UHE0J821MPD

The UHE0J821MPD is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHE series. It offers 820 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating in a compact φ10 × 12.5 mm can, designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require reliable bulk capacitance in a small through-hole package.

Key value propositions include low impedance, long-term endurance at elevated temperature, measurable ripple current capability across low and high frequencies, and RoHS compliance for broad system-level compatibility.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 820 µF rated capacitance with a 6.3 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low Impedance: Specified impedance of 320 mOhm and a tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.22 at 20°C, 120 Hz for reduced AC loss and improved filtering performance.
• Long Life Endurance: Rated for 6000 hours at 105°C under the UHE long-life specification for 6.3–10 V units, supporting extended operating lifetimes in high-temperature environments.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operating temperature range from –40°C to +105°C for use across varied environmental conditions.
• Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 648.8 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 865 mA at 10 kHz, enabling effective ripple handling across common frequencies.
• Leakage Current: Measured leakage current of 51.66 µA, suitable for applications where low standby leakage is required.
• Radial Lead Package: Through-hole radial can (φ10 × 12.5L) with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and standard bulk/bag packing for straightforward hand or wave assembly.
• Compliance & Availability: RoHS compliant and in mass production under Nichicon’s UHE series.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics: Provides bulk capacitance and energy storage for a wide range of low-voltage circuits where a 6.3 V rating and compact size are required.
• Power Supply Smoothing: Low impedance and specified ripple current ratings make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and decoupling in DC power rails up to 6.3 V.
• Through-Hole Assemblies: Radial-lead format with 5 mm lead spacing fits conventional through-hole PCB layouts and assembly methods.

Unique Advantages

• Compact High Capacitance: 820 µF in a φ10 × 12.5 mm can delivers significant capacitance where board area is limited.
• Low Impedance for Improved Filtering: 320 mOhm impedance and a controlled tanδ improve AC performance for filtering and ripple suppression.
• Designed for Elevated-Temperature Service: 6000-hour endurance at 105°C supports longer mean-time-between-failures in thermally stressed designs.
• Broad Ripple Handling: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz demonstrate capability across both low- and high-frequency power domains.
• Practical Through-Hole Form Factor: Radial lead spacing and standard packaging simplify prototyping and production for legacy or industrial PCBs.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory and supply-chain requirements.
