UPH2G560MHD

The UPH2G560MHD from Nichicon is a high-voltage, miniature-sized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can. It delivers 56 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating with a compact φ12.5×31.5 mm package and 5 mm lead spacing, intended for general-purpose and ballast applications that require reliable high-voltage filtering in a small footprint.

Designed as a high-reliability type, this capacitor combines elevated ripple-current capability and extended load life for demanding thermal environments up to 105°C.

Key Features

• Electrical Rating — 56 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 400 V with polarization suitable for DC applications.
• Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.15 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, helping to minimize dissipation in filter and smoothing roles.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 470 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 705 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective handling of AC ripple across a range of frequencies.
• Leakage Current Specified — Leakage current specified at 996 µA, measured after 1 minute at 20°C and rated voltage.
• High Temperature Endurance — Load life/endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C with specified capacitance, tanδ, and leakage current retention criteria.
• Mechanical Package — Radial lead can with dimensions φ12.5×31.5 mm, lead spacing 5 mm (±0.5 mm), and available in bulk or bag packing for through-hole assembly.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Ballast Applications — Specifically suited for ballast circuits where high-voltage, compact filtering is required.
• General-Purpose Power Circuits — Use in general-purpose DC filtering and smoothing where a 400 V rated, polarized capacitor is appropriate.
• Compact High-Voltage Designs — Applications that require a miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor with elevated ripple handling and long-term stability at up to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Compact high-voltage capability — 400 V rating in a φ12.5×31.5 mm can provides high-voltage performance in a small through-hole package, saving board area.
• High ripple handling across frequencies — Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz (470 mA and 705 mA) support both low- and high-frequency filtering requirements.
• Designed for elevated-temperature reliability — 2000-hour endurance at 105°C supports reliable operation in thermally challenging environments.
• Predictable electrical behavior — Defined tanδ (0.15 at 20°C/120 Hz) and leakage current (996 µA) make it straightforward to incorporate into power designs with predictable loss and leakage budgets.
• Through-hole mounting convenience — Radial lead format and standard 5 mm lead spacing simplify mechanical assembly and replacement in legacy and industrial boards.
• Regulatory compliance — RoHS-compliant manufacturing supports integration into designs targeting restricted-substance conformity.
