Overview of UCD1C152MNS1MS – Chip-Type Low Impedance Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 16 V, 1500 µF
The UCD1C152MNS1MS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for surface-mount assembly on high-density printed circuit boards. It delivers 1500 µF at 16 V in a compact φ12.5 × 13.5 mm can-style SMD package, optimized for applications that require high capacitance, low loss, and automated placement.
Targeted for demanding environments, this part offers wide operating temperature (-55 °C to 105 °C), AEC-Q200 qualification, RoHS compliance, and a 5000-hour endurance rating at 105 °C. It ships in embossed carrier tape for pick-and-place production and is in mass production.
Key Features
- Core Electrical: 1500 µF capacitance at 16 V with ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage and smoothing for power rails.
- Low Loss / Frequency Performance: tanδ of 0.16 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz) for controlled dissipation; designed for both low- and high-frequency ripple environments.
- Ripple Current Handling: Rated for 550 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.1 A at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective ripple attenuation across a range of switching frequencies.
- Leakage & Polarization: Polarized aluminum electrolytic design with leakage current specified at 240 µA.
- Reliability / Endurance: 5000 hours endurance at 105 °C and AEC-Q200 qualification for applications requiring robust thermal and lifecycle performance.
- Temperature Range: Operates from -55 °C to 105 °C to accommodate harsh thermal environments.
- Package & Mounting: Chip-type SMD radial/can package (φ12.5 × 13.5 mm) with surface-mount land dimensions of 12.8 × 12.8 mm; supplied in embossed carrier tape for automated assembly.
- Compliance: RoHS compliant, suitable for regulated production environments.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power modules: Bulk smoothing and decoupling for control units and power distribution thanks to AEC-Q200 qualification and 105 °C endurance.
- DC–DC converters: Input/output filtering and energy buffering where high ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies is required.
- Embedded power rails: Bulk capacitance for board-level power stability in compact, surface-mount designs.
- Industrial electronics: Power smoothing in sensor interfaces, motor drives, and control boards operating across wide temperature ranges.
Unique Advantages
- High capacitance in a compact SMD package: 1500 µF in a φ12.5 × 13.5 mm chip-type can reduces board area for high-density designs.
- Wide temperature and long-life rating: -55 °C to 105 °C operation with 5000-hour endurance at 105 °C supports long-term reliability in thermally demanding applications.
- Dual-frequency ripple capability: Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz (550 mA and 1.1 A) ensures effective filtering across switching and line frequencies.
- Automated assembly-ready: Embossed carrier taping aligns with pick-and-place processes for efficient production throughput.
- Standards and compliance: AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance provide qualification-level confidence and regulatory conformance.
- Low-loss operation: tanδ of 0.16 at 120 Hz (20 °C) helps minimize dissipation in power applications.
