UCY2E560MHD

The UCY2E560MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high ripple current and long-life applications. It delivers 56 µF nominal capacitance at a 250 V rating in a compact φ12.5 × 20 mm can, making it suitable for through-hole power circuits.

Engineered for demanding environments, this AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS-compliant part supports automotive and power-supply uses with a wide operating temperature range and a rated endurance of 10,000 hours at 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 250 V and tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• High ripple current capability — Low-frequency ripple current 515 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 1.03 A at 100 kHz for robust filtering and smoothing under dynamic loads.
• Long-life endurance — Rated for 10,000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, supporting sustained performance in elevated-temperature applications.
• Thermal and electrical stability — Specified tan δ of 0.2 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and an operating temperature range of −40°C to +105°C.
• Compact radial package — φ12.5 × 20 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied in bulk or bag packing for through-hole assembly.
• Low leakage — Leakage current specified at 660 µA, suitable for power applications requiring predictable quiescent behavior.
• Qualification & compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for regulated production environments and automotive-grade designs.

Typical Applications

• Power supplies — Bulk and smoothing capacitor for DC power supplies where high ripple handling and long life are required.
• Ballast circuits — Suitable for ballast and driver circuits that demand stable capacitance and elevated temperature endurance.
• Automotive power electronics — Designed to meet automotive-grade requirements (AEC-Q200) for in-vehicle power modules and control electronics operating between −40°C and +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Measured high ripple capacity: Specified ripple currents of 515 mA (120 Hz) and 1.03 A (100 kHz) reduce thermal stress and extend system life in high‑duty applications.
• Proven long-term reliability: 10,000-hour endurance at 105°C under rated conditions supports designs that require long service life at elevated temperatures.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides assurance for designs targeting automotive electrical systems and related quality requirements.
• Compact footprint for through-hole designs: φ12.5 × 20 mm can and 5.0 mm lead spacing save board space while retaining easy manual or wave-solder assembly.
• Predictable leakage and dissipation: Leakage current of 660 µA and tan δ of 0.2 (20°C, 120 Hz) help maintain stable performance in precision power circuits.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports deployment in regulated manufacturing environments.
