UKZ2A101MHM

The UKZ2A101MHM is a premium-grade aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UKZ "MUSE" acoustic series, engineered for audio applications. It is a polarized, radial-lead can-type capacitor designed specifically for use in high-quality audio equipment where acoustic performance and stability matter.

Key attributes include 100 µF capacitance at 100 V rating, RoHS compliance, and specifications optimized for audio use such as low loss (tan δ) and defined endurance at elevated temperature.

Key Features

• Premium Acoustic Series: Part of Nichicon's "MUSE" UKZ acoustic lineup, intended for first-class audio equipment where sound quality and comfortableness are priorities.
• Electrical Performance: 100 µF capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance; specified leakage and loss characteristics per the UKZ series datasheet (tan δ max. 0.07 at 120 Hz, 20°C for 100 V rating).
• Temperature and Endurance: Operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C with a rated endurance of 1000 hours at 85°C under applied rated voltage; after endurance the capacitor meets specified limits for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current.
• Low-temperature Stability: Series-level impedance ratios specified for low-temperature performance (Z(–25°C)/Z(+20°C) and Z(–40°C)/Z(+20°C) values provided for 100 V parts), supporting consistent behavior in varied environments.
• Package and Mounting: Radial lead, can-style package with 7.5 mm lead spacing for through-hole radial mounting; sleeve marking is printed in gold on black for easy identification.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), suitable for designs requiring restricted substances conformity.

Typical Applications

• High-fidelity audio amplifiers: Used for power supply smoothing, coupling, or decoupling where stable capacitance and low loss contribute to consistent audio performance.
• Pre-amplifier and signal path circuits: Employed where polarized electrolytic bulk capacitance is required for DC blocking or energy storage in audio signal chains.
• Audio power supplies: Suited for reservoir and filter stages in audio-focused power supplies operating up to 100 V.

Unique Advantages

• Acoustic-oriented design: The UKZ "MUSE" series construction targets audio performance, aligning component choice with the needs of first-class audio equipment.
• High-voltage capability: 100 V rated voltage enables use in audio circuits requiring higher DC bias or supply rails while maintaining series-specified loss and leakage characteristics.
• Defined endurance data: 1000 hours at 85°C with rated voltage applied provides clear reliability expectations for thermal and electrical stress conditions.
• Low loss at audio frequencies: Series tan δ specification (0.07 max. at 120 Hz for 100 V) helps minimize dissipation in audio-relevant frequency ranges.
• RoHS compliance: Meets regional restricted-substances requirements for environmentally conscious product designs.

Why Choose UKZ2A101MHM?
