UCX1V152MNQ6MS

The UCX1V152MNQ6MS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high-reliability, high-temperature applications. As a surface-mount, carrier-tape compatible part from Nichicon’s UCX series, it combines a compact SMD can package with specifications tuned for elevated operating temperatures and low-temperature ESR stability.

Targeted use cases include automotive electronics and other embedded systems that require sustained operation at temperatures up to +135°C. Key value propositions are its high operating-temperature rating, characterized ESR at low temperature, and long endurance under rated conditions.

Key Features

• Electrical Capacity — 1.5 mF rated capacitance at 35 V with polarization; capacitance tolerance is −20% to +20%.
• Low‑temperature ESR Spec — ESR specified as 40 mΩ at 100 kHz, with added ESR specification after the −40°C test to ensure performance across the full temperature range.
• Ripple Current Handling — Rated ripple current of 950 mA at 120 Hz and 1.9 A at 10 kHz, suitable for power filtering and transient energy smoothing in high‑duty applications.
• High Temperature Endurance — Designed for continuous use from −40°C to +135°C with a specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 135°C.
• Package & Mounting — Chip-type radial can SMD package for surface mounting; compatible with automatic mounting machines fed by carrier tape. Surface-mount land size: 1.63 × 1.63 cm.
• Reliability & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, reflecting qualification for high-reliability environments and regulatory compliance.
• Thermal & Solder Robustness — Datasheet endurance and soldering-heat characteristics are specified for recovery to rated characteristics after high-temperature exposure.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Engine control units, electronic control modules, and sensor interfaces where AEC‑Q200 qualification and operation to +135°C are required.
• Power Supply Filtering — Input/output decoupling and bulk energy smoothing in DC–DC converters and power regulators, leveraging 1.5 mF capacitance and low ESR.
• Harsh‑environment Embedded Systems — Electronics that must operate reliably across −40°C to +135°C and require long endurance under elevated temperature stress.
• High-frequency Ripple Management — Applications requiring high ripple current capability and verified ESR at higher frequencies (100 kHz) for stable filter performance.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for High‑Temperature Duty — Rated for continuous operation up to +135°C with a 2000‑hour endurance at that temperature, helping extend module lifetime in hot environments.
• Low‑temperature ESR Characterization — ESR specification includes results after a −40°C test, providing predictable performance across the full operating range.
• High Ripple Current Capacity — Measured ripple ratings at both low and high frequencies (950 mA at 120 Hz, 1.9 A at 10 kHz) support demanding power-conditioning roles.
• Surface‑mount, Assembly‑friendly Package — Chip-type SMD can compatible with carrier-tape feed simplifies automated placement and PCB assembly.
• Industry Qualification & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance support deployment in regulated, reliability-focused designs.
