UCW1C101MCL1GS

The UCW1C101MCL1GS is a chip‑type aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a compact SMD can package, rated at 100 µF and 16 V. Designed for demanding thermal and reliability requirements, it offers low impedance performance up to +105°C and a rated load life of 7000 hours at +105°C.

This part is AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, and is configured for tape‑feed automated placement, making it suitable for production environments that require durability and consistent assembly compatibility.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF rated capacitance at 16 V, with capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Impedance Performance — Specified low impedance up to +105°C; listed impedance of 1.1 Ω supports stable AC behaviour across temperature.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated for 7000 hours at +105°C; endurance characteristics include capacitance change within ±30% and leakage current within initial specified limits after the test.
• Package & Mounting — Surface mount radial can (SMD) in a compact footprint (L: 7 × D: 6.3 mm) with recommended land size of 6.6 × 6.6 mm; designed for carrier‑tape automatic mounting.
• Electrical Robustness — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction with leakage current spec (≤ 0.01 CV or 3 µA after 2 minutes at 20°C) and ripple current ratings of 70 mA (120 Hz) and 140 mA (10 kHz).
• Environmental & Quality — RoHS compliant and AEC‑Q200 qualified for applications requiring recognized component reliability standards.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — AEC‑Q200 qualification and 7000 h life at +105°C make this capacitor suitable for in‑vehicle electronic assemblies that require long‑term thermal reliability.
• Compact SMD power modules — The 100 µF/16 V rating and low impedance characteristics suit use where board space is limited and capacitance is needed in a surface‑mount can.
• High‑temperature electronics — Continuous operation up to +105°C and defined endurance at that temperature enable use in elevated ambient environments within the specified category range (−25 to +105°C).
• Automated PCB assembly — Designed for carrier‑tape feeding and automatic mounting machines to streamline high‑volume manufacturing and consistent placement.

Unique Advantages

• Long high‑temperature life: 7000 hours of rated life at +105°C provides predictable aging characteristics for thermal stress conditions.
• Qualified reliability: AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance support use in regulated and quality‑sensitive product lines.
• Low impedance to +105°C: Measured impedance of 1.1 Ω and stable low‑impedance behavior across the rated temperature range improve AC performance where stable ESR is required.
• Assembly‑friendly SMD can: Compact 7 × 6.3 mm can package with tape‑feed compatibility reduces handling steps and supports automated placement workflows.
• Defined ripple capability: Rated ripple currents of 70 mA (120 Hz) and 140 mA (10 kHz) give clear parameters for thermal and AC stress planning in design.
