UHV1A272MHD

The UHV1A272MHD is a radial-leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's UHV series designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers high capacitance (2.7 mF / 2700 µF) in a compact φ12.5 × 20 mm can with a 10 V rating, targeting circuits that require bulk energy storage, smoothing and high ripple handling in a small footprint.

Engineered for reliability, the device combines low impedance, defined ripple current capability across low and high frequencies, and a long endurance rating for extended operation up to 105°C.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a rated voltage of 10 V, suitable for bulk filtering and decoupling.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 41 mΩ, supporting effective high-frequency performance and reduced voltage ripple under load.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current: 1.856 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.475 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling robust handling of AC ripple across a wide frequency range.
• Loss and Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified as 0.2 (20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current of 270 µA, allowing predictable dissipation and low standby leakage for power designs.
• Reliability & Endurance — Endurance of 6000 hours at 105°C; designed to meet performance requirements after prolonged DC bias plus rated ripple at elevated temperature.
• Operating Range — Rated for operation from −40°C to +105°C, supporting use in environments with wide temperature variation.
• Compact Radial Package — φ12.5 × 20 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), radial lead mounting for through-hole PCBs and straightforward assembly.
• Packaging & Compliance — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; RoHS compliant and supplied in mass-production status.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and ripple reduction in DC power rails where a 10 V rating and high capacitance are required.
• Decoupling for Switching Supplies — High ripple current capability and low impedance help stabilize switching regulators and converters across low and high frequencies.
• Energy Storage & Hold-up — Provides short-term energy storage in general-purpose circuits that need compact capacitance and defined leakage characteristics.
• Industrial Control Electronics — Suited for general-purpose industrial boards requiring wide operating temperature range and long endurance at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High capacitance in a small can: 2700 µF in a φ12.5 × 20 mm package reduces board area while delivering substantial bulk storage.
• Measured low impedance: 41 mΩ impedance improves high-frequency behavior and reduces ripple voltage under load.
• Robust ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 1.856 A (120 Hz) and 2.475 A (100 kHz) give designers predictable thermal and electrical margins across frequencies.
• Designed for long life at temperature: 6000-hour endurance at 105°C provides long-term stability in thermally demanding applications.
• Wide operating temperature: −40°C to +105°C supports use across many general-purpose environments.
• RoHS-compliant, production-ready: Mass production status and RoHS compliance simplify procurement and regulatory alignment.
