UCY2W6R8MPD

The UCY2W6R8MPD is a miniature radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UCY series, designed for high‑reliability power applications. It combines a 6.8 µF capacitance with a 450 V rated voltage in a compact φ10 × 16 mm can, offering a space‑efficient option for power supply and ballast circuits.

Engineered for extended operation at elevated temperatures, this polarized capacitor features a 10,000‑hour endurance at 105°C and is AEC‑Q200 qualified with RoHS compliance, making it suitable for demanding industrial and automotive power electronics environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 6.8 µF nominal capacitance with a 450 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance to support high‑voltage filtering and energy storage.
• High‑temperature Endurance — Rated for 10,000 hours at +105°C under specified endurance conditions, supporting long service life in hot operating environments.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current 105 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 210 mA (100 kHz) to handle varied ripple profiles in power supplies.
• Low Loss / Dissipation — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) max. 0.24 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz (450 V rating), helping to limit dissipation in AC conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 222.4 µA for predictable standby and operating leakage behavior.
• Compact Radial‑Lead Package — φ10 × 16 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through‑hole assembly; packaging options include bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for use in regulated and automotive applications.

Typical Applications

• Power Supplies — Bulk and decoupling capacitance in high‑voltage power supply stages where compact size and high voltage are required.
• Ballasts — Filtering and energy storage in ballast circuits, leveraging the UCY series’ suitability for ballast applications.
• Automotive Power Electronics — High‑voltage filtering and smoothing in automotive systems, backed by AEC‑Q200 qualification for vehicle environments.

Unique Advantages

• High‑Voltage Capability: 450 V rating enables use in higher DC bus and power conversion circuits without upsizing the capacitor footprint.
• Extended High‑Temperature Life: 10,000‑hour endurance at 105°C provides predictable long‑term performance under sustained thermal stress.
• Frequency‑Versatile Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 100 kHz support both line‑frequency and high‑frequency power stages.
• Compact Through‑Hole Footprint: φ10 × 16 mm can with standard 5 mm lead spacing minimizes board area while preserving through‑hole robustness.
• Industry Qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance facilitate integration into regulated automotive and industrial designs.
