UBX1C102MHL

The UBX1C102MHL from Nichicon is a high-reliability, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UBX series, designed for long-life operation in elevated-temperature environments. This miniature laminated-case part delivers 1000 µF at 16 V in a compact φ16 × 25 mm can and is available in bulk or bag packing.

With an operating temperature range of −55 °C to +150 °C and AEC-Q200 compliance, the UBX1C102MHL targets demanding applications that require sustained high-temperature endurance and reliable ripple handling.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF (1 mF) nominal capacitance rated at 16 V with tolerance −20% to +20% for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Designed for −55 °C to +150 °C operation with 2000 hours life/ endurance at 150 °C, supporting extended service in hot environments.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 536 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 800 mA at 100 kHz, enabling robust filtering under AC ripple stress.
• Leakage and Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 480 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.16 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, for predictable loss and self-heating behavior.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead can in φ16 × 25 L format with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), suitable for through-hole mounting and mechanically robust assemblies.
• Qualification & Compliance — AEC-Q200 rated and RoHS compliant, aligning the part to reliability and regulatory requirements for specialized electronics markets.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — Bulk filtering and decoupling in power modules and control units where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Engine and ECU electronics — Local energy storage and ripple suppression in engine control and vehicle electronics designed to operate at elevated temperatures.
• Battery and power management — Smoothing and transient support in battery-related circuits and power-supply rails that demand high ripple capability.
• Industrial controls — Decoupling and stabilization in motor drives, sensors, and industrial controllers exposed to wide temperature ranges and sustained thermal stress.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature capability: Rated for operation up to +150 °C with 2000-hour endurance at that temperature, reducing the need for oversized thermal margins.
• Strong ripple handling: Combined low- and high-frequency ripple ratings (536 mA at 120 Hz, 800 mA at 100 kHz) support demanding power-filtering tasks across frequency ranges.
• Compact high capacitance: 1000 µF available in a φ16 × 25 mm can delivers substantial energy density for space-constrained through-hole designs.
• Predictable electrical loss: Specified tan δ (0.16 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and leakage current (480 µA) enable accurate thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
• Through-hole form factor: Radial lead with 7.5 mm spacing (±0.5 mm) simplifies mounting and mechanical retention in PCB assemblies.
• Qualified and compliant: AEC-Q200 rating and RoHS compliance provide a documented baseline for reliability and regulatory needs.
