions without failure.

## Physical Design

### Compact Size
The components in the P405CE474M series are designed with a compact form factor. This small size makes them easy to integrate into printed circuit boards (PCBs) with limited space. Whether it's a densely populated consumer electronics device or a miniaturized industrial control system, the compact design of these components allows for more efficient use of board space and enables the development of smaller, more portable products.

### Robust Construction
The P405CE474M series features a robust construction that can withstand mechanical stress, vibration, and shock. The components are encapsulated in a durable housing material that provides protection against environmental factors such as moisture, dust, and chemicals. This robust construction ensures a long service life and high reliability, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance.

## Applications

### Power Supply Systems
In power supply systems, the P405CE474M series is used for filtering and energy storage. It helps to smooth out the DC output voltage, reducing ripple and noise. This is crucial for ensuring the stable operation of electronic devices, as excessive ripple can cause malfunctions and damage to sensitive components. The high - capacity capacitance and low ESR of these components make them particularly effective in power supply filtering applications.
