UFG1J100MEM

The UFG1J100MEM is a Nichicon UFG series aluminum electrolytic capacitor from the "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, engineered for high‑grade audio and AV equipment. This polarized radial‑lead can offers 10 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating and is designed to contribute to improved bass richness and clearer high‑end reproduction in audio circuits.

Designed for general‑purpose applications in audio systems, the UFG1J100MEM combines compact radial packaging with RoHS compliance and series endurance characteristics suitable for typical AV operating environments.

Key Features

• Audio‑focused Dielectric and Processing Part of Nichicon’s "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, using advanced etching techniques to deliver richer bass and clearer high end for AV equipment.
• Electrical Characteristics 10 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, 63 V rated voltage, and polarized construction optimized for typical audio circuit requirements.
• Low‑frequency and High‑frequency Ripple Capability Specified ripple handling of 50 mA at 120 Hz and 100 mA at 10 kHz to support smoothing and decoupling tasks in audio power paths.
• Temperature and Lifetime Operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C with a rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 85 °C, consistent with UFG series endurance specifications.
• Compact Radial Can Package Radial lead, can‑style package with lead spacing of 2.5 mm and physical dimensions L: 1.1 × D: 0.63 cm for space‑constrained board placements.
• RoHS Compliance Manufactured in compliance with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Series Electrical Quality Metrics UFG series characteristics include low leakage current (≤0.01CV or 3 µA after 1 minute, per series datasheet) and defined tan δ performance for 63 V units (tan δ max. 0.09 at 120 Hz, 20 °C), supporting predictable behavior in audio circuits.

Typical Applications

• AV Receivers and Power Amplifiers Use for smoothing and decoupling in audio power rails where improved bass response and clarity are desired.
• Pre‑amplifiers and Signal Paths Suitable for coupling/decoupling roles in signal stages that benefit from the acoustic tuning of the MUSE series.
• Audio Crossovers and Speaker Networks Compact radial package fits board‑level crossover assemblies and helps preserve tonal character.
• Consumer AV Electronics Applicable for general‑purpose filtering and energy storage in consumer audio/video equipment designed to operate within −40 °C to +85 °C.

Unique Advantages

• Acoustically Tuned Performance: Part of the "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, offering sonic characteristics described as richer bass and clearer high end for audio applications.
• Compact Footprint: Small radial can (L: 1.1 × D: 0.63 cm) and 2.5 mm lead spacing enable dense PCB layouts and easy placement in board‑level audio designs.
• Defined Ripple Ratings: Specified ripple current values at both low and high frequencies (50 mA at 120 Hz, 100 mA at 10 kHz) provide clear selection guidance for power‑handling needs.
• Temperature and Lifetime Data: Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with a 1000‑hour lifetime at 85 °C, allowing designers to align reliability expectations with system thermal profiles.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in designs targeting restricted‑substance requirements.
• Predictable Series Electrical Metrics: UFG series leakage and tan δ specifications give engineers verifiable parameters for modeling and selection.
