Overview of UCY2H560MHD – 56 µF, 500 V Radial Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UCY2H560MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high-voltage power applications. It delivers 56 µF capacitance at a 500 V rating in a compact φ18 × 35.5 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing.
Engineered for demanding power-supply and ballast circuits, this polarized capacitor offers high ripple-current capability and long operational life up to 10,000 hours at 105°C, addressing reliability and thermal endurance requirements in industrial and automotive designs.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a 500 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
- High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current 480 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 960 mA (100 kHz) to support smoothing and filtering under dynamic loads.
- Long Life & Endurance — Rated for 10,000 hours at 105°C under rated DC bias plus ripple current for extended service life in high-temperature environments.
- Electrical Losses — tan δ (DF) specified at 0.24 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, 500 V), enabling predictable dissipation characteristics.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1220 µA (after 1 minute at rated voltage, 20°C) for predictable standby behavior.
- Package & Mounting — Radial lead, polarized aluminum can (φ18 × 35.5 mm) with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); available in bulk or bag packing.
- Temperature Range & Compliance — Operational from −40°C to +105°C; RoHS compliant and AEC-Q200 qualified.
Typical Applications
- Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and output filtering in high-voltage DC power supplies where 500 V capability and high ripple handling are required.
- Ballast Circuits — Energy storage and ripple suppression for ballast and lamp-driving applications.
- Automotive Power Electronics — Filtering and energy buffering in automotive systems that require AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance.
Unique Advantages
- High-Voltage Capacity: 500 V rating supports designs that require elevated DC bus voltages without additional series components.
- High Ripple Tolerance: Rated ripple currents at low and high frequencies reduce thermal stress and improve stability under varying ripple conditions.
- Long-Term Reliability: 10,000-hour life at 105°C provides predictable longevity in thermally demanding environments.
- Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC-Q200 status enables use in qualification-aware automotive and transportation designs.
- Compact Radial Form Factor: φ18 × 35.5 mm can with standard 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies layout for through-hole power modules and replacement designs.
- Regulatory Compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental and regulatory requirements.
