UHE1A152MHD6

The UHE1A152MHD6 is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's UHE high-reliability series. It delivers 1500 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating in a compact φ12.5 × 15 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing.

Designed for general-purpose use, this part combines a wide operating temperature range (‑40 °C to 105 °C), long endurance (8000 hours at 105 °C for this size/rating), and low impedance characteristics to support robust power filtering and decoupling in a range of electronic designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1500 µF nominal capacitance with a 10 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing bulk charge storage in a compact package.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 160 mΩ helps reduce voltage ripple and improves transient response under load.
• High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.16 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 1.45 A (10 kHz) for sustained AC ripple handling across common power frequencies.
• Long Endurance — Life rated to 8000 hours at 105 °C (for φD ≥ 12.5, 6.3–10 V), supporting longer service life in thermally demanding environments.
• Leakage and Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 150 µA and a dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.19 at 20 °C, 120 Hz, enabling predictable loss and self-heating behavior.
• Compact Radial Package — φ12.5 × 15 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting simplifies through-hole assembly and mechanical retention.
• Wide Temperature Range — Rated for operation from ‑40 °C to 105 °C to accommodate varied environmental conditions.
• RoHS Compliant & Packaging Options — RoHS compliant with bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing options for flexible procurement and assembly workflows.

Typical Applications

• Power supply smoothing and decoupling — 1500 µF at 10 V with low impedance and rated ripple currents supports bulk smoothing on DC rails and decoupling at power outputs.
• DC‑DC converter outputs — Compact radial package and high ripple handling make it suitable for output filtering in through-hole converter designs.
• Industrial and consumer electronics — Broad operating temperature range (‑40 °C to 105 °C) and long endurance support sustained operation in varied equipment environments.

Unique Advantages

• Compact energy density — 1500 µF in a φ12.5 × 15 mm can provides significant capacitance while minimizing board area.
• Predictable ripple performance — Specified low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (1.16 A at 120 Hz, 1.45 A at 10 kHz) enable reliable selection for both mains-frequency and higher-frequency power stages.
• Durability at elevated temperature — Endurance specified to 8000 hours at 105 °C for this case and voltage combination supports longer maintenance intervals and product lifecycles.
• Low dissipation and controlled leakage — tan δ of 0.19 and leakage current of 150 µA give predictable loss characteristics for thermal and power-budget planning.
• RoHS compliance and flexible packing — Environmentally compliant and available in bulk or bag packing to suit manufacturing processes.
