UCK1V242MNS1MS

The UCK1V242MNS1MS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UCK series. It is a surface-mount, tape-fed component designed for automated assembly and targeted at automotive and other high-reliability electronic applications.

Key characteristics include a rated capacitance of 2.4 mF at 35 V, an extended operating temperature range to +105°C, AEC-Q200 qualification, and RoHS compliance—offering designers a compact SMD solution with verified high-temperature endurance.

Key Features

• Electrical characteristics — Rated capacitance 2.4 mF (±20% tolerance) with a rated voltage of 35 V.
• Low impedance chip type — Chip-type construction specified as low impedance to support applications with elevated ripple current needs.
• Ripple current capability — Specified ripple currents of 1.03 A at 120 Hz and 2.06 A at 100 kHz, suitable for demanding AC conditions.
• Temperature and endurance — Operating temperature range −55°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 5000 hours at 105°C.
• AEC and environmental compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863).
• Package and mounting — Surface-mount, radial can (SMD) construction compatible with carrier-tape feeding for automatic mounting machines; package footprint L: 1.65 × D: 1.8 cm.
• Leakage and loss characteristics — Leakage current specified as not more than 0.01 CV or 3 μA (whichever is greater) after 2 minutes at 20°C; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) limits specified in the series data (e.g., 0.12 max. at 35 V, 0.14 max. at 25 V, with allowances for larger capacitances).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Designed for use in automotive electronic modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Surface-mount production — Suited to automated, tape-fed assembly processes for high-volume SMD manufacturing.
• High-temperature electronics — Applicable to electronic designs that must operate reliably up to +105°C with extended endurance.

Unique Advantages

• AEC-Q200 qualification: Provides a verified component option for designs requiring automotive-grade component qualification.
• High-temperature endurance: Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C, supporting long-term reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
• Low-impedance chip construction: Specified as chip type, low impedance, helping meet higher ripple current demands without changing form factor.
• Automated assembly readiness: Carrier-tape compatibility and SMD radial-can package reduce handling steps for automated production lines.
• Clear electrical limits: Documented leakage current and tan δ specifications provide predictable behavior for engineers tuning performance and reliability.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports environmental and regulatory requirements for many industrial and automotive programs.
