UHV1C332MHD6

The UHV1C332MHD6 is a Nichicon UHV series miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can designed for high reliability and high ripple handling. It delivers 3.3 mF of capacitance at a 16 V rating with low impedance characteristics and long endurance for demanding general‑purpose electronic power designs.

Built for applications that require compact bulk capacitance, elevated ripple current capability and extended life at elevated temperature, this capacitor combines a small φ16×20 mm case with a 6000‑hour endurance at 105°C and RoHS compliance.

Key Features

• Electrical performance — 3.3 mF (3300 µF) capacitance with ±20% tolerance and polarization suited for DC applications where bulk energy storage is required.
• Low impedance — Specified impedance of 36 mΩ, supporting effective high‑frequency decoupling and low loss under dynamic load.
• High ripple capability — Rated low‑frequency ripple current 2.681 A (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 3.575 A (100 kHz), enabling robust handling of AC ripple and switching currents.
• Loss characteristics — Dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.19 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, allowing predictable losses for thermal and circuit budget calculations.
• Reliability and lifetime — Endurance specified at 6000 hours at 105°C; leakage current 528 µA (measured condition), supporting long service life in elevated temperature environments.
• Mechanical package — Radial lead can, case size φ16×20 mm with 7.5 mm lead spacing and lead spacing tolerance ±0.5 mm; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for flexible assembly handling.
• Environment and compliance — RoHS compliant and offered as a mass‑production part in the Nichicon UHV series.

Typical Applications

• Power supply smoothing — Provides compact bulk capacitance and high ripple current capability for smoothing DC rails and absorbing switching transients.
• DC link and energy storage — 3.3 mF capacitance and low impedance support short‑term energy buffering and stabilization in converter or regulator circuits.
• General‑purpose electronic power systems — Suitable for designs requiring a long endurance (6000 h at 105°C), compact footprint, and RoHS compliance.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 2.681 A (120 Hz) and 3.575 A (100 kHz) reduce heating and extend operational stability under AC stress.
• Low ESR/low impedance: 36 mΩ impedance helps minimize voltage drop and power loss in high‑current power paths.
• Extended high‑temperature life: 6000‑hour endurance at 105°C supports reliable operation in thermally demanding environments.
• Compact radial package: φ16×20 mm case with standard 7.5 mm lead spacing fits space‑constrained designs while providing robust through‑hole mounting.
• Predictable loss behavior: Specified tan δ and leakage current provide measurable parameters for thermal management and reliability modelling.
• RoHS compliant and production ready: Mass production status and environmental compliance simplify qualification and procurement.
