Overview of UCL1E220MCL1GS – Aluminum Electrolytic SMD Capacitor, 22 µF / 25 V
The UCL1E220MCL1GS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a compact surface-mount can. It delivers 22 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating with characteristics targeted for robust power decoupling and filtering in demanding electronic environments.
Engineered for broad temperature operation and long-term endurance, this part supports automotive-grade applications and other systems that require stable capacitance, low loss, and reliable ripple-handling over a wide operating range.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 22 µF capacitance with ±20% tolerance and 25 V rated voltage; low loss factor (tanδ) of 0.14 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for stable performance.
- Low Impedance — Specified impedance around 360 mΩ to minimize voltage drop and improve transient response in power rails.
- Ripple Handling — Low-frequency ripple current 120 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 240 mA at 10 kHz for effective smoothing in switching supplies.
- Leakage and Endurance — Low leakage current (5.5 µA) and rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C for long-term reliability.
- Temperature Range — Wide operating range from −55°C to +105°C to support harsh thermal environments.
- Package & Mounting — Surface-mount radial can (chip type) in a compact φ5 × 5.8 mm form (L: 5.8 mm × D: 5.0 mm) with embossed carrier taping for automated placement.
- Qualification & Compliance — AEC-Q200 rated and compliant with RoHS directive as specified in the product datasheet.
Typical Applications
- Automotive electronics — Suitable for electronic control modules and power subsystems where AEC-Q200 qualification and −55°C to +105°C operation are required.
- Power supply filtering — Low impedance and specified ripple currents make this capacitor well-suited for smoothing and decoupling in DC–DC converters and voltage regulators.
- Board-level energy storage — Compact SMD can provides local energy buffering for switching nodes and transient suppression on densely populated PCBs.
Unique Advantages
- Automotive-capable qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in designs requiring automotive-grade components.
- Compact, automated-assembly friendly: Small φ5 × 5.8 mm can with embossed carrier taping simplifies pick-and-place and high-density PCB layouts.
- High-temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C gives confidence in long-term performance under elevated operating temperatures.
- Effective ripple management: Combined low impedance (360 mΩ) and specified ripple currents (120 mA @120 Hz, 240 mA @10 kHz) reduce ripple voltage in power rails.
- Low leakage and low dissipation: Leakage current of 5.5 µA and tanδ of 0.14 at 25 V support low-loss operation in precision and power-sensitive circuits.
