Overview of UHW1C152MPD – Miniature High‑Ripple Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UHW1C152MPD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHW series, presented as a radial‑lead, miniature high‑reliability type. It delivers 1500 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ10 × 20L can.
Engineered for general‑purpose electronic applications, the component combines high ripple‑current capability, low impedance and extended endurance (10,000 hours at 105°C) to support power smoothing and decoupling in space‑constrained through‑hole designs.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 1500 µF capacitance at 16 V with tolerance −20% to +20%, tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.15 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, and DC leakage current specified at 240 µA.
- High Ripple Current Handling — Low‑frequency ripple current 1.5 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 2.5 A at 10 kHz for designs with significant AC disturbance.
- Low Impedance — Impedance rated at 60 mΩ to support stable voltage smoothing and transient response.
- Reliability & Endurance — Rated life of 10,000 hours at 105°C under the UHW series endurance conditions.
- Wide Temperature Range — Operating range from −40°C to 105°C for use across varied thermal environments.
- Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead, can package with φ10 × 20L dimensions and 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through‑hole PCB placement.
- Packaging & Compliance — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing and is RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- General‑Purpose Electronics — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple handling for a wide range of general‑purpose circuits as specified in the product data.
- Power Supply Filtering — 1500 µF capacitance combined with 1.5 A (120 Hz) / 2.5 A (10 kHz) ripple ratings supports smoothing and decoupling in power circuits.
- Space‑Constrained Through‑Hole Modules — Compact φ10 × 20L radial can and 5 mm lead spacing fit compact PCB layouts while delivering extended endurance at elevated temperature.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple capability: Rated ripple currents (1.5 A @ 120 Hz, 2.5 A @ 10 kHz) address circuits with significant AC ripple requirements.
- Compact, through‑hole form factor: φ10 × 20L can and 5 mm lead spacing deliver high capacitance in a small radial footprint.
- Low impedance: 60 mΩ impedance supports better voltage stability and transient performance in power stages.
- Extended high‑temperature life: 10,000 hours at 105°C aligns with long‑term reliability needs in demanding environments.
- Wide operating temperature range: −40°C to 105°C for reliable operation across common environmental conditions.
- RoHS compliant supply and flexible packing: Available in bulk or bag packing and compliant with RoHS requirements.
