UHV1A152MPD

The UHV1A152MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHV series designed for high ripple and low impedance applications. With 1500 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating, compact φ10 × 16 mm dimensions and a long 6000-hour endurance at 105°C, it targets general-purpose power-filtering and decoupling roles where compact size and sustained ripple handling are required.

Key Features

• High Capacitance, Low Voltage — 1500 µF rated at 10 V delivers bulk energy storage in a compact radial can (φ10 × 16 mm).
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.089 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 1.815 A (100 kHz) support demanding power-supply ripple conditions.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 95 mΩ helps minimize voltage ripple and improves transient response in power circuits.
• Loss Angle (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.18 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, 10 V, enabling predictable AC loss behavior for thermal and performance calculations.
• Long Endurance — Rated for 6000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple conditions, supporting designs that require extended life at elevated temperatures.
• Robust Operating Range — Operating temperature from −40°C to +105°C for use across a wide environmental span.
• Radial Lead Package — Polarized radial-lead can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through-hole mounting and straightforward PCB layout.
• RoHS Compliant & Production Ready — RoHS-compliant construction and mass-production availability; packaged in bulk or bag packing (no terminal forming option).

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and output filtering where high ripple current and low impedance reduce voltage ripple and improve regulator stability.
• DC-DC Converter Output — Energy storage and decoupling on converter outputs where compact size and high-frequency ripple handling are required.
• Industrial Control Electronics — Local energy reservoir and ripple suppression for control boards operating across −40°C to +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Compact energy density — 1500 µF in a φ10 × 16 mm can saves board area while providing substantial capacitance for bulk filtering.
• Designed for ripple — Specified low- and high-frequency ripple currents (1.089 A at 120 Hz, 1.815 A at 100 kHz) let designers size thermal and ripple margins with confidence.
• Predictable loss characteristics — Provided tanδ (0.18 at 20°C/120 Hz/10 V) supports accurate loss and heating estimates during design validation.
• Extended field life at elevated temperature — 6000-hour endurance at 105°C supports long-term reliability in thermally demanding applications.
• Through-hole robustness — Radial-lead form with defined 5 mm lead spacing simplifies mechanical mounting and replacement in serviceable designs.
• Regulatory readiness — RoHS compliance helps streamline environmental and regulatory acceptance.
