Overview of UKL1A101KED – Low-Leakage Radial Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 100 µF / 10 V
The UKL1A101KED is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor delivering 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 10 V rating. Engineered for low leakage and compact board-level mounting, it targets audio and general-purpose electronics where stable polarization and moderate ripple handling are required.
This capacitor combines a small φ6.3 × 11 mm can with radial leads (2.5 mm lead spacing) and a specified endurance of 2000 hours at 85°C, providing predictable performance across a −40°C to 85°C operating range.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage: 100 µF nominal capacitance with ±10% tolerance at 120 Hz, rated for 10 V operation to support DC decoupling and filtering tasks.
- Low Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 2 µA (measured condition per product data), minimizing stand-by discharge and bias drift in sensitive circuits.
- Ripple Handling: Rated ripple current of 180 mA at 120 Hz and 270 mA at 10 kHz, enabling effective smoothing of both low- and higher-frequency ripple components.
- Reliability & Endurance: Endurance specified at 2000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage, with shelf-life and stability characteristics defined in the series datasheet.
- Package & Mounting: Radial lead, can-style package sized φ6.3 × 11 mm with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), available in bulk or bag packing for flexible assembly.
- Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliant construction per the provided product information.
Typical Applications
- Audio electronics: Decoupling and power supply smoothing in audio preamplifiers, filters, and other audio circuitry where low leakage helps preserve bias and signal integrity.
- Power filtering: Local supply bypass and ripple attenuation on low-voltage rails in compact electronic modules.
- Embedded electronics: General-purpose energy storage and smoothing in small, board-mounted designs that require a compact radial can form factor.
Unique Advantages
- Low standby loss: The 2 µA leakage current specification reduces unwanted discharge and helps maintain bias levels in sensitive circuits.
- Wide ripple frequency coverage: Ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 10 kHz support both mains-frequency smoothing and higher-frequency decoupling needs.
- Compact radial footprint: φ6.3 × 11 mm can and 2.5 mm lead spacing save PCB area while preserving through-hole mounting robustness.
- Temperature endurance: Rated for operation from −40°C to 85°C with a 2000-hour endurance at 85°C, providing predictable life under specified thermal stress.
- RoHS compliance: Meets RoHS requirements for restrictive substance control in commercial electronic products.
