UKL1A101MED

The UKL1A101MED is a low‑leakage aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can, offering 100 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating. Its compact φ6.3×11 mm package and radial leads are intended for through‑hole mounting in compact electronic assemblies.

Designed for audio applications, this unit combines low leakage (2 µA), measurable ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies, and a rated endurance of 2000 hours at 85 °C to support biasing and smoothing roles in audio circuitry and related embedded systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 10 V rated voltage.
• Low Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 2 µA, supporting circuits that require retained charge or low standby current.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current of 180 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current of 270 mA (100 kHz), enabling use where AC ripple handling is needed.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating range −40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C.
• Compact Radial Package — φ6.3×11 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through‑hole designs; size dimension L: 1.1 × D: 0.63 cm.
• RoHS Compliance — Manufactured in compliance with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Product Status — End Of Life; this part is scheduled for discontinuation and is not recommended for new designs.

Typical Applications

• Audio circuitry — Use in audio devices where low leakage and 100 µF capacitance at 10 V support biasing, coupling, or local energy storage.
• Embedded modules for audio — Through‑hole radial package suits compact module boards and retrofit or hand‑assembled PCBs in audio products.
• Power smoothing in low‑voltage audio stages — Ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow handling of both low‑frequency and higher‑frequency ripple components common in audio power rails.

Unique Advantages

• Low standby leakage — 2 µA leakage current reduces unintended discharge in bias networks and standby conditions.
• Dual‑frequency ripple performance — Specified ripple current at both low and high frequencies provides predictable behavior across audio‑relevant frequency ranges.
• Small footprint — φ6.3×11 mm can and 2.5 mm lead spacing enable space‑constrained board layouts while retaining through‑hole reliability.
• Temperature and endurance rating — −40 °C to +85 °C operating range and 2000 hours at 85 °C provide defined lifetime expectations for thermal environments up to the rated limit.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS compliance supports use in assemblies requiring restricted‑substance conformity.

Why Choose UKL1A101MED?

UKL1A101MED is positioned for designs that require a compact, low‑leakage aluminum electrolytic capacitor with clear ripple‑handling figures and an established endurance specification.
