UHV1C102MPD6

The UHV1C102MPD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UHV series, offering 1000 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It is engineered for low impedance and high ripple-handling in a compact φ8×20 mm can.

Targeted for general-purpose power applications, this part delivers measurable advantages where high ripple currents, compact size and long-term endurance are required — notably in power supply filtering, DC/DC stages and other electronic designs that need stable bulk capacitance across −40 °C to 105 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — Nominal 1000 µF (1 mF) at 16 V, ±20% tolerance.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 105 mΩ to support fast transient demands and lower ripple voltage.
• High Ripple Current — Handles 930 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.55 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling robust AC ripple performance.
• Long Endurance — Rated for 6000 hours at 105 °C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Compact Radial Can Package — φ8×20L can with radial leads, 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and bulk/bag packing options for straightforward through-hole assembly.
• Controlled Loss & Leakage — tanδ (DF) 0.15 at 20 °C, 120 Hz and leakage current of 160 µA, supporting stable performance in steady-state and startup conditions.
• Wide Operating Range & Compliance — Operating temperature −40 °C to 105 °C; RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and ripple reduction on DC rails where compact, high-capacitance solutions are required.
• DC/DC Converter Input/Output — Input and output decoupling in converters that see significant ripple currents at low and high frequencies.
• General-Purpose Electronics — Suitable for a wide range of consumer, industrial and instrumentation designs that require reliable bulk capacitance and long endurance.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling capability: Rated ripple currents of 930 mA (120 Hz) and 1.55 A (100 kHz) support demanding AC conditions and reduce voltage ripple on power rails.
• Compact footprint: φ8×20 mm radial can with 3.5 mm lead spacing minimizes board area while providing 1000 µF bulk capacitance.
• Long-term durability: 6000 hours at 105 °C assures extended service life under elevated temperature and bias conditions.
• Low leakage and stable loss tangent: Leakage current of 160 µA and tanδ of 0.15 (20 °C, 120 Hz) help maintain efficiency and predictable behavior over time.
• Series design advantage: Part of Nichicon’s UHV family, designed for lower impedance in the high-frequency range and higher ripple capacity.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances.

Why Choose UHV1C102MPD6?

UHV1C102MPD6 combines a high 1000 µF capacitance with a 16 V rating in a small φ8×20 mm radial can, offering designers measurable reductions in ripple and impedance while conserving board space. The 6000-hour endurance at 105 °C and controlled electrical characteristics (tanδ and leakage) make it suitable for designs that require stable bulk capacitance over extended operating periods.

This capacitor is well suited for engineers and procurement teams specifying components for power supply filtering and decoupling in general-purpose electronic systems who need a compact, high-ripple, RoHS-compliant solution from the Nichicon UHV series.
