UCM1C102MNS1GS

The UCM1C102MNS1GS is a chip-type, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a surface-mount radial can package, designed for automated assembly with embossed carrier taping. It delivers 1000 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating with a wide operating temperature range from –55 °C to 105 °C, making it suitable for demanding electronic power applications.

Targeted for automotive and other high-reliability markets, this part combines high ripple-current capability, vibration resistance, and AEC‑Q200 qualification to support robust power filtering and decoupling in temperature- and vibration-exposed environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz and a rated voltage of 16 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing.
• Low Impedance (Chip Type) — Chip-type construction optimized for low ESR/impedance behavior suitable for high ripple and decoupling tasks.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 595 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 1.19 A (10 kHz) to handle dynamic load currents.
• Loss Tangent — tan δ = 0.16 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz (for 16 V), supporting predictable AC loss performance in filter circuits.
• Leakage Current — Typical leakage current specified as 160 µA, aiding in low-standby-loss designs.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability — AEC‑Q200 qualified with endurance rated to 2000 hours at 105 °C for φD ≤ 10, and vibration-resistant construction for mechanically challenging installations.
• Surface-Mount, Assembly Ready — Radial can SMD package (φ10 × 10L; size 1 × 1 cm) with embossed carrier taping for automated pick-and-place workflows.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from –55 °C to 105 °C to support a broad set of environmental conditions.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power rails — Bulk smoothing and transient suppression on in-vehicle DC power rails where AEC‑Q200 qualification and elevated temperature endurance are required.
• Power-supply filtering — Output filtering and decoupling for DC–DC converters and voltage regulators that demand high ripple-current capability.
• Electronic control modules — Energy storage and supply stabilization in control units exposed to vibration and wide temperature swings.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple-current tolerance: Supports both low- and high-frequency ripple up to 1.19 A at 10 kHz, reducing voltage ripple under dynamic loads.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating and 2000-hour endurance at 105 °C (for this size) provide traceable reliability for vehicle electronics.
• Vibration resistance: Mechanical design resistant to vibration helps maintain performance in harsh, mobile environments.
• Surface-mount compatibility: Embossed carrier taping and SMD radial-can format enable streamlined automated assembly and high-volume manufacturing.
• Wide operating temperature: –55 °C to 105 °C operation supports deployment across a broad set of thermal environments.
