Other ways it's marked

On schematics and parts lists, the same capacitor appears as 470p, 0.47 nF or 0.00047 µF.

Where it's used

Values below 1 nF are typical in radio circuits, oscillators and high-frequency filters, usually as C0G (NP0) ceramic capacitors, which stay stable with temperature.

Frequently asked questions

What is the value of a 471 capacitor?

470 pF, the same as 0.47 nF or 0.00047 µF.

Is 471 the same as 470p?

Yes. 471 is the 3-digit code and 470p is the letter code for the same 470 pF.

What does the letter after 471 mean?

It's the tolerance: 471J is ±5%, 471K is ±10% and 471M is ±20%.

Does the code 471 show the voltage?

No. The voltage is printed separately (such as 50V, or a code like 2A, which means 100 V) or only given in the datasheet. Replace it with a capacitor rated for the same voltage or higher.
