ULV2C150MNL1GS

The ULV2C150MNL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for high-voltage, long-life applications. It provides 15 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact surface-mount can package.

Built for demanding environments, this RoHS-compliant, AEC-Q200 qualified device targets automotive and industrial power electronics where extended endurance, wide operating temperature range, and reliable surface-mount integration are required.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance  15 µF nominal capacitance at 160 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Long-Life Endurance  Rated for 10,000 hours at +105°C; after endurance testing capacitance change stays within ±30% and leakage current remains within the initial specified value.
• Leakage Current Specification  Leakage current is specified as 0.04·C·V + 100 µA maximum (1 minute at 20°C) for the 160 V rating.
• Loss and Low-Temperature Behavior  Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) is specified (max. 0.20 at 160 V, 120 Hz, 20°C) and impedance stability down to −40°C is characterized (Z(−40°C)/Z(+20°C) ≤ 6 for 160 V).
• Ripple Current  Specified ripple currents: 50 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 80 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling use in filtered and switching environments.
• Package & Mounting  Chip-type radial can in an SMD package, surface-mountable and compatible with automatic mounting using carrier tape; recommended land pattern 8.3 × 8.3 mm.
• Environmental & Quality  RoHS-compliant and AEC-Q200 qualified for automotive-grade reliability and regulatory compliance.
• Operating Range  Specified for operation from −40°C to +105°C to meet elevated-temperature system requirements.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Electronics  Designed for on-board power filtering and decoupling where long life at elevated temperatures and AEC-Q200 qualification are required.
• DC–DC Converters  Provides bulk and smoothing capacitance at 160 V systems, supporting both low-frequency and high-frequency ripple environments.
• Industrial Control Modules  Compact surface-mount can enables space-efficient power stages and filtering in industrial electronics subject to wide temperature ranges.

Unique Advantages

• High-Voltage Chip Format: Compact 160 V chip-type can delivers needed capacitance where space and voltage capability are constrained.
• Long Operational Life: 10,000-hour endurance at 105°C reduces maintenance and replacement needs in high-temperature applications.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification supports use in safety- and reliability-focused vehicle systems.
• Measured Ripple Capability: Specified ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow confident selection for filtering in switching and line-frequency designs.
• Surface-Mount Assembly Ready: Carrier-tape compatible chip type and defined land pattern simplify automated PCB assembly and integration.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance ensures conformity to common environmental regulations.
