UKL2A100MPD

The UKL2A100MPD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UKL low-leakage series. It is a radial‑lead, polarized capacitor specified at 10 µF with a 100 V rated voltage and a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm can.

This part is targeted for audio applications where low leakage and defined ripple handling are required. The device offers specified ripple performance across low and high frequencies and is rated for operation from −40 °C to 85 °C with 2000 hours endurance at 85 °C. Status: End Of Life.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 10 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance.
• Rated Voltage — 100 V DC rated voltage for higher‑voltage circuit requirements.
• Low Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 2 µA, supporting designs that require minimized standby or bias current.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low frequency ripple current 90 mA at 120 Hz and high frequency ripple current 180 mA at 10 kHz, enabling defined AC ripple handling across frequencies.
• Endurance & Temperature Range — 2000 hours life at 85 °C with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 85 °C.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, polarized can package, physical size φ8 × 11.5 mm (L), lead spacing 3.5 mm (±0.5 mm), supplied bulk or bag packed (no terminal forming).
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS requirements as noted in the product data.

Typical Applications

• Audio — Designed for audio circuits where controlled leakage and specified ripple handling are important for performance and stability.

Unique Advantages

• Low leakage characteristic: The 2 µA leakage rating supports circuits sensitive to standby or bias current.
• Defined ripple capability across frequencies: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz (90 mA) and 10 kHz (180 mA) provide predictable AC performance for frequency‑dependent applications.
• Compact radial can: φ8 × 11.5 mm package with 3.5 mm lead spacing is suitable for through‑hole assemblies and compact board layouts.
• Operational resilience: 2000 hours at 85 °C endurance and an operating range of −40 °C to 85 °C support sustained use in elevated temperature conditions.
• Supply flexibility: Available in bulk or bag packing to accommodate prototype and production handling preferences.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance is documented for environmentally conscious designs.

Why Choose UKL2A100MPD?

The UKL2A100MPD positions itself as a compact, low‑leakage aluminum electrolytic solution for audio and related electronics that require a 10 µF, 100 V polarized capacitor with defined ripple performance and endurance at elevated temperatures. Its radial lead form factor and standard lead spacing make it straightforward to integrate into through‑hole assemblies and legacy layouts.

Because this part is designated End Of Life, it is particularly suited for maintenance, repair, or legacy system support where an exact form‑fit replacement is required. For new designs, confirm availability or consider evaluating current alternatives as appropriate.
