UPJ0J222MPD

The UPJ0J222MPD from Nichicon is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UPJ series. It is a polarized radial-lead device with a capacitance of 2200 µF and a rated voltage of 6.3 V.

Designed for general-purpose use and noted in the series documentation as suited for switching power supplies, this part combines high ripple-current capability, extended load life, and a compact radial-can footprint for power-filtering and bulk energy-storage applications.

Key Features

• Electrical Characteristics — 2.2 mF (2200 µF) capacitance with tolerance −20% to +20% at 120 Hz, rated at 6.3 V; polarized device for DC power applications.
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ) — tanδ 0.24 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, 6.3 V, providing a quantified loss metric for design validation.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 1.188 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.32 A (200 kHz), enabling effective smoothing under both low- and high-frequency stress.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current 415.8 µA to support predictable standby and bias behavior in circuits.
• Long Life & Thermal Range — Endurance specified at 5000 hours at 105°C; operating temperature range −55°C to +105°C for demanding thermal environments.
• Compact Radial Package — Cylindrical can with diameter 10 mm and length 30.5 mm (φ10 × 30.5 L), radial lead mounting and 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance) for through-hole PCB assemblies.
• Packaging & Availability — Supplied in bulk/no terminal forming or bag packing; product status: mass production.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant as stated in product data.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and output filtering where high ripple capability and long life at elevated temperature are required.
• Power Filtering for Embedded Systems — Energy storage and decoupling in general-purpose electronic equipment using radial through-hole mounting.
• Industrial and Consumer Electronics — General-purpose DC filtering and standby/bias supply decoupling across a wide operating temperature range.

Unique Advantages

• Extended High‑Temperature Endurance: 5000 hours at 105°C provides designers a verified lifecycle metric for thermal-stressed applications.
• Measured Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 200 kHz give clear guidance for low- and high-frequency filtering designs.
• Verified Loss Characteristic: tanδ = 0.24 at standard measurement conditions (20°C, 120 Hz) enables predictable AC loss planning.
• Compact Radial Form Factor: φ10 × 30.5 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing supports dense through-hole layouts while maintaining required capacitance.
• RoHS Compliance and Production Availability: Environmentally compliant and listed as mass production, simplifying procurement and lifecycle management.
