Overview of UHE1C272MHD6 – Miniature Low-Impedance Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor (Radial Lead)
The UHE1C272MHD6 is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHE series, offering 2.7 mF (2700 µF) at 16 V in a compact φ16 × 20 mm can. It combines low impedance and high ripple handling with long-life endurance for general-purpose electronic designs.
Designed for through-hole applications that require bulk capacitance, low loss, and elevated temperature endurance, this part is suited to equipment where space is limited but reliability and ripple performance are important.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) rated at 16 V, tolerance ±20% for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
- Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 78 mΩ to minimize voltage drop under ripple and improve transient response.
- Low Loss (tan δ) — Loss tangent (DF) of 0.18 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, indicating low dissipation for smoother operation.
- High Ripple Current Capability — 2.024 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.53 A at 10 kHz (high frequency) to handle AC ripple across applications.
- Long-Life Endurance — Rated for 10,000 hours at 105°C, supporting reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 432 µA under rated conditions.
- Compact Radial-Lead Package — φ16 × 20 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for easy through-hole assembly in space-constrained PCBs; available in bulk or bag packing.
- Wide Operating Temperature — −40°C to 105°C for operation across common environmental conditions.
- RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.
Typical Applications
- Power supply smoothing — Bulk capacitance and low impedance reduce ripple and stabilize DC rails in general-purpose power supplies.
- DC‑DC converter output filtering — High ripple current capability and low ESR help with output filtering and transient suppression in converter stages.
- Industrial and consumer electronics — Compact size and long-life rating suit control modules, instrumentation, and other general-purpose equipment that require reliable bulk energy storage.
Unique Advantages
- Space-efficient bulk capacitance — 2700 µF in a φ16 × 20 mm package lets designers add substantial capacitance where board real estate is constrained.
- Improved ripple handling — Combined low impedance (78 mΩ) and specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support reliable performance under AC stress.
- Extended high-temperature life — 10,000-hour endurance at 105°C supports longer service intervals and predictable ageing in elevated-temperature applications.
- Through-hole robustness — Radial lead format with 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies assembly and makes the part suitable for hand or wave soldered boards.
- Measured loss characteristics — DF/tan δ specified at 20°C, 120 Hz (0.18) provides a verifiable metric for thermal and dissipation planning.
- Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliance aligns with modern supply-chain and manufacturing requirements.
