UCY2G560MHD6

The UCY2G560MHD6 is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UCY series. It is a radial-lead, polarized electrolytic designed for applications that require high ripple current handling and extended operating life.

Typical use cases include power supply and ballast applications and automotive electrical systems, where its 400 V rating, elevated temperature endurance, and compact can package deliver reliable energy storage and smoothing performance.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Tolerance — 56 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• High Voltage Rating — Rated voltage 400 V, suitable for higher-voltage power circuits.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 585 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.17 A (100 kHz), enabling use in demanding ripple environments.
• Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Rated life of 12000 hours at 105°C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current (endurance conditions per datasheet).
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified for operation from −40°C to +105°C.
• Low-Frequency Loss (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.24 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for the 400 V unit.
• Leakage Current — Product-level leakage current specified as 996 µA.
• Package and Leads — Radial can package, size φ16 × 25 mm, lead spacing 7.5 mm (lead spacing tolerance ±0.5 mm); available in bulk/bag packing.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability — AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance indicate suitability for automotive and regulated applications.
• Production Status — Mass production availability.

Typical Applications

• Power Supplies — Energy storage and smoothing in DC power supply circuits, leveraging the 400 V rating and high ripple current capability.
• Ballast Circuits — Designed for ballast applications where sustained ripple handling and long life at elevated temperature are required.
• Automotive Electronic Modules — Suited for automotive power electronics and modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and −40°C to +105°C operation are required.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple current up to 1.17 A at 100 kHz supports high-frequency and high-current environments.
• Extended high-temperature life: 12000 hours at 105°C provides longer service life under continuous elevated-temperature stress.
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides traceable reliability for automotive and similarly demanding applications.
• Compact radial package: φ16 × 25 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing deliver a small footprint for space-constrained designs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction meets common environmental requirements.
• Measured loss and leakage specs: tan δ = 0.24 (120 Hz, 20°C) and specified leakage current support predictable electrical behavior in designs.
