UHV1A152MPD6

The UHV1A152MPD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 1.5 mF capacitance at 10 V in a compact φ8 × 20 mm can. It is part of Nichicon's UHV series designed for low impedance and high ripple capability.

Engineered for general-purpose power applications, this polarized capacitor provides high ripple current handling, extended endurance at elevated temperature, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable for a range of embedded and industrial designs that require reliable bulk energy storage and filtering.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1500 µF rated at 10 V for bulk energy storage and smoothing in low-voltage power rails.
• Low Impedance: Specified impedance of 105 mΩ, optimized for improved performance at higher frequencies.
• High Ripple Current: Rated ripple current of 930 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.55 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support demanding ripple environments.
• Loss Tangent (tan δ): tanδ = 0.18 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz (10 V rated) for predictable dissipation characteristics.
• Long Endurance: Lifetime specified as 6000 hours at 105°C, with capacitance change and leakage limits defined after endurance testing.
• Robust Temperature Range: Operates from −40°C to +105°C to cover a wide range of environmental conditions.
• Compact Radial Package: φ8 × 20 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through-hole assemblies.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 150 µA (0.01CV after 2 minutes at 20°C), consistent with the product's capacitance and rated voltage.
• Compliance & Packaging: RoHS compliant; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing. Status: Mass production.

Typical Applications

• Power supply smoothing: Bulk capacitance and rated ripple current make the device suitable for smoothing and energy storage on low-voltage power rails.
• DC–DC converter output filtering: Low impedance and high-frequency ripple capability support output decoupling for point-of-load converters.
• Industrial control electronics: Durable temperature range and 6000-hour endurance at 105°C meet the needs of long-life control and drive systems.
• Consumer and embedded systems: Compact φ8×20 mm package and radial-lead mounting simplify integration into through-hole power boards and retrofit designs.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 1.55 A at 100 kHz and 930 mA at 120 Hz lets designers handle substantial AC stress without oversizing the capacitor.
• Predictable high-frequency performance: Low impedance (105 mΩ) and a specified tanδ provide reliable filtering behavior across frequency ranges.
• Extended operational life: 6000 hours at 105°C provides longevity for designs expected to run continuously in elevated-temperature environments.
• Compact through-hole form factor: φ8 × 20 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing saves PCB area while retaining through-hole robustness for power applications.
• Standards-aligned leakage specification: Leakage current consistent with 0.01CV measurement (≈150 µA for this part) simplifies thermal and standby current budgeting.
• RoHS compliant & production-ready: Environmentally compliant material set and mass-production status support volume manufacturing and regulatory needs.
