Overview of UEP2A4R7MED – 4.7 µF, 100 V Bi‑Polarized Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UEP2A4R7MED is a bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial can package designed for general‑purpose electronic circuits. It delivers 4.7 µF at 100 V with a wide operating temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C, making it suitable for designs that require polarity‑reversible operation and extended temperature tolerance.
Engineered for compact radial‑lead installations, this RoHS‑compliant component balances small footprint and verified endurance—1000 hours at 105 °C with polarity inversion—providing a reliable option for equipment that sees temperature extremes or alternating polarities.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 4.7 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and rated voltage of 100 V for high‑voltage general‑purpose filtering and coupling tasks.
- Bi‑Polar Construction — Bi‑polarized design supports applications where polarity reversal can occur; endurance testing includes polarity inversion every 250 hours during a 1000‑hour 105 °C test.
- Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55 °C to +105 °C, supporting designs exposed to broad environmental conditions.
- Ripple Current Capability — Specified ripple handling of 30 mA at 120 Hz and 60 mA at 10 kHz, enabling use across low and higher frequency ripple conditions.
- Leakage Current Specification — Leakage current limited per datasheet: after 5 minutes at rated voltage and 20 °C, I ≤ 0.03 × C × V (µA), providing predictable quiescent behavior.
- Compact Radial Can Package — Radial lead, can‑style package with 2.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.1 × D: 0.63 cm) for through‑hole PCB layouts.
- Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant construction suitable for markets requiring lead‑free components.
Typical Applications
- Bipolar/AC‑Coupled Circuits — Suitable where polarity can reverse or AC coupling is required thanks to its bi‑polarized design and polarity‑inversion endurance testing.
- Power Supply Filtering — Compact radial can provides decoupling and ripple suppression at 100 V systems, with specified ripple current performance at 120 Hz and 10 kHz.
- Industrial and Instrumentation Electronics — Wide −55 °C to +105 °C operating range makes it appropriate for industrial sensors, control modules, and instrumentation exposed to varying temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- Polarity‑Reversal Ready: Bi‑polar construction and endurance testing with polarity inversion enable use in circuits subject to alternating or changing polarity.
- Wide Ambient Tolerance: Rated for −55 °C to +105 °C, reducing the need for additional thermal derating or specialized components in temperature‑challenging assemblies.
- Predictable Endurance: Lifetime characterized as 1000 hours at 105 °C (with polarity inversion every 250 hours), providing a clear, verifiable reliability baseline for design planning.
- Compact Through‑Hole Form Factor: Radial lead, can package with 2.5 mm lead spacing and small footprint simplifies layout for replacement or legacy PCB designs.
- Measured Ripple Ratings: Published ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to match the capacitor to expected ripple environments without guesswork.
- RoHS Compliant: Lead‑free materials support regulatory requirements and simplify supply compliance management.
