UKL2A680MPD

The UKL2A680MPD is a radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a rated capacitance of 68 µF and a 100 V voltage rating. It is part of Nichicon’s UKL low‑leakage series and is designed for applications that benefit from low leakage, controlled dissipation factor, and compact can‑style packaging.

Key attributes include a low leakage current, a measured tanδ of 0.08 at 20 °C/120 Hz, support for both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple currents, and an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 85 °C. The capacitor is supplied in bulk or bag packing with radial leads and a 5 mm lead spacing.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 68 µF nominal with a tolerance of −20% to +20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
• Voltage Rating — Rated for 100 V applications, providing higher DC voltage headroom within compact dimensions.
• Low Leakage Performance — Designed as a low leakage current unit; specified leakage current is 13.6 µA under the defined test conditions.
• Controlled Dissipation Factor — tanδ of 0.08 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz) for predictable AC loss characteristics.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple 290 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple 580 mA at 10 kHz, supporting decoupling and filtering across a range of frequencies.
• Endurance — Rated life of 2000 hours at 85 °C with the rated voltage applied, suitable for sustained thermal environments up to the specified limit.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can‑style package with case size φ10×20 mm and lead spacing of 5.0 mm (±0.5 mm), for through‑hole mounting and straightforward PCB placement.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• Audio — Suitable for audio circuits where stable capacitance, low leakage, and controlled dissipation factor contribute to reliable coupling, decoupling, and power supply filtering.

Unique Advantages

• Low standby loss: The specified leakage current of 13.6 µA reduces quiescent losses in bias and holding circuits.
• Predictable AC performance: A tanδ of 0.08 at 120 Hz gives designers consistent dissipation characteristics for filter and timing networks.
• Broad ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 290 mA (120 Hz) and 580 mA (10 kHz) enable effective suppression of both low‑ and high‑frequency disturbances.
• Compact radial form factor: φ10×20 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing provides a small footprint for through‑hole placements while maintaining adequate capacitance and voltage rating.
• Durability at elevated temperature: 2000‑hour endurance at 85 °C supports use in sustained warm operating environments within the specified range.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS‑compliant materials simplify environmental regulatory considerations.
