UKT1C100MDD

The UKT1C100MDD is a radial-leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for audio equipment and related electronics. It delivers a compact, polarized energy-storage solution with a 10 µF capacitance at 16 V rated voltage and a wide operating temperature range from -55°C to 105°C.

Designed for reliability under elevated temperatures, this part meets AEC-Q200 qualification and offers a 1000-hour life at 105°C, making it suitable for designs that require stable electrical performance in demanding thermal environments.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 10 µF capacitance with ±20% tolerance and 16 V rated voltage; low leakage current specified at 4.8 µA.
• Ripple Current — Rated ripple handling of 35 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 70 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency) to support dynamic audio power demands.
• Thermal and Endurance — Operates across -55°C to 105°C and is rated for 1000 hours at 105°C, with endurance criteria for capacitance, tan δ and leakage current after life testing.
• Loss Characteristic — Maximum tan δ of 0.22 at 16 V (measurement at 120 Hz, 20°C), providing a quantified dissipation factor for circuit design.
• Package and Mounting — Compact radial, can-style package (φ5 × 11 mm L) with 2 mm lead spacing, suited for through-hole mounting and space-constrained boards.
• Qualification and Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified per product specifications and compliant with the RoHS directive as indicated for the UKT series.

Typical Applications

• Audio Equipment — Intended for general audio equipment; suitable where stable capacitance and low leakage are required across a wide temperature range.
• Power Supply Filtering — Compact radial can and defined ripple current ratings support local decoupling and smoothing in audio power rails.
• Signal Coupling/Decoupling — Polarized aluminum electrolytic topology appropriate for DC blocking and coupling stages in audio circuitry.

Unique Advantages

• Wide temperature operation: Rated from -55°C to 105°C, enabling use in environments with large thermal swings.
• Long high-temperature life: 1000 hours at 105°C provides predictable aging characteristics for lifecycle planning.
• Defined ripple performance: Published ripple current values at both low (120 Hz) and high (10 kHz) frequencies help size the capacitor for real-world audio power demands.
• Low leakage: 4.8 µA leakage current supports circuits that require minimal DC loss and long discharge intervals.
• Industry qualification: AEC-Q200 listing and RoHS compliance (per UKT series information) support use in regulated manufacturing environments.
• Compact radial form factor: φ5 × 11 mm can with 2 mm lead spacing simplifies through-hole assembly in compact audio modules and PCBs.
