Overview of UCD1C152MNQ1MS – Chip Type Low Impedance 1500 µF, 16 V Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UCD1C152MNQ1MS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for surface-mount assembly. It provides 1500 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating with extended temperature capability from −55°C to 105°C and a rated endurance of 5000 hours at 105°C.
Engineered for high-density PC boards and automated placement, this SMD capacitor combines high ripple handling and low dissipation factor for demanding power applications in automotive and industrial environments where AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1500 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Low Impedance & Loss — Low impedance construction with a tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting efficient AC performance.
- High Ripple Current Capability — Handles 550 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.1 A at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling robust ripple and smoothing performance.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 240 µA at rated conditions for predictable standby behavior.
- Temperature & Endurance — Operating range from −55°C to 105°C with a lifetime rating of 5000 hours at 105°C.
- Surface-Mount, Compact Package — Chip-type SMD in a φ12.5 × 13.5 mm can (size: L 13.5 mm × D 12.5 mm; seated height 1.35 cm) suitable for high-density board layouts.
- Pick-and-Place Ready Packaging — Supplied in embossed carrier taping for compatibility with automated mounting equipment.
- Quality & Compliance — AEC-Q200 rated and RoHS compliant, aligning with automotive and regulated-environment requirements.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics — Low impedance and high ripple-current capability make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and stabilization in automotive power subsystems where AEC-Q200 qualification and a wide temperature range are required.
- Control and ECU modules — 1500 µF capacity and 16 V rating provide bulk energy storage and decoupling for control electronics operating across −55°C to 105°C.
- High-density SMD assemblies — Chip-type construction and embossed carrier taping facilitate automated placement on compact PCBs in space-constrained designs.
Unique Advantages
- High energy density in an SMD form factor: 1500 µF in a φ12.5 × 13.5 mm can minimizes board area for bulk capacitance requirements.
- Robust ripple handling: Dual-frequency ripple ratings (550 mA at 120 Hz, 1.1 A at 10 kHz) support both low- and high-frequency smoothing needs.
- Designed for harsh environments: −55°C to 105°C operating range and 5000-hour endurance at 105°C address long-term reliability under elevated temperatures.
- Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating and RoHS compliance back suitability for regulated automotive electronics and other quality-sensitive applications.
- Manufacturing-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping enables efficient automated placement and throughput for high-volume production.
