UKL1J100MED

The UKL1J100MED is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UKL series, offering a 10 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating with a compact φ6.3 × 11 mm can. Designed for applications that benefit from low leakage and defined ripple performance, this polarized capacitor targets audio and related electronic circuits that require stable filtering and coupling solutions.

Key electrical characteristics include low leakage current, defined ripple current ratings at both low and high frequencies, and an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85°C. Note: this product is listed as End Of Life and is scheduled for discontinuation; it is not recommended for new designs.

Key Features

• Electrical: 10 µF, 63 V, ±20% tolerance — Provides a 10 µF capacitance with standard ±20% tolerance for 63 V rated circuits.
• Low leakage current — Specified leakage of 1.26 µA supports low-bias loss and helps preserve DC operating points in sensitive circuits.
• Ripple current performance — Rated ripple current of 75 mA at 120 Hz and 150 mA at 10 kHz, enabling effective filtering across low- and high-frequency ranges.
• Reliability and life — Endurance specified at 2000 hours at 85°C, with an operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C for predictable long-term behavior under rated stress.
• Package and mounting — Compact radial can, size φ6.3 × 11 mm with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), for through-hole PCB mounting and straightforward assembly.
• RoHS compliant and packaging options — RoHS-compliant construction; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.

Typical Applications

• Audio equipment — Suited for audio circuits where low leakage and stable capacitance at 63 V support power supply smoothing and signal coupling/decoupling.
• Power filtering in compact electronics — Compact radial-can footprint and specified ripple ratings make it suitable for localized decoupling and filtering tasks in space-constrained designs.
• General-purpose electronic assemblies — Through-hole radial mounting and standard lead spacing simplify replacement and prototyping in legacy and repair applications.

Unique Advantages

• Low DC leakage: 1.26 µA leakage reduces bias drift and helps maintain signal integrity in DC-coupled audio circuits.
• Dual-frequency ripple capability: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz provide predictable performance across common power and audio frequency ranges.
• Compact radial form factor: φ6.3 × 11 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing offers a small through-hole solution for boards with limited real estate.
• Defined endurance: 2000 hours at 85°C gives a quantified expectation of life under rated temperature and voltage stress for engineering trade-offs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental requirements for assemblies and product lines.

Why Choose UKL1J100MED?

UKL1J100MED delivers a compact, low-leakage electrolytic option for designers needing a 10 µF, 63 V polarized capacitor with measured ripple performance at both low and high frequencies. Its combination of small radial packaging, predictable endurance at elevated temperature, and RoHS compliance makes it a practical choice for audio and general-purpose filtering tasks where these specific electrical attributes are required.

Because this part is End Of Life and scheduled for discontinuation, it is well-suited for sustainment, repair, and bump-in-the-road production needs where an exact match to existing designs is required, but it is not recommended for new product designs.
