UFG1K101MHM

The UFG1K101MHM is a high-grade aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series, engineered for high-grade audio and AV equipment. It is a radial lead, can-style capacitor designed to deliver audio-focused performance characteristics—described by the series as producing rich bass and a clearer high end—while meeting RoHS environmental requirements.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 100 µF nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage suitable for higher-voltage audio and AV circuits.
• Audio-Targeted Acoustic Series: Part of the "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic UFG series, using advanced etching techniques to emphasize richer bass register and clearer high-frequency response for AV equipment.
• Package & Mounting: Radial can package with radial lead mounting and 5 mm lead spacing for straightforward through-hole assembly.
• Temperature Range & Lifetime: Rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C with a specified endurance of 1000 hours at 85 °C.
• Ripple Current Ratings: Specified ripple current handling of 270 mA at 120 Hz and 405 mA at 10 kHz for low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Tolerance & Polarization: Capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% and polarized construction for correct DC coupling in audio power circuits.
• Compact Dimensions: Physical size L: 2.0 cm × D: 1.25 cm with a maximum seated height of 2.0 cm, enabling use in space-conscious audio assemblies.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU,(EU)2015/863) for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• High-end AV equipment: Used in audio signal and power stages where the UFG series' acoustic profile supports richer bass and clearer highs.
• Audio amplifiers: Suitable for coupling, decoupling, and power supply smoothing in amplifier designs that require a polarized electrolytic with moderate ripple capability.
• Home theater systems: Applied in power sections and filter networks where reliable performance across −40 °C to 85 °C and measurable ripple handling are required.
• Professional audio gear: Appropriate for mixing consoles, preamps, and other AV components that benefit from the MUSE acoustic series characteristics.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-optimized acoustic profile: The UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE series is specified for richer bass and clearer high end, supporting audible improvements in AV designs.
• High voltage capability: 80 V rating provides headroom for higher-voltage audio power supplies and coupling networks.
• Measured ripple performance: Defined ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to evaluate thermal and ripple-handling requirements precisely.
• Compact radial can form factor: Small L×D footprint and 5 mm lead spacing simplify through-hole layout and replacement in existing board designs.
• Durability under elevated temperature: 1000-hour endurance at 85 °C supports stability in sustained high-temperature operating environments.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity reduces material-compliance risk for global AV product deployments.
