UHW0J182MPD

The UHW0J182MPD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, designed for general-purpose electronic designs that require compact size and robust ripple-current handling. Manufactured by Nichicon as part of the UHW series, it combines 1.8 mF capacitance with a low 6.3 V rated voltage and a compact φ10 × 16 mm package.

Engineered for demanding operating conditions, this part offers high-frequency performance, specified ripple-current capability at both low and high frequencies, and a long endurance rating of 10,000 hours at 105°C, making it suitable for applications where sustained performance and reliability are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 1.8 mF (1800 µF) with ±20% tolerance for stable bulk energy storage in compact footprints.
• Rated Voltage — 6.3 V rated voltage suitable for low-voltage power rails and decoupling tasks.
• High Ripple-Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 1.2 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.0 A (10 kHz) to support circuits with significant AC load components.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 90 mΩ to minimize voltage drop under ripple and transient conditions.
• Electrical Losses — tanδ (DF) 0.21 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; DF condition documented for design verification.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 113.4 µA for predictable bias behavior after voltage application.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −40°C to +105°C with a rated endurance of 10,000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions.
• Compact Radial Can — Size φ10 × 16 mm (16 mm length × 10 mm diameter) with radial lead spacing 5 mm (±0.5 mm) for through-hole assemblies and tight board placement.
• Compliance & Packaging — RoHS compliant; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing. Part is in mass production.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic designs — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple filtering where compact, radial-lead electrolytic capacitors are required.
• Power-management circuits — Handles high ripple current at both low and high frequencies to support power rails and decoupling in compact layouts.
• High-temperature environments — Rated for operation to 105°C with 10,000-hour endurance for designs that need extended life under elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple capacity in a small package: 1.2 A (120 Hz) and 2.0 A (10 kHz) ripple-current ratings paired with a φ10 × 16 mm can let designers save board space without compromising ripple handling.
• Predictable impedance and loss characteristics: 90 mΩ impedance and a documented tanδ at 20°C/120 Hz enable straightforward AC and decoupling calculations.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: 10,000 hours at 105°C provides a quantified lifetime metric for long-term reliability planning.
• Through-hole radial convenience: 5 mm lead spacing with a standard radial can simplifies prototyping and replacement in through-hole assemblies.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant construction supports environmental and manufacturing requirements.
