UCW1V100MCL1GS

The UCW1V100MCL1GS is a chip‑type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UCW series designed for surface‑mount assembly. It delivers 10 µF at a 35 V rating in a compact 5 × 7 mm package with low impedance performance up to +105 °C.

Targeted for applications that demand long operational life and robust thermal performance, this part is AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for automotive and other demanding electronic systems that require reliable power filtering and decoupling.

Key Features

• Electrical Characteristics — 10 µF capacitance with a 35 V rated voltage and polarization suitable for DC power applications. Capacitance tolerance is ±20% (120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Low Impedance — Specified low impedance behavior up to +105 °C and an impedance value of 2.2 Ω, supporting effective smoothing and decoupling at elevated temperatures.
• High Temperature Endurance — Rated for 7000 hours at +105 °C, with endurance guarantees for capacitance change, tan δ and leakage current after the specified life test.
• Ripple Handling — Defined ripple current capability: 47.5 mA at 120 Hz and 95 mA at 10 kHz, enabling predictable AC stress performance in power circuits.
• Surface Mount Package — Chip type (radial, can - SMD) in a compact L:7 × D:5 mm body with a recommended land size of 5.3 × 5.3 mm; designed for automatic mounting machine feeds via carrier tape.
• Qualification & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), indicating suitability for regulated environments and automotive development flows.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power rails — Smoothing and decoupling in in‑vehicle electronics where AEC‑Q200 qualification and +105 °C performance are required.
• Control and sensor modules — Local energy storage and noise suppression for electronic control units and sensor interfaces operating under elevated temperatures.
• Surface‑mount, high‑volume assemblies — Designed for automatic pick‑and‑place with carrier tape compatibility to streamline PCB assembly processes.

Unique Advantages

• Long, quantifiable life: 7000 hours at +105 °C provides a measurable endurance baseline for long‑term thermal reliability planning.
• Designed for automotive use: AEC‑Q200 qualification supports integration into automotive BOMs and development cycles.
• Compact SMD footprint: 5 × 7 mm package and defined land pattern support space‑constrained PCB designs without sacrificing rated voltage or capacitance.
• Predictable ripple performance: Published ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz enable accurate thermal and lifetime calculations under AC loading.
• Assembly ready: Feedable by carrier tape for automated mounting, reducing manual handling and improving manufacturing throughput.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity simplifies end‑product compliance documentation and environmental requirements.
