UCL1C101MCL1GS

The UCL1C101MCL1GS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for surface-mount assembly. It delivers 100 µF of capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ6.3 × 5.8 mm can, supplied in embossed carrier taping for automated placement.

With a wide operating temperature range and AEC-Q200 qualification, this part is tailored for demanding electronics that require reliable decoupling and bulk energy storage—particularly in automotive systems and other rugged environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance, rated for 16 V with a tolerance of -20%~20%.
• Low Impedance Performance — Chip-type, low-impedance construction with an impedance of 260 mΩ and tanδ (DF) of 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• Ripple Current Capability — Supports 150 mA low-frequency ripple current at 120 Hz and 300 mA high-frequency ripple current at 10 kHz for effective filtering under varying load conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 16 µA, suitable for power circuits where controlled leakage is required.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operates from -55°C to +105°C with a rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability — AEC-Q200 qualified, meeting industry requirements for automotive electronic components.
• Surface-Mount Package — Radial can SMD package sized φ6.3 × 5.8 mm, surface-mount land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm, and supplied on embossed carrier tape for high-volume automated assembly.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Modules — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple filtering in automotive electronic control units and power distribution modules where AEC-Q200 qualification is required.
• On-board Power Filtering — Suited for DC–DC converter output smoothing and local decoupling on mixed-signal and power PCBs, leveraging its 100 µF capacitance and high ripple current ratings.
• Embedded and Rugged Electronics — Use in equipment that operates across a wide temperature range (−55°C to +105°C) and demands long-term stability (2000 h at 105°C).

Unique Advantages

• Compact, High-Capacity Package: 100 µF in a φ6.3 × 5.8 mm SMD can reduces PCB area while providing significant energy storage.
• High Ripple Handling: Dual-frequency ripple ratings (150 mA at 120 Hz, 300 mA at 10 kHz) enable effective suppression of both low- and high-frequency disturbances.
• Stable Performance Across Temperature: Rated for −55°C to +105°C with specified endurance, supporting reliable operation in harsh environments.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in automotive applications where component-level qualification is required.
• Assembly-Ready Packaging: Embossed carrier taping simplifies automated placement and high-volume manufacturing workflows.
