Overview of UFG2A101MHM – High Grade Audio Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UFG2A101MHM is a 100 µF, 100 V polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UFG "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series. It is a radial-lead, can-style component engineered for high-grade audio and AV equipment, offering acoustic-focused etching technology to support enhanced bass presence and clearer high-end reproduction.
Designed for general-purpose use in audio applications, the part combines a compact radial package and through-hole mounting with specified ripple-current capability and established endurance at elevated temperature. The product is RoHS compliant.
Key Features
- Audio‑Tuned MUSE Series "Fine Gold" MUSE acoustic series using state-of-the-art etching techniques to emphasize rich bass register and clearer high end for high-grade audio equipment.
- Electrical Specification 100 µF capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance; polarized construction for DC filtering and coupling in audio circuits.
- Ripple Current Performance Rated ripple current of 300 mA at 120 Hz and 450 mA at 10 kHz, supporting both low-frequency and higher-frequency ripple conditions.
- Thermal & Reliability Operating temperature range −40 °C to +85 °C with a rated lifetime of 1000 hours at 85 °C as specified for endurance.
- Package & Mounting Radial lead, can-style package with 5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 2 × D: 1.25 cm) suitable for through-hole board layouts.
- Leakage Current (series spec) Series specification: after 1 minute at rated voltage and 20 °C, leakage current is not more than 0.01CV or 3 µA (whichever is greater).
- Compliance & Identification RoHS compliant; series marking printed in black on a gold sleeve for clear identification.
Typical Applications
- High‑grade audio equipment Used in high-grade audio components where the MUSE acoustic series' tuning supports improved bass presence and clearer highs.
- AV equipment Suitable for audio/visual systems that benefit from the series’ acoustic characteristics and through-hole mounting robustness.
- General‑purpose electronic circuits Applicable where a polarized aluminum electrolytic with 100 V rating, defined ripple capability, and radial-lead package are required.
Unique Advantages
- Acoustic-focused design: The "Fine Gold" MUSE series and specialized etching techniques are engineered to deliver richer bass and clearer high frequencies, directly addressing audio performance priorities.
- High voltage capability: 100 V rated voltage allows use in higher-voltage audio and general-purpose circuits without additional component complexity.
- Dual-frequency ripple handling: Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz (300 mA) and 10 kHz (450 mA) supports stable operation under varied signal conditions.
- Robust thermal endurance: Rated for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C with a 1000-hour endurance at 85 °C, providing predictable longevity in elevated-temperature environments.
- Compact through-hole form factor: Radial can package with 5 mm lead spacing and small footprint simplifies PCB layout for through-hole assemblies.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports environmental requirements in regulated markets.
