UPA1V272MHD6

The UPA1V272MHD6 is a radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPA series designed for compact, high‑ripple power applications. It delivers a 2.7 mF capacitance at 35 V in a small can package optimized for switching power supplies and general‑purpose power filtering.

Key value comes from its low impedance and elevated ripple handling in a space‑saving radial package, combined with wide operating temperature range and long endurance for reliable performance in demanding power circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 2.7 mF nominal capacitance rated at 35 V with polarization; tolerance −20% to +20%.
• Low Impedance — DC impedance specified at 36 mΩ, supporting lower voltage ripple under load.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 2.422 A at 120 Hz and 2.85 A at 10 kHz for robust AC loading capability.
• Miniature Radial Can — Compact dimensions (L: 2.5 × D: 1.8 cm) with 7.5 mm lead spacing and radial lead mounting for through‑hole assemblies.
• Wide Temperature & Long Life — Operating range −55°C to +105°C and specified lifetime of 5000 hours at 105°C.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements.
• Series Proven — Part of the UPA family, which notes lower impedance than UPW and design emphasis on high ripple capacity and reduced case size.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and output filtering where low impedance and high ripple capability reduce voltage ripple and improve regulation.
• DC‑DC Converters & Point‑of‑Load Modules — Local energy storage and decoupling in compact power modules that require high ripple tolerance.
• Industrial Power Electronics — Power conditioning in equipment operating across −55°C to +105°C with extended endurance at elevated temperature.
• General‑Purpose Power Filtering — Through‑hole radial mounting for repairable assemblies and legacy PCBs requiring reliable bulk capacitance in a small footprint.

Unique Advantages

• High energy density in a small package: 2.7 mF capacitance packaged in a 2.5 × 1.8 cm can minimizes board space while delivering bulk capacitance.
• Reduced ripple and improved regulation: 36 mΩ impedance together with multi‑kHz ripple current rating lowers AC voltage excursions on DC rails.
• Designed for sustained high‑temperature operation: 5000 hours life at 105°C provides predictable endurance for power‑intensive designs.
• Through‑hole radial form factor: 7.5 mm lead spacing and radial can simplify assembly and replacement in serviceable equipment.
• Regulatory readiness: RoHS compliance supports environmental requirements for commercial and industrial applications.
