UCX1E101MCL1GS

The UCX1E101MCL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high-temperature applications. It combines a compact surface-mount can package with performance specifications tailored for demanding thermal environments.

Targeted at automotive and other high-temperature electronics, the part offers defined ESR and ripple-current characteristics, AEC-Q200 qualification, and RoHS compliance for reliable operation up to 135°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF rated capacitance at 25 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• High Temperature Range — Operating temperature range from −40°C to +135°C with endurance specified for 2000 hours at 135°C.
• ESR Specified — Equivalent series resistance 200 mΩ measured at 100 kHz; ESR is specified including after the −40°C condition per product documentation.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Low-frequency ripple current 135 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 270 mA at 10 kHz.
• Surface-Mount Can Package — Chip-type radial can, suitable for SMD assemblies and designed for automatic mounting with carrier tape.
• Reliability & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, with endurance, soldering-heat and shelf-life characteristics defined in the product specification.
• Compact Footprint — Size dimension L: 1 × D: 0.8 cm with a recommended PCB land size of 8.3 × 8.3 mm to support compact board layouts.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — For vehicle electronics that require components with AEC-Q200 qualification and operation at elevated temperatures up to +135°C.
• High-temperature electronic modules — Suited to electronic assemblies and modules that must maintain capacitance and controlled ESR across wide temperature swings.
• Surface-mount power decoupling — Compact SMD can for local decoupling and filtering in space-constrained printed circuit board designs, compatible with carrier-tape automated placement.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for elevated temperatures: Rated to +135°C with specified 2000-hour endurance at that temperature to support long-term operation in hot environments.
• Defined ESR performance: ESR specified at 200 mΩ (100 kHz) and verified including low-temperature test conditions to help stabilize high-frequency behavior in the end system.
• Measured ripple capability: Provided ripple-current ratings at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to evaluate performance across common power and switching frequencies.
• Automotive-level qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides documented reliability evidence for use in regulated automotive designs.
• Automated assembly ready: Carrier-tape compatible SMD can form factor simplifies pick-and-place integration and streamlines manufacturing.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in regions and supply chains requiring restricted substances conformance.
