UKT0J102MPD

The UKT0J102MPD from Nichicon is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UKT series, specified at 1000 µF with a 6.3 V rating and ±20% tolerance. It combines high capacitance in a compact φ10×12.5 mm can with a 5 mm lead spacing for through-hole mounting.

Engineered for audio applications, this capacitor offers defined ripple current performance across low and high frequencies, low leakage current, and endurance over extended high-temperature operation (1000 hours at 105°C).

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF nominal capacitance at a 6.3 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and smoothing in low-voltage circuits.
• Radial Lead Package — Through-hole radial can (φ10×12.5 mm) with 5 mm lead spacing for straightforward PCB insertion and soldering.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple currents of 420 mA at 120 Hz and 483 mA at 10 kHz to support both low-frequency and higher-frequency ripple handling requirements.
• Low Leakage — Specified leakage current of 189 µA to limit DC loss during long-term biasing in sensitive circuits.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Rated for −55°C to +105°C operation to maintain performance across wide environmental conditions.
• Endurance — Designed to meet endurance specifications after 1000 hours at 105°C, with capacitance and dissipation factor maintained within specified limits.
• AEC-Q200 Rated — Built to an AEC-Q200 passive component rating, reflecting targeted reliability characteristics required by demanding electronic designs.
• Packaging — Supplied bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packed for flexible assembly and handling options.

Typical Applications

• General Audio Equipment — Intended for use in audio equipment where stable capacitance and wide temperature capability are required.
• Audio Power Supply Filtering — Ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 10 kHz make this part suitable for smoothing and filtering on audio power rails.
• Bias and Decoupling in Audio Circuits — Low leakage current supports circuits that require stable bias conditions and decoupling in audio signal paths.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance in a Compact Can — 1000 µF in a φ10×12.5 mm package conserves board area while providing substantial energy storage.
• Defined Low- and High-Frequency Ripple Ratings — Separate ripple current specifications at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to evaluate performance across relevant audio frequencies.
• Wide Temperature Range with Proven Endurance — −55°C to +105°C rating and 1000 h endurance at 105°C support long-term operation in temperature-challenged environments.
• Low Leakage for Stable Biasing — 189 µA leakage current helps maintain DC conditions in sensitive audio circuitry.
• Industry Reliability Standard — AEC-Q200 rating indicates adherence to a recognized passive-component reliability specification.
• Simple Through-Hole Integration — Radial lead design with 5 mm spacing simplifies prototyping and assembly for legacy and mixed-technology boards.
