UEP1H100MED

The UEP1H100MED from Nichicon is a bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UEP series designed for general‑purpose applications. It delivers 10 µF nominal capacitance at a 50 V rating in a compact radial can with 2.5 mm lead spacing.

Built for wide temperature operation (−55 °C to +105 °C) and defined endurance at elevated temperature, this capacitor is suitable for designs that require bi‑polar operation, RoHS compliance, and documented ripple and leakage specifications.

Key Features

• Core Type: Bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor — 10 µF nominal capacitance at 50 V.
• Wide Temperature Range: Rated for operation from −55 °C to +105 °C to support extended temperature applications.
• Endurance: Specified lifetime of 1000 hours at 105 °C with polarity inversion every 250 hours; post-test limits apply to capacitance, tan δ, and leakage current.
• Ripple Current Ratings: Rated ripple current of 37 mA at 120 Hz and 74 mA at 10 kHz for ripple handling guidance.
• Leakage Current Specification: After 5 minutes at 20 °C, leakage current not more than 0.03 C·V (µA) as defined in the series specification.
• Physical / Mounting: Radial lead, radial can package with 2.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.1 × D: 0.63 cm).
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General‑Purpose Electronics: Provides 10 µF/50 V bi‑polar capacitance for circuits that require reliable operation across a wide temperature range (−55 °C to +105 °C).
• Bipolar/AC Circuits: Bi‑polar construction supports applications where polarity independence is required.
• Through‑Hole Assemblies: Radial lead and compact can footprint with 2.5 mm lead spacing for space‑conscious through‑hole designs.

Unique Advantages

• Wide temperature capability: Broad −55 °C to +105 °C rating reduces the need for multiple capacitor variants across temperature zones.
• Polarity‑independent operation: Bi‑polar design removes polarity constraints for AC or bipolar circuit topologies.
• Documented endurance: 1000‑hour specification at 105 °C with clear post‑test acceptance criteria for capacitance, dissipation factor, and leakage current.
• Compact, radial package: Small L:1.1 × D:0.63 cm footprint and 2.5 mm lead spacing support dense through‑hole layouts.
• Measured ripple guidance: Explicit ripple current figures at 120 Hz and 10 kHz assist in thermal and ripple budgeting during design.
• RoHS compliant: Meets restricted‑substance requirements for regulatory consistency.
