UHV1C331MPD

The UHV1C331MPD is a Nichicon UHV series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, specified at 330 µF and 16 V. It combines a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm case with low impedance characteristics for high-frequency performance.

Designed for general-purpose power filtering and bulk decoupling in compact assemblies, this part delivers defined ripple current capability and long-term endurance across a −40 °C to 105 °C operating range.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 330 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low impedance / High-frequency performance — Specified impedance of 181 mΩ and a high-frequency ripple current rating (830 mA at 100 kHz) support reduced voltage ripple in demanding ripple environments.
• Ripple current capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 415 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 830 mA at 100 kHz, enabling effective smoothing across a wide frequency range.
• Electrical loss and leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.15 (20 °C, 120 Hz) and a measured leakage current of 52.8 µA provide predictable loss and standby characteristics.
• Thermal endurance — Rated for continuous operation from −40 °C to 105 °C with an endurance specification of 6000 hours at 105 °C.
• Compact radial package — Radial lead mounting in a φ8 × 11.5 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and availability in bulk or bag packing options for PCB-level assembly flexibility.
• Regulatory status — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Bulk smoothing and ripple reduction where 330 µF / 16 V capacitance and defined ripple current are required.
• Decoupling and bulk energy storage — Provides local energy buffering and decoupling for compact electronic assemblies operating within −40 °C to 105 °C.
• High-frequency ripple environments — Low impedance and specified 100 kHz ripple current capability make this capacitor suitable for circuits exposed to higher-frequency switching noise.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint with high ripple handling — φ8 × 11.5 mm case delivers significant ripple current capability (up to 830 mA at 100 kHz) in a small radial package.
• Predictable performance over temperature — Specified operation from −40 °C to 105 °C and 6000-hour endurance at 105 °C support reliable long-term use in elevated-temperature environments.
• Defined electrical characteristics — Low impedance (181 mΩ), tan δ of 0.15, and a specified leakage current enable straightforward thermal and loss budgeting in designs.
• Flexible packing options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to match assembly and handling preferences.
• Manufacturing readiness — Product status: Mass Production, suitable for volume procurement and integration.
