Overview of UCH1J680MCL1GS – Chip Type, High Reliability Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UCH1J680MCL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for high-reliability applications. It combines a compact surface-mount can package with specifications tuned for wide temperature operation and controlled ESR behavior at low temperatures.
Designed for automated production and long-term operation, this part targets systems that require AEC-Q200 qualification, RoHS compliance, and predictable performance from −40°C to 125°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 63 V, ±20% tolerance.
- Chip Package & Mounting — Surface-mount, radial can (SMD) package suitable for automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape; footprint land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm.
- Temperature Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to 125°C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 125°C.
- Low‑Temperature ESR Control — Low temperature ESR specification with additional ESR characterization after −40°C testing; ESR = 400 mOhm at 100 kHz for this part.
- Ripple Current Capability — Specified ripple current of 125 mA at 120 Hz and 250 mA at 10 kHz; frequency coefficient reaches 1.00 at 10 kHz or higher.
- Reliability & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
- Leakage & Loss Characteristics — Leakage current specified as not more than 0.01CV (µA) after 2 minutes at 20°C; tan δ limits defined by rated voltage (e.g., 0.14 max at 63 V, 120 Hz, 20°C).
Typical Applications
- Automotive electronics — Suitable for automotive systems that require AEC-Q200 qualified passives and stable operation across −40°C to 125°C.
- High-volume surface-mount assembly — Carrier-tape compatible design for efficient pick-and-place processing in automated production lines.
- Equipment operating across wide temperature ranges — Components and subsystems that demand predictable ESR and endurance at elevated temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- Qualification for demanding markets: AEC-Q200 qualification provides documented reliability standards for designs targeting regulated or high-reliability segments.
- Measured low-temperature behavior: Additional ESR specification after −40°C testing gives designers quantified low-temperature performance for margin planning.
- Compact SMD can package: Chip-type radial can in an SMD form factor enables compact layouts while remaining compatible with automated assembly.
- High-temperature endurance: 2000-hour rating at 125°C supports long-term operation in elevated-temperature environments.
- Clear ripple and loss data: Specified ripple currents and tan δ values allow designers to size capacitors against real operating conditions and frequency ranges.
