UCM2A241MNS1MS

The UCM2A241MNS1MS is a surface-mount, chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UCM series. It delivers 240 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating in a compact radial can SMD package designed for automated assembly.

Engineered for applications that require low impedance and reliable long-term performance, this part is qualified to AEC-Q200 and rated for operation from −55 °C to 105 °C with 5,000 hours endurance at 105 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 240 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 100 V and tolerance ±20% (120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Low Impedance Design — Chip-type, low-impedance construction with specified high-frequency ripple capability to support power-supply decoupling and smoothing.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Low-frequency ripple current 750 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 1.5 A at 10 kHz, enabling effective ripple handling across frequency ranges.
• Endurance and Temperature Range — Rated for 5,000 hours at 105 °C; operating temperature range −55 °C to 105 °C for sustained high-temperature operation.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics — Specified leakage current of 240 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for design verification.
• Automated Assembly Ready — Supplied in embossed carrier taping; chip form factor and SMD can package support pick-and-place and automated mounting.
• Robustness and Compliance — Vibration resistant, RoHS compliant and AEC-Q200 qualified for demanding environments and regulated designs.
• Compact Footprint — Package size φ16 × 16.5 mm (L: 1.65 × D: 1.6 cm) with recommended land size L: 1.63 × W: 1.63 cm for PCB layout.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suitable for automotive modules and power electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Power Supply Filtering — Low impedance and rated ripple currents make it suitable for bulk smoothing and ripple suppression in DC–DC converters and power rails.
• High-Reliability SMD Assemblies — Vibration resistance, embossed carrier taping, and compact SMD can packaging support automated manufacturing for rugged systems.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Capability: 100 V rating supports higher-voltage rails without series stacks or multiple components.
• Substantial Stored Energy: 240 µF capacitance provides significant charge storage for transient suppression and bulk decoupling.
• Wide Ripple Bandwidth: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz enable effective performance across both low- and high-frequency domains.
• Long-Term Thermal Endurance: 5,000 hours at 105 °C supports designs with sustained elevated operating temperatures.
• Automated Assembly Compatible: Embossed carrier taping and SMD chip form factor streamline production with pick-and-place equipment.
• Qualification and Compliance: AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance provide traceable suitability for regulated and high-reliability applications.
