UKW1E102MPD

The UKW1E102MPD is a Nichicon UKW series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, specified at 1000 µF and 25 V. It is engineered for audio and AV equipment applications where high capacitance, controlled dissipation factor, and reliable ripple handling are required.

Built around Nichicon’s UKW series formulation, the part offers a balance of audio-focused performance and endurance, with a compact φ10 × 20 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing for through-hole assemblies.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1000 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 25 V, with a tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Loss for Audio — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.16 (25 V, 120 Hz, 20°C), supporting low-loss performance important in audio circuits.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current rated 950 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple capability of 1.093 A at 10 kHz, enabling effective smoothing and decoupling across audio bandwidths.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 750 µA, suitable for power supply and coupling applications where controlled leakage is required.
• Endurance — Designed for 2000 hours of operation at 85°C under rated voltage, meeting durability needs for long-term AV equipment operation.
• Mechanical & Packaging — Radial lead mounting in a φ10 × 20 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm). Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for assembly flexibility.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Audio equipment — Bulk energy storage and smoothing in preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and other audio signal chains where capacitance and low loss matter.
• AV systems — Power supply filtering and decoupling in consumer AV components where compact radial capacitors are preferred.
• Power smoothing — Local bulk decoupling on low-voltage rails that support audio and signal-processing modules.

Unique Advantages

• Audio-oriented electrolyte formulation — Part of the UKW series developed to realize a balanced sound signature, delivering capacitor characteristics tuned for AV use.
• High capacitance in a compact can — 1000 µF in a φ10 × 20 mm package minimizes board area while providing substantial energy storage.
• Balanced ripple performance — Specified ripple current values at both low and high frequencies provide predictable thermal and electrical behavior across audio-relevant frequencies.
• Proven endurance — 2000-hour rated life at 85°C under rated voltage supports longevity in continuous-use AV equipment.
• Through-hole radial convenience — 5 mm lead spacing and radial-lead form factor simplify prototyping and repair in through-hole assemblies.
