Overview of UHW1J680MPD – 68 µF, 63 V Radial Lead Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UHW1J680MPD is a radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UHW series, offering a miniature φ8×11.5 mm can with high ripple current capability and long endurance. It is a polarized, general‑purpose capacitor specified for a 68 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating and is designed for applications that require compact size, low impedance at higher frequencies, and durable performance across a wide temperature range.
Built to the UHW series specification, the part provides measurable low‑frequency and high‑frequency ripple handling, controlled dissipation factor, and a 10,000‑hour endurance at 105°C, making it suitable for demanding general‑purpose electronic designs.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 63 V and tolerance of -20% to +20%.
- Radial Lead Package — Radial lead, polarized aluminum can in a compact φ8×11.5 mm size with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance); available in bulk or bag packing.
- High Ripple Current — Low‑frequency ripple current of 380 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current of 950 mA (10 kHz) to support AC ripple and smoothing requirements.
- Low‑Frequency Characteristics — Specified impedance of 1.3 Ω and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.09 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for stable performance.
- Long Endurance — Rated for 10,000 hours of life at 105°C per the UHW series endurance specification.
- Wide Operating Temperature — Operates from -40°C to +105°C for use across varied thermal environments.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 42.84 µA.
- RoHS Compliant — Conforms to the RoHS directive as indicated for the UHW series.
Typical Applications
- General Purpose Electronic Circuits — Compact radial‑lead form factor for general‑purpose smoothing, filtering and energy storage where space is limited and reliable ripple handling is needed.
- Power Supply Modules — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple handling in DC power assemblies operating up to 63 V and across -40°C to 105°C.
- Signal and Board‑Level Filtering — Low impedance and defined tan δ at 120 Hz make it suitable for board‑level filtering in consumer and industrial electronics.
Unique Advantages
- Compact high‑ripple performance: φ8×11.5 mm case combined with 380 mA (120 Hz) and 950 mA (10 kHz) ripple ratings delivers a small footprint without sacrificing ripple capability.
- Measurable low impedance: Rated 1.3 Ω impedance and tan δ = 0.09 (20°C, 120 Hz) for predictable AC behavior in design calculations.
- Long, specified endurance: 10,000 hours at 105°C provides defined life expectations for sustained thermal stress.
- Wide temperature range: -40°C to +105°C operation supports use in varied environmental conditions.
- Packaged for manufacturing flexibility: Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit different assembly workflows.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS‑compliant construction for use in regulated supply chains.
