UBX2C680MHL

The UBX2C680MHL is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor by Nichicon offering 68 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating. It is designed for high-temperature, long-life duty with a wide operating range and targeted for demanding electronic environments.

Key value propositions include a high operating temperature limit up to 150°C with 2000 hours endurance at that temperature, AEC-Q200 compliance, and RoHS conformity—making it appropriate for robust automotive and heavy-duty electronic designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 68 µF nominal with ±20% tolerance (at 20°C, 120 Hz).
• Rated Voltage — 160 V rated working voltage for higher-voltage circuits.
• High-temperature endurance — Operating temperature range −40°C to +150°C with a specified endurance of 2000 hours at 150°C.
• Ripple current capability — Low-frequency ripple current 290 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 435 mA (100 kHz).
• Leakage current — Specified leakage current of 535.2 µA under rated conditions.
• Low-loss characteristic — tanδ (DF) = 0.2 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for the 160 V range.
• Package & mounting — Radial lead (polarized) in a laminated can, size φ16 × 20L, lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm).
• Reliability & compliance — AEC-Q200 listed and RoHS compliant; part is in mass production.
• Packaging options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suited for automobile electronics and heavy-duty automotive applications where high-temperature, long-life components are required.
• High-temperature electronic assemblies — Designed for systems operating up to 150°C and for use cases that demand sustained endurance at elevated temperatures.
• AEC-Q200-qualified designs — Use in designs that require components conforming to AEC-Q200 reliability expectations.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature durability — Rated to 150°C with a 2000-hour endurance rating at that temperature, reducing the need for frequent replacements in hot environments.
• Wide operating voltage — 160 V rating enables use in higher-voltage circuits while maintaining stable performance.
• Robust ripple handling — Measured ripple current specifications at both low and high frequencies help maintain smoothing performance across a range of switching conditions.
• Traceable reliability — AEC-Q200 designation and Nichicon series pedigree support deployment in reliability-focused electronics.
• Compact radial form factor — φ16 × 20L laminated can with standard 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies through-hole assembly and retrofit designs.
• Regulatory conformity — RoHS compliance for straightforward environmental adherence in product builds.
