UPH2W560MHD

The UPH2W560MHD from Nichicon is a high‑voltage, miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UPH series. It is a polarized, radial‑lead, can‑style capacitor rated for 450 V and 56 µF, designed for general‑purpose and ballast applications where high ripple handling and long thermal endurance are required.

Key value comes from its combination of high ripple current capability, extended load life at elevated temperature, and compact high‑voltage form factor—providing designers a reliable option for 450 V DC circuits operating up to 105°C.

Key Features

• Voltage Rating: 450 V rated voltage suitable for high‑voltage DC circuits.
• Capacitance and Tolerance: 56 µF with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• High Ripple Current: Rated ripple current of 490 mA at 120 Hz and 735 mA at 10 kHz, supporting demanding AC ripple conditions.
• Extended Load Life: Load life of 2000 hours at 105°C when subjected to DC bias plus rated ripple current, with defined endurance criteria for capacitance, dissipation factor, and leakage.
• Operating Temperature Range: –40°C to +105°C for broad thermal application coverage.
• Package & Mounting: Radial lead, can package with 5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 3.55 × D: 1.25 cm).
• Electrical Stability: Leakage current specified as not more than 0.04CV + 100 µA after 1 minute at 20°C; tan δ max 0.20 at 450 V (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• RoHS Compliant: Compliant with RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Ballast Circuits: Suited specifically for ballast applications where a high‑voltage, ripple‑tolerant capacitor is required.
• High‑Voltage DC Circuits: Use where a 450 V, 56 µF polarized capacitor is needed for DC smoothing or energy storage under DC bias plus ripple.
• General‑Purpose High‑Voltage Modules: Applicable in compact assemblies that require a reliable radial‑lead electrolytic capacitor with defined endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling capability: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to size components confidently for AC ripple conditions.
• Robust thermal endurance: 2000 hours load life at 105°C provides predictable long‑term performance in hot operating environments.
• Compact high‑voltage form factor: Miniature can with radial leads and 5 mm lead spacing simplifies integration into space‑constrained high‑voltage designs.
• Quantified electrical limits: Clear leakage current formula and tan δ limits help characterize behavior during design and verification.
• RoHS compliance: Meets RoHS directive requirements for environmentally regulated applications.
