UHE1C562MHD6

The UHE1C562MHD6 is a high-reliability, miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHE series. It is a radial-lead, polarized capacitor rated at 16 V with a nominal capacitance of 5600 µF (5.6 mF) and ±20% tolerance.

Designed for general-purpose electronic power applications, the part combines high ripple-current capability, low impedance, and long life performance—making it suitable for bulk energy storage, smoothing and decoupling in a variety of designs operating between −40 °C and 105 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 5600 µF nominal (5.6 mF) with a capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Rated Voltage — 16 V DC rating suitable for low-voltage power rails and supply filtering.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 40 mΩ, supporting effective decoupling and low-voltage-drop smoothing.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 3.336 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 4.17 A at 10 kHz, enabling better AC stress tolerance in power circuits.
• Loss Angle (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.24 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, 16 V for predictable dissipation characteristics.
• Long Endurance — Rated life of 10,000 hours at 105 °C under specified conditions, delivering extended service in demanding thermal environments.
• Operating Temperature Range — −40 °C to +105 °C for broad environmental compatibility.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead (can) package; dimensions φ18 × 30.5 mm length with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm).
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 896 µA after standard application conditions.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• Power supply smoothing — Bulk capacitance and low impedance make it suitable for smoothing DC rails and reducing ripple in general-purpose power supplies.
• Decoupling and bulk energy storage — High ripple-current ratings support transient energy delivery and decoupling on low-voltage power buses.
• Industrial and consumer electronics — Robust temperature range and long life make it applicable where extended operational life and reliability are required in general-purpose circuits.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple current tolerance: 3.336 A at 120 Hz and 4.17 A at 10 kHz reduce heating and extend service life under AC stress.
• Low impedance performance: 40 mΩ impedance provides effective filtering and helps minimize voltage drop across the capacitor under load.
• Extended high-temperature endurance: 10,000-hour rating at 105 °C supports long-term reliability in thermally demanding installations.
• Compact, radial-lead form factor: φ18 × 30.5 mm size with 7.5 mm lead spacing enables easy through-hole mounting and straightforward PCB integration.
• Measured dissipation characteristics: tan δ = 0.24 (20 °C, 120 Hz, 16 V) provides predictable ESR-related losses for thermal and circuit design.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction simplifies environmental compliance for commercial products.
