UHV1C182MPD

The UHV1C182MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UHV series, engineered for low impedance and high ripple environments. With a rated capacitance of 1800 µF at 16 V and a compact φ10 × 25 mm can, it is targeted at general-purpose electronic applications that require robust ripple handling and long operational life.

Designed for high-frequency performance and thermal endurance, this part delivers specified ripple current capability and stability across a wide temperature range, supporting reliable operation in demanding ambient and power conditions.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 1800 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and tolerance of −20% to +20% for predictable energy storage and decoupling.
• Low Impedance Performance: Specified impedance of 51 mΩ, combined with the UHV series’ "High Ripple Low Impedance" design focus to improve high-frequency response.
• High Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 1.485 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.475 A (100 kHz) to support circuits with significant AC stress on the capacitor.
• Thermal Endurance: Rated for operation from −40 °C to +105 °C with a life/endurance specification of 6000 hours at 105 °C for sustained high-temperature applications.
• Loss & Leakage Characteristics: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 at 20 °C, 120 Hz and measured leakage current of 288 µA for controlled dissipation and low standby loss.
• Radial Lead Package: φ10 × 25 mm aluminum can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied in bulk or bag packing and produced in mass quantities.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant as indicated in the product data.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering: Suitable for circuits where bulk capacitance and ripple handling are required to stabilize DC rails and smooth supply variations.
• High-frequency power stages: The UHV series’ lower impedance at higher frequencies supports use where improved high-frequency behavior is needed.
• Long-life thermal environments: With 6000 hours endurance at 105 °C, this capacitor fits designs that require extended operation under elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple current figures at both low and high frequencies enable reliable operation in AC-stressed power circuits.
• Compact energy density: 1800 µF in a φ10 × 25 mm can offers significant capacitance in a small radial package for space-constrained designs.
• Stable high-frequency behavior: Low impedance specification and the UHV series’ focus on reduced high-frequency impedance help improve decoupling effectiveness.
• Extended thermal life: 6000-hour endurance at 105 °C provides predictable aging characteristics for long-term designs.
• Engineered for manufacturing: Radial lead format with defined lead spacing and bulk/bag packing supports straightforward assembly and handling.
