UEP0J682MHD

The UEP0J682MHD from Nichicon is a bi-polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UEP series, designed for general-purpose electronic applications requiring stable performance across a wide temperature range. It offers 6.8 mF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating in a radial‑lead, can-style package suited for through-hole mounting.

Engineered for high-temperature endurance and measurable ripple handling, this part supports operation from −55 °C to +105 °C and is RoHS compliant, making it appropriate for designs that demand longevity and regulatory compliance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 6.8 mF capacitance rated at 6.3 V with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20 °C), providing bulk energy storage in a compact through-hole form.
• Bi‑Polar Polarization — Bi-polar construction allows use where polarity may reverse, expanding applicability in AC-coupling and bipolar circuit requirements.
• Wide Temperature Range — Specified operating range from −55 °C to +105 °C for reliable performance in thermally demanding environments.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 105 °C with polarity inversion every 250 hours, with capacitance change and dissipation factor limits specified for endurance verification.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 1.83 A at 120 Hz and 2.104 A at 10 kHz; frequency coefficients for the 1000–6800 μF class apply (120 Hz = 1.00, 10 kHz or more = 1.15).
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can package with 7.5 mm lead spacing and overall size L: 3.55 × D: 1.8 cm, suitable for standard through-hole PCB layouts.
• Electrical Loss & Leakage — Maximum tan δ of 0.24 at 6.3 V (120 Hz, 20 °C); leakage current after 5 minutes is specified as not more than 0.03CV (μA), enabling predictable loss and leakage budgeting.
• Regulatory Status — RoHS compliant under the indicated directive, supporting restricted‑substance requirements.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose Electronics — Bulk energy storage and decoupling in through-hole designs where a bi-polarized capacitor and wide temperature range are required.
• Bipolar Signal and Coupling Circuits — Use in circuits that may experience polarity reversal, leveraging the capacitor’s bi-polarized construction and specified endurance.
• Thermally Demanding Equipment — Applications that require reliable operation from −55 °C to +105 °C and a defined 1000-hour high-temperature lifetime.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑Polar Construction: Enables use where polarity reversal can occur, reducing the need for additional circuit measures to protect polarized capacitors.
• Wide Operating Temperature: −55 °C to +105 °C rating allows deployment across a broad range of environmental conditions without derating the package style.
• Defined High‑Temperature Lifetime: 1000 hours at 105 °C with specified post-test limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage current provides quantifiable reliability data for thermal stress planning.
• Predictable Ripple Handling: Measured ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz with applicable frequency coefficients let designers size capacitors for AC stress and thermal rise considerations.
• Through‑Hole Radial Package: Standard radial lead spacing and can package simplify PCB layout and assembly for traditional board designs.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports designs targeting restricted‑substance requirements.
