UCZ2A221MNQ1MS

The UCZ2A221MNQ1MS is a high-reliability, chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UCZ series. It delivers 220 µF at 100 V in a surface-mount radial can package designed for automated tape-and-reel assembly and operation across a wide temperature range.

Targeted at demanding environments, this capacitor provides AEC-Q200 qualification, low-temperature ESR performance verification, and endurance specified for extended high-temperature use, making it suitable for applications that require stable filtering and energy storage under thermal and electrical stress.

Key Features

• Electrical — 220 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and filtering in high-voltage circuits.
• Temperature & Endurance — Rated for operation from -40°C to +125°C with an endurance specification of 4000 hours at 125°C.
• Low-Temperature ESR — Added ESR specification after the test at -40°C; ESR measured at 120 kHz is 120 mΩ (specified at 100 kHz).
• Ripple Performance — Specified ripple capability of 800 mA at 120 Hz and 1.6 A at 10 kHz to handle both low- and higher-frequency ripple currents.
• Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and designed as a high-reliability component for applications demanding robust performance.
• Assembly & Package — Chip-type, surface-mount radial can (SMD) format, compatible with automated mounting machines fed by carrier tape.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and rated operation to +125°C make this capacitor appropriate for electronic control units and other automotive subsystems requiring high-temperature reliability.
• High-temperature electronics — Endurance rated for 4000 hours at 125°C supports use in equipment that must maintain capacitance and leakage characteristics under prolonged thermal stress.
• Automated surface-mount production — Chip-type radial can in a tape-fed format enables efficient pick-and-place assembly for volume manufacturing.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides documented suitability for designs that require automotive-level reliability.
• Wide temperature capability: -40°C to +125°C operating range combined with a 4000-hour endurance at 125°C offers predictable long-term behavior in hot environments.
• Verified low-temperature ESR: ESR specification after -40°C testing ensures performance during cold starts and low-temperature operation.
• High-voltage, high-capacitance option: 220 µF at 100 V supplies substantial bulk energy storage and smoothing for higher-voltage rails.
• Dual-frequency ripple specification: Rated ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz support filtering across a range of switching and line frequencies.
• Production-ready packaging: Designed for carrier-tape feed and surface-mount assembly to simplify integration into automated manufacturing flows.
