UCL1C100MCL1GS

The UCL1C100MCL1GS is a chip‑type, low‑impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a surface‑mount radial can package. It delivers 10 µF at 16 V in a compact φ4 × 5.8 mm footprint and is designed for automated assembly using embossed carrier taping.

Engineered for demanding temperature and endurance requirements, this part supports operation from −55 °C to +105 °C, carries AEC‑Q200 qualification, and is targeted at automotive and other robust electronics applications that require low impedance, controlled leakage, and reliable long‑term performance.

Key Features

• Core Type – Chip, Low Impedance Chip‑type construction optimized for low impedance; rated impedance 850 mΩ.
• Electrical Ratings 10 µF capacitance at 16 V with ±20% tolerance and tan δ (DF) = 0.16 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz).
• Ripple Performance Specified ripple capability of 80 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 160 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency).
• Leakage and Reliability Low leakage current specified at 3 µA and endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C.
• Temperature and Environmental Operating temperature range −55 °C to +105 °C; RoHS compliant.
• Package and Assembly Compact φ4 × 5.8 mm SMD radial can with surface‑mount land size 4.3 × 4.3 mm; supplied in embossed carrier taping compatible with automated pick‑and‑place.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified Meets AEC‑Q200 qualification for applications requiring automotive‑grade component reliability.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suitable for automotive modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification, high temperature endurance, and low leakage are required.
• Power supply decoupling — Compact 10 µF, 16 V rating with low impedance and measurable ripple current capacity for local power smoothing.
• High‑temperature assemblies — Rated for continuous operation up to +105 °C with 2000 h endurance at that temperature.
• Automated PCB assembly — Embossed carrier taping and SMD can package enable efficient placement in production lines.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive‑grade reliability: AEC‑Q200 qualification and a 2000‑hour endurance rating at 105 °C deliver predictable performance in harsh environments.
• Low impedance performance: 850 mΩ impedance combined with a low tan δ (0.16 at 16 V, 20 °C, 120 Hz) supports stable decoupling and filtering.
• Compact SMD radial can: φ4 × 5.8 mm size and defined PCB land pattern (4.3 × 4.3 mm) minimize board area while easing layout integration.
• Measured ripple capability: Defined low‑ and high‑frequency ripple ratings (80 mA @ 120 Hz, 160 mA @ 10 kHz) allow confident use in both mains‑frequency and higher‑frequency power circuits.
• Low leakage current: Specified leakage of 3 µA supports efficient energy use and stable bias conditions in power circuits.
• Manufacturing ready: Embossed carrier taping and compatibility with automatic mounting machines streamline high‑volume assembly.
