UCD1A221MCL1GS

The UCD1A221MCL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for surface-mount assembly and high-density PCB layouts. It delivers 220 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating in a compact φ6.3 × 7.7 mm can designed for automated, tape-fed mounting.

Built for demanding temperature and endurance conditions, this low-impedance SMD capacitor is suited to automotive and industrial environments where AEC-Q200 qualification, high-temperature operation, and reliable ripple handling are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF rated capacitance with a 10 V rated voltage and capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20%.
• Low Impedance Performance — Specified tanδ (DF) of 0.19 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, indicating low-loss behavior at the rated conditions.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Low-frequency ripple current 145 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 290 mA at 10 kHz, specified for application planning across frequency ranges.
• Leakage Current — Rated leakage current of 22 µA for predictable standby and bias behavior.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range -55°C to +105°C with a lifetime (endurance) of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• Package & Mounting — Chip-type, surface-mount radial can (φ6.3 × 7.7L) with recommended land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm; supplied in embossed carrier taping for automatic pick-and-place.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification — AEC-Q200 rated and specified for automotive applications.
• Compliance & Production — RoHS compliant and listed as mass production status.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification makes this capacitor suitable for use in vehicle electronic modules requiring SMD electrolytic capacitors rated to +105°C.
• High-density PCB assemblies — Chip-type surface-mount format designed for reliable placement on high-density printed circuit boards.
• Automated manufacturing — Supplied on embossed carrier tape and compatible with automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape.

Unique Advantages
