UPJ0J182MHD6

The UPJ0J182MHD6 is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPJ series, configured as a radial lead can. It delivers 1.8 mF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating with a compact φ16 × 15 mm case, designed for space-conscious power designs.

Engineered for low impedance and long life, the device is well suited for switching power supplies and general-purpose power filtering where sustained ripple handling, wide temperature range, and long endurance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Tolerance — 1.8 mF (1800 µF) with ±20% tolerance at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• Rated Voltage — 6.3 V nominal working voltage.
• Low Impedance/Dissipation — tanδ (DF) 0.22 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting low-impedance filtering in power rails.
• Ripple Current Capability — 1.026 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.14 A at 200 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective smoothing under continuous ripple conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified at 340.2 µA (measured after application of rated voltage conditions).
• Temperature and Endurance — Operating range −55°C to +105°C with a rated load life of 5000 hours at 105°C.
• Mechanical Package — Radial lead can, size φ16 × 15L, lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm), lead diameter 0.8 mm.
• Packaging & Compliance — Available in bulk/bag packing; RoHS compliant and in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and rated ripple current make this capacitor suitable for output smoothing and bulk storage in switching regulators.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering — Use for decoupling and smoothing in power rails where 1.8 mF capacitance and ±20% tolerance meet design needs.
• Wide-Temperature Electronics — With an operating range of −55°C to +105°C and 5000 h endurance at 105°C, it supports applications exposed to broad temperature variations.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple Handling: Rated for up to 1.14 A at high frequency, enabling reliable smoothing under continuous ripple conditions.
• Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 5000 hours at 105°C provides durability for sustained high-temperature operation.
• Compact, Radial Form Factor: φ16 × 15 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing delivers a small footprint for dense board layouts.
• Measurable Low Loss: Specified tanδ of 0.22 at 120 Hz (20°C) gives designers a quantifiable dissipation factor for thermal and stability calculations.
• RoHS Compliant & Production Ready: Conforms to RoHS and is available in mass production with bulk/bag packaging for volume assembly.
