UHV1A151MDD

The UHV1A151MDD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's UHV series, optimized for low impedance and high ripple capability in a compact can package. With a 150 µF capacitance at 10 V rated voltage and a small φ5 × 11 mm footprint, it is suited for general-purpose electronic designs that require board-mounted bulk capacitance and stable performance across a wide temperature range.

Designed for reliable operation from −40°C to +105°C and an endurance rating of 5000 hours at 105°C, this component balances compact size with measurable ripple handling and low loss for power conditioning and decoupling in through-hole assemblies.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 150 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 10 V and tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low loss (tan δ) — tanδ of 0.18 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting efficient energy storage with limited dielectric loss.
• Ripple current capability — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 144 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 360 mA at 100 kHz to support filtering in noisy power rails.
• Low leakage current — Typical leakage current specified at 15 µA, supporting stable bias performance after voltage application.
• Robust temperature and life ratings — Operating temperature range from −40°C to +105°C and endurance of 5000 hours at 105°C.
• Compact radial can package — Small form factor: φ5 × 11 mm (L × D: 1.1 × 0.5 cm) with 2.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), radial lead mounting for through-hole PCB designs.
• RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as noted for the UHV series.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic circuits — Provides bulk capacitance for a wide range of consumer and industrial PCB assemblies requiring 150 µF at 10 V.
• Through-hole power modules — Radial lead package and compact can size suit board-mounted power conditioning where space is constrained.
• Low-voltage power rails — Use for decoupling and smoothing on 10 V and lower rails where ripple management is needed.

Unique Advantages

• Compact high-performance footprint — φ5 × 11 mm can delivers meaningful capacitance in a minimal board area for dense designs.
• Measured ripple handling — Specified ripple currents (144 mA @120 Hz, 360 mA @100 kHz) provide designers with quantifiable filtering capability across frequencies.
• Stable across wide temperatures — Rated for −40°C to +105°C operation and 5000-hour endurance at 105°C for predictable long-term behavior in varying environments.
• Low loss and leakage — tanδ of 0.18 and 15 µA leakage current help maintain efficiency and reduce standby drain in low-voltage circuits.
• Through-hole mounting simplicity — Radial leads with 2 mm spacing simplify assembly for prototyping and production using standard through-hole processes.
• RoHS compliance — Conforms to RoHS requirements as specified for the UHV series.
