UHD0J122MPD

The UHD0J122MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor with 1200 µF rated capacitance and a 6.3 V working voltage. It is part of Nichicon’s UHD series, designed for low impedance and high ripple-current performance in a compact φ8 × 20 mm can.

Targeted at general-purpose electronic applications, this capacitor offers high ripple handling, a wide operating temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) and a 3000-hour endurance at 105°C, making it suitable for power smoothing, decoupling and other board-level energy storage needs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1200 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 6.3 V with ±20% tolerance, providing bulk capacitance for smoothing and decoupling.
• Low Impedance / High Ripple Capability — Designed for lower impedance at high frequency and specified ripple ratings of 1.00 A at 120 Hz and 1.25 A at 100 kHz to support regulator and converter output filtering.
• Compact Radial Can Package — φ8 × 20 mm aluminum can with radial leads and 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), enabling dense board placement in through-hole designs.
• Temperature and Endurance — Rated for −40°C to +105°C with an endurance specification of 3000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple conditions.
• Electrical Characteristics — Dissipation factor (tan δ) specified at 0.22 (20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current listed as 75.6 µA, giving predictable loss and leakage behavior for power-sensitive designs.
• Compliance & Packaging — RoHS-compliant material construction; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for flexible procurement and assembly workflows.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Smoothing — Bulk capacitance and high ripple capability make it suitable for smoothing outputs of linear regulators and switching supplies.
• Decoupling for Converters — Low impedance at high frequency helps maintain stability and reduce output voltage ripple in DC‑DC converters and regulator stages.
• Embedded and Industrial Electronics — Compact can size and wide temperature range support general-purpose energy storage and transient buffering in consumer and industrial boards.
• Audio and Analog Circuits — Bulk filtering and reservoir applications where stable capacitance and predictable leakage are required.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple Endurance: Specified ripple currents (1.00 A at 120 Hz, 1.25 A at 100 kHz) reduce the need for multiple parallel parts and simplify thermal planning.
• Low High‑Frequency Impedance: UHD series design lowers impedance in the high-frequency range, improving filtering performance for switching and fast-transient loads.
• Compact Footprint: φ8 × 20 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing supports space-constrained through-hole designs while delivering substantial capacitance.
• Wide Operating Range and Proven Endurance: −40°C to +105°C rating with 3000 hours life at 105°C under rated conditions helps ensure reliable operation in challenging environments.
• Predictable Electrical Behavior: Published tan δ (0.22) and measured leakage current (75.6 µA) enable accurate loss and standby current budgeting in system designs.
• RoHS Compliant and Production Ready: Environmentally compliant construction and mass-production status simplify integration into product lifecycles.
