UPA1C562MHD6

The UPA1C562MHD6 is a radial‑lead, miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPA series, offering 5600 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It is designed as a low‑impedance, high‑reliability capacitor suited to applications that require substantial bulk capacitance in a compact can.

Targeted use cases include switching power supplies and other general‑purpose electronic circuits where high ripple current capability, long endurance at elevated temperature, and a compact footprint are important design drivers.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5600 µF nominal capacitance rated at 16 V with tolerance of -20% to +20%.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 36 mΩ supports low‑loss energy storage and decoupling in power stages.
• High Ripple Current — Low‑frequency ripple current 2422.5 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 2850 mA (10 kHz) to handle dynamic load currents.
• Dielectric Loss — tanδ = 0.24 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling predictable AC loss behavior for thermal and ripple budgeting.
• High Endurance — Rated for 5000 hours endurance at 105°C, supporting longer service life under elevated operating temperature.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified for -55°C to +105°C operation.
• Compact Radial Can — Size φ18 × 25L (18 mm diameter × 25 mm length) with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); radial‑lead mounting and bulk/bag packing for production use.
• Polarized, RoHS‑Compliant — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction and RoHS compliance as listed.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk and smoothing capacitance for switch‑mode power supplies, leveraging the UPA series’ low impedance and high ripple current capability.
• General‑Purpose Electronic Circuits — Provides large bulk capacitance for board‑level energy storage and decoupling in general electronic assemblies.
• Power Modules and Converters — Radial‑lead package and high ripple handling make it suitable for power modules and discrete converter designs where through‑hole mounting is used.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacity in a Small Can — 5600 µF in a φ18 × 25 mm case delivers substantial bulk capacitance while minimizing board area.
• Predictable Thermal and AC Performance — Specified tanδ and measured ripple current values allow engineers to model heating and lifetime under real‑world ripple loading.
• Designed for Elevated Temperature Endurance — 5000 hours at 105°C provides long‑term stability in demanding thermal environments.
• Production‑Ready Packaging — Available in bulk or bag packing and listed as mass production status to support volume assembly processes.
• Series‑Level Low Impedance — Part of the UPA series, noted for lower impedance relative to earlier series, helping reduce voltage ripple and output impedance in power designs.
