UHE1C272MHD

The UHE1C272MHD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can from Nichicon's UHE series. It delivers 2700 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating with low impedance and long endurance characteristics targeted at general-purpose electronic designs.

Engineered for continuous operation across a wide temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) and offered in bulk or bag packing, this radial-lead unit is suitable where compact size, robust ripple handling and long life are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2700 µF (2.7 mF) nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for general-purpose energy storage.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 78 mΩ, supporting lower ESR operation in compact footprint.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 2.12 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.65 A (10 kHz) to support filtering and decoupling under AC load conditions.
• Long Endurance — Qualified for 10,000 hours at 105°C (for 16 V, φ12.5 case), providing extended operational life in elevated-temperature environments.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 432 µA and tanδ of 0.18 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), enabling predictable loss and self-discharge behavior.
• Compact Radial Package — Mechanical size φ12.5 × 30.5 mm with 5.0 mm lead spacing (tolerance ±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through-hole designs.
• Environmental Compliance & Production Status — RoHS compliant and in mass production; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.

Typical Applications

• General Purpose — Suited for general-purpose electronic equipment requiring bulk capacitance and long-term reliability.
• General Purpose — Applicable where compact radial-lead electrolytic capacitors are needed for through-hole assemblies.
• General Purpose — Useful in applications that demand sustained operation across −40°C to +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Extended high-temperature life: Rated for 10,000 hours at 105°C for the 16 V, φ12.5 case, giving designers predictable longevity under thermal stress.
• Robust ripple handling: Specified ripple currents of 2.12 A (120 Hz) and 2.65 A (10 kHz) support AC loading at both low and high frequencies.
• Low impedance footprint: 78 mΩ impedance helps reduce voltage drop and heat generation in compact power circuits.
• Compact radial format: φ12.5 × 30.5 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing provides a space-efficient through-hole solution.
• Predictable electrical loss and leakage: tanδ (0.18 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current (432 µA) are specified for reliable circuit behavior.
• RoHS compliant and production-ready: Environmentally compliant and available in mass production quantities with standard packaging options.
