The UHW0J562MHD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHW series, offering 5600 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rated voltage. It combines a miniature can-style package with high ripple current capability and long endurance for general-purpose power applications.

Designed for space-conscious assemblies, this polarized radial capacitor delivers low impedance and stability across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for designs that require compact bulk capacitance with reliable long-term performance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5600 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 6.3 V and a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current of 2.72 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 3.2 A at 100 kHz, supporting elevated AC stress on power rails.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 45 mΩ to help reduce voltage ripple and improve transient response in power circuits.
• Loss Tangent (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.29 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing a quantified dielectric loss characteristic for design verification.
• Long Endurance — Rated life of 10,000 hours at 105°C for extended stability under elevated-temperature operation.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −40°C to +105°C to cover a broad set of environmental conditions.
• Compact Radial Can Package — Case dimension φ12.5 × 25 mm with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied as a radial lead (polar) through-hole component.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 352.8 µA for predictable leakage behavior after application of rated voltage.
• Packaging & Availability — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) / bag packing and currently in mass production.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Provides bulk capacitance for smoothing and ripple reduction where compact, through-hole components are required.
• High-ripple current circuits — Suited to circuits that impose significant AC ripple thanks to rated ripple current at both low and high frequencies.
• Temperature-challenged environments — Reliable performance for applications operating across −40°C to +105°C with long endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple capability: Rated ripple currents of 2.72 A (120 Hz) and 3.2 A (100 kHz) allow the capacitor to handle substantial AC stress without degrading performance.
• Compact footprint: φ12.5 × 25 mm can-style radial package provides large capacitance in a small through-hole form factor for space-limited boards.
• Long-term reliability: 10,000 hours endurance at 105°C supports extended service life in thermally demanding applications.
• Low impedance: 45 mΩ impedance helps minimize voltage ripple and supports stable power delivery under dynamic load conditions.
• Measured dielectric loss: Specified tan δ (0.29 at 20°C, 120 Hz) gives designers a clear parameter for thermal and loss budgeting.
• Predictable leakage: Leakage current specified at 352.8 µA for predictable bias behavior after applying rated voltage.
