UCYW6150MPD

The UCYW6150MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UCY series, designed for compact, high-voltage power applications. As a miniature, high-ripple-current, long-life capacitor, it targets power supply and ballast use cases and automotive electronic systems where sustained performance, elevated voltage rating and long endurance are required.

Key Features

• Electrical characteristics — 15 µF capacitance at a 420 V rated voltage with capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20%.
• Loss and leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) max 0.24 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; specified leakage current 352 µA.
• Ripple current capability — Low-frequency ripple current 185 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 370 mA at 100 kHz (frequency coefficients apply per datasheet).
• Reliability & life — Rated for 12,000 hours at 105°C under specified endurance conditions.
• Temperature range — Operates from -40°C to +105°C.
• Mechanical & mounting — Radial lead can (φ10 × 25 mm), lead spacing 5.0 mm (tolerance ±0.5 mm); available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Standards & compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant; product is in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Power supplies — Filtering and energy storage in high-voltage DC power supplies where a 420 V rated capacitor and high ripple tolerance are required.
• Ballasts — Suitable for ballast circuits that demand compact, high-voltage capacitors with long endurance at elevated temperatures.
• Automotive electronics — Applicable to automotive electronic modules that require AEC-Q200-qualified capacitors with wide temperature range and extended life.
• Industrial power control — Use in industrial converters and control equipment needing durable, high-voltage radial electrolytics.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage rating — 420 V rating for designs that require elevated DC voltages without increasing capacitor count.
• High ripple-handling — Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies (185 mA @120 Hz, 370 mA @100 kHz) to support a variety of switching and line-frequency loads.
• Long operational life — 12,000-hour endurance at 105°C for long-term stability in thermally demanding installations.
• AEC-Q200 qualification — Provided qualification suitable for automotive-grade system design and development requirements.
• Compact radial form-factor — φ10 × 25 mm can and 5.0 mm lead spacing in a radial-lead package for straightforward through-hole mounting and mechanical robustness.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliant for environmental conformity in regulated markets.
