UCX1C101MCS1GS

The UCX1C101MCS1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high-temperature operation up to +135°C. It delivers 100 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact surface-mount, tape-fed package suitable for automated assembly.

Engineered for demanding environments, this capacitor combines a specified low-temperature ESR behavior, defined ripple current ratings, and AEC-Q200 qualification to meet reliability and endurance requirements in temperature-stressed applications.

Key Features

• High temperature range & endurance — Rated for operation from −40°C to +135°C with a specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 135°C.
• Electrical ratings — 100 µF capacitance at 16 V with a tolerance of −20% to +20% to support stable bulk energy storage.
• Low-temperature ESR specification — ESR characterized down to −40°C; equivalent series resistance specified as 200 mΩ at 100 kHz.
• Ripple current performance — Defined ripple current: 135 mA at 135 Hz and 270 mA at 10 kHz, enabling predictable thermal and AC performance.
• Automotive-grade qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for use where industry qualification is required.
• Surface-mount, tape-fed package — Chip-type, radial can SMD designed for automatic mounting machines; compact dimensions (L: 10 mm × D: 8 mm; surface mount land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm) simplify board integration.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suited for automotive modules and electronics that require AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance.
• High-temperature assemblies — Intended for surface-mount assemblies exposed to elevated operating temperatures up to +135°C and long-term endurance demands.
• Compact SMD power modules — Compact chip package and defined ripple/ESR specifications make it appropriate for space-constrained power circuitry on automated production lines.

Unique Advantages

• High-temperature reliability: Endurance rating of 2000 hours at 135°C provides quantified performance for thermal-stressed designs.
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance help streamline use in regulated automotive applications.
• Measured low-temperature behavior: ESR specified after −40°C testing gives designers clarity on performance in cold-start and low-temperature conditions.
• Predictable AC performance: Published ripple current values at 135 Hz and 10 kHz support thermal budgeting and lifetime estimation under AC loading.
• Automated assembly ready: Chip-type SMD in carrier-tape format facilitates high-volume, automated placement and reflow processes.
