UCA2V100MPD

The UCA2V100MPD is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UCA series, specified at 10 µF and 350 V. It is a polarized, through-hole device designed for general-purpose high-voltage applications, including power supplies and ballast circuits, where a compact, high-voltage electrolytic capacitor is required.

Key engineered attributes include a compact φ10 × 20 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing, a rated temperature range of −25 °C to +105 °C, and a designed endurance of 10,000 hours at 105 °C. Note: UCA2V100MPD is listed as End Of Life.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 10 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 350 V for high-voltage smoothing and energy-storage tasks.
• Radial Lead Construction — Polarized, radial-lead (through-hole) package with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for reliable PCB mounting and manual or wave-solder assembly.
• Compact Form Factor — Body dimensions φ10 × 20 mm provide a small footprint for space-constrained layouts.
• Thermal Endurance — Rated life of 10,000 hours at +105 °C, suitable for sustained elevated-temperature operation within the specified range.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current rated at 140 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 280 mA (100 kHz), supporting power-supply decoupling across frequencies.
• Electrical Stability — Capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% and dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.20 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for predictable AC behavior.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 240 µA after one minute at 20 °C, facilitating bias-current planning in high-voltage circuits.
• RoHS Compliant & Packaging Options — RoHS-compliant construction; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to match production needs.

Typical Applications

• Power Supplies — DC-link smoothing and bulk energy storage in high-voltage power-supply stages where a compact, 350 V capacitor is needed.
• Ballast Circuits — Filtering and ripple control in ballast and lamp-driving applications as indicated by the UCA series focus.
• General-Purpose High-Voltage Circuits — Decoupling and energy storage in industrial and consumer equipment using polarized electrolytic capacitors.

Unique Advantages

• 350 V Rated Voltage: Enables use in higher-voltage sections without series stacking, simplifying design and BOM.
• Small Footprint: φ10 × 20 mm can and 5.0 mm lead spacing reduce board area while maintaining through-hole reliability.
• Long High-Temperature Life: 10,000 hours at +105 °C supports products that operate in elevated-temperature environments.
• Frequency-Spanning Ripple Capability: Specified ripple currents at both low (120 Hz) and high (100 kHz) frequencies support versatile power-conditioning roles.
• Predictable AC Characteristics: Defined tan δ and leakage current allow accurate thermal and bias-current budgeting in designs.
• RoHS Compliance and Packaging Flexibility: Environmentally compliant materials and bulk or bag packing options streamline procurement and assembly.
