UPJ0J182MPD

The UPJ0J182MPD is a radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPJ series designed for low‑impedance power applications. It delivers 1800 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating in a compact φ10 × 30.5 mm can, targeting switching power supplies and general‑purpose power filtering where high ripple handling and long life at elevated temperature are required.

With a rated temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C and a load life specified to 5000 hours at 105 °C for the applicable case size, this part balances compact footprint, reliable endurance, and measurable ripple performance for embedded and industrial power designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1800 µF (1.8 mF) nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 6.3 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Low Impedance Characteristics — Specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.22 at 6.3 V (20 °C, 120 Hz), supporting low loss operation for power supply filtering.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated low‑frequency ripple current of 1.107 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current of 1.23 A at 200 kHz, enabling effective suppression of AC ripple in switching regulators.
• Long Endurance — Endurance rated to 5000 hours at 105 °C (for the applicable case sizes), providing predictable life in elevated‑temperature power environments.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified operation from −55 °C to +105 °C for broad environmental suitability.
• Radial Through‑Hole Package — φ10 mm can with 30.5 mm length, radial lead mounting, 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for standard through‑hole assembly and robust mechanical retention.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 340.2 µA, supporting designs where measurable quiescent leakage must be budgeted.
• Regulatory Compliance & Availability — RoHS‑compliant construction and listed as mass production with bulk or bag packing options for volume assembly.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Output and bulk filtering where the UPJ0J182MPD’s low impedance and rated ripple currents reduce output ripple and support regulator stability.
• DC‑DC Converters — Local decoupling and energy storage for converters in embedded systems and industrial modules requiring high ripple handling.
• General Purpose Power Filtering — Smoothing and reservoir applications in PCB power rails that need compact capacitance and predictable endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple Capability: Measured ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 200 kHz (1.107 A and 1.23 A) mean the capacitor can handle both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple found in switching supplies.
• Long‑Term Thermal Endurance: 5000 hours rated life at 105 °C supports designs that operate continuously at high ambient or internal temperatures.
• Compact Through‑Hole Footprint: φ10 × 30.5 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing provides significant capacitance in a small radial package suitable for tight board layouts.
• Predictable Electrical Loss: Specified tan δ (0.22 at 6.3 V, 120 Hz) gives a clear basis for loss and thermal budgeting in power designs.
• RoHS Compliant & Production Ready: Compliant to RoHS and available in bulk/bag packing with mass production status for production scaling.
• Controlled Leakage: Known leakage current (340.2 µA) allows accurate standby current and hold‑up time calculations in power management designs.
