UHE2A151MHD

The UHE2A151MHD from Nichicon is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can. It delivers 150 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating with a compact φ16 × 15 mm package and radial mounting for through-hole assemblies.

Designed for general-purpose electronic designs, the UHE2A151MHD pairs low impedance and extended endurance—10000 hours at 105°C—with measurable ripple handling and controlled leakage for robust performance in demanding thermal and voltage environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 150 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Rated Voltage & Polarization — 100 V rated voltage; polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for applications requiring high DC voltage handling.
• Low Impedance & Loss — Measured impedance of 660 mΩ and tan δ (loss tangent) of 0.08 at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting low-loss operation.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 626.5 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 895 mA (10 kHz), with frequency-dependent coefficients defined by the UHE series.
• High Reliability Endurance — Rated for 10000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, consistent with the UHE series’ long-life specification.
• Temperature Range — Operating from −40°C to +105°C for broad environmental tolerance.
• Compact Radial Package — φ16 × 15 mm can, radial lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm) and lead-type for through-hole mounting; available in bulk or bag packing.
• RoHS Compliant — Manufactured in compliance with RoHS requirements.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronics — Engineered for general-purpose circuit designs that require a 150 µF, 100 V polarized capacitor with extended endurance and low impedance.
• Through-hole power modules — Radial lead package and compact φ16 × 15 mm form factor suit through-hole assemblies where a high-voltage electrolytic is required.
• Industrial and equipment designs — Temperature rating to 105°C and 10000-hour endurance support use in equipment subject to elevated operating temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• Extended high-temperature lifetime — 10000 hours at 105°C provides predictable aging characteristics for long-term designs.
• Low-loss electrical performance — 660 mΩ impedance and tan δ of 0.08 at 120 Hz help minimize energy dissipation in filtering and decoupling roles.
• Frequency-aware ripple handling — Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz (626.5 mA and 895 mA respectively) clarify expected performance across common ripple environments.
• Compact footprint for through-hole builds — φ16 × 15 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing balances capacitance and board space in radial-mount assemblies.
• Series pedigree — Part of Nichicon’s UHE family known for miniature size, low impedance, and high reliability across 6000–10000 hour rated lives.
• RoHS compliance and standard packaging — Meets RoHS requirements and is available in bulk or bag packing to suit production and prototyping workflows.

Why Choose UHE2A151MHD?

The UHE2A151MHD is positioned for designs that need a compact, high-voltage polarized capacitor with demonstrable low impedance and long-term endurance. Its combination of 150 µF at 100 V, controlled loss tangent, and specified ripple current allows engineers to select a single, well-documented part for applications operating up to 105°C.

Manufactured by Nichicon as part of the UHE series, this capacitor suits general-purpose electronic and industrial designs that prioritize predictable aging, frequency-aware ripple performance, and a small through-hole package for board-level integration.
