UCP2W560MHD

The UCP2W560MHD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UCP series. It is a radial-lead, polarized capacitor rated at 56 µF and 450 V, designed for general-purpose applications that require high-voltage capability in a compact can-style package.

Key value propositions include long-life endurance (10,000 hours at 105 °C), a wide operating temperature range (-40 °C to 105 °C), and specification-driven electrical performance for ripple handling and leakage control.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 450 V and a capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20%.
• High Reliability / Long Life — Rated endurance of 10,000 hours at 105 °C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, with defined post-test limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage current.
• Thermal Range — Operating temperature range from -40 °C to 105 °C to support elevated-temperature environments specified in the datasheet.
• Ripple & Loss Characteristics — Low-frequency ripple current at 120 Hz of 490 mA and high-frequency ripple current at 10 kHz of 735 mA; tan δ (DF) = 0.24 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1108 µA (measured after 1 minute application of rated voltage at 20 °C as per datasheet conditions).
• Mechanical Package — Miniature radial can: φ12.5 × 35.5 mm, lead spacing 5.0 mm (tolerance ±0.5 mm); available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Mounting & Polarity — Polarized component for radial-lead through-hole mounting (can-style case).

Typical Applications

• General Purpose — Intended for general-purpose circuits that require a compact 56 µF, 450 V polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor.
• High-Temperature Designs — Suited to applications requiring specified performance after prolonged operation at elevated temperatures, backed by a 10,000-hour endurance rating at 105 °C.
• Through-Hole Assemblies — Used where a radial-lead, can-style capacitor with 5 mm lead spacing and compact footprint (φ12.5 × 35.5 mm) is required.

Unique Advantages

• Long Endurance Rating — 10,000 hours at 105 °C provides predictable long-term behavior for thermal-stressed designs.
• High Voltage Capability — 450 V rating supports higher-voltage general-purpose applications within the product’s specification set.
• Balanced Ripple Performance — Defined ripple current values at both low and high frequencies (490 mA at 120 Hz; 735 mA at 10 kHz) enable predictable ripple handling across frequency ranges.
• Compact Miniature Footprint — φ12.5 × 35.5 mm can size and 5 mm lead spacing provide a space-efficient solution for through-hole designs.
• Clear Electrical Limits — Specified tan δ (0.24 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and leakage current figures enable straightforward qualification and selection for conservative designs.
• Production Availability — Product status listed as Mass Production for consistent sourcing.
