Overview of UAQ2G560MHD6 – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 56 µF / 400 V
The UAQ2G560MHD6 is a radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's UAQ series, offering 56 µF nominal capacitance at a 400 V rating. Designed for general‑purpose high‑voltage applications, it provides elevated ripple current capability and an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
This part incorporates safety features for abnormal voltage conditions and is RoHS compliant. Note: this product is scheduled for discontinuation and is not recommended for new designs.
Key Features
- 56 µF capacitance, 400 V rating — Suitable for high‑voltage smoothing and decoupling in general‑purpose circuits.
- High ripple current capability — 320 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 512 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling better AC handling under load.
- Leakage current specification — Leakage current of 996 µA as specified for this part.
- Wide operating temperature — Rated for -40°C to +105°C to support a broad range of environmental conditions.
- Endurance — 2000 hours at 105°C under rated D.C. bias plus rated ripple current.
- Impedance stability at low temperature (400 V) — Z(-25°C)/Z(+20°C) = 8 and Z(-40°C)/Z(+20°C) = 10, useful for low‑temperature performance planning.
- Radial lead, compact can package — Case size φ18 × 30.5 L with 7.5 mm lead spacing and ±0.5 mm tolerance for straightforward through‑hole mounting.
- Safety features — Improved safety for abnormally excessive voltage and a pressure relief vent designed to operate without flames or dispersion of case fragments.
- RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements.
- Polarized — Intended for polarized high‑voltage applications; observe polarity during installation.
Typical Applications
- High‑voltage power supplies — Smoothing and decoupling in 400 V class supply rails and power conversion stages.
- Power electronics and industrial equipment — Energy buffering and ripple reduction where elevated voltage and ripple handling are required.
- Maintenance and legacy systems — Replacement or repair of existing designs using the UAQ series form factor and specifications.
Unique Advantages
- High voltage capability: 400 V rating enables use in higher‑voltage modules without series stacking.
- Elevated ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support better thermal and electrical performance under AC loading.
- Wide temperature range and proven endurance: -40°C to +105°C operation and 2000 h endurance at 105°C support demanding thermal environments.
- Built‑in safety design: Pressure relief vent and improved abnormal‑voltage behavior reduce risk during fault conditions.
- Through‑hole radial package: Familiar radial can with 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies PCB layout and mechanical mounting for legacy and industrial boards.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for global environmental requirements.
Why Choose UAQ2G560MHD6?
UAQ2G560MHD6 targets designers and maintenance engineers who need a robust, general‑purpose aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial can for 400 V class circuits. Its combination of 56 µF capacitance, defined ripple current ratings across low and high frequencies, and an operating range to 105°C make it suitable for demanding power applications and repairs of existing systems.
Because the part is scheduled for discontinuation and not recommended for new designs, it is particularly appropriate for sustaining legacy assemblies or sourcing direct replacements where the UAQ series specification and form factor are already qualified.
