UEP1C332MHD

The UEP1C332MHD is an aluminum electrolytic, bi‑polarized capacitor in a radial can package designed for general‑purpose electronic applications. It delivers 3.3 mF capacitance at a 16 V rating with construction and specifications intended for wide temperature operation.

Key value for designers includes wide operating temperature capability, bi‑polar operation for AC or polarity‑reversing circuits, and proven endurance performance under extended high‑temperature stress.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 3.3 mF rated capacitance at 16 V provides bulk energy storage suitable for smoothing and decoupling in general‑purpose circuits.
• Bi‑Polarized Design — Bi‑polar construction allows operation with polarity reversal, enabling applications where the applied voltage can change polarity.
• Wide Temperature Range — Specified operating range of −55 °C to +105 °C supports circuits exposed to broad environmental conditions.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Lifetime rating of 1000 hours at 105 °C; endurance testing on the series applies rated voltage for 1000 hours at 105 °C with polarity inverted every 250 hours.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 1.4 A at 120 Hz and 1.61 A at 10 kHz to support AC ripple handling and filtered power rails.
• Low‑Temperature Stability — Impedance characteristics documented for low temperatures (e.g., Z(−25 °C)/Z(+20 °C) and Z(−40 °C)/Z(+20 °C) ratios), useful for designs operating below ambient.
• Packaging & Mounting — Radial lead, can‑style package with 7.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 3.55 × D: 1.8 cm) for through‑hole assembly.
• Tolerance & Loss — Capacitance tolerance ±20% (at 120 Hz, 20 °C); tangent of loss angle (tan δ) for 16 V rated parts is specified in the series data.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Electronics — Bulk filtering and decoupling in power supplies and analog front‑ends where bipolar operation and wide temperature range are required.
• AC‑Coupled Circuits — Circuits that experience polarity reversals or bipolar signals benefit from the bi‑polarized construction.
• Industrial Controls — Power smoothing and transient handling in control modules exposed to extended temperature ranges.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑polar operation: Eliminates the need for special polarity handling in circuits with reversing voltages.
• Wide operating temperature span: −55 °C to +105 °C rating supports designs subject to extreme or varying ambient conditions.
• Documented endurance: 1000 hours at 105 °C with polarity inversion intervals provides a measurable reliability baseline for thermal stress.
• Measurable ripple capability: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to match the part to expected ripple environments.
• Through‑hole, radial form factor: Familiar radial can package and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify replacement and layout in existing through‑hole assemblies.
• Compliance‑ready: RoHS compliance supports environmentally regulated product lines.
