UPJ1C182MHD

The UPJ1C182MHD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, offering 1800 µF capacitance at a 16 V rated voltage. It is part of Nichicon's UPJ series, characterized for low impedance and designed for general-purpose power applications.

With defined ripple-current ratings, a wide operating temperature range and extended load-life endurance, this radial component is intended for use where stable smoothing and filtering under thermal stress are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1.8 mF (1800 µF) rated at 16 V with capacitance tolerance ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Impedance — Specified tangent of loss angle (tanδ) of 0.16 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz, supporting lower AC loss in power applications.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current 1.521 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.69 A (200 kHz), enabling effective ripple handling across frequencies.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 864 µA.
• Thermal Endurance — Rated operating temperature −55°C to +105°C with a 5000-hour load-life endurance at 105°C.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can package, size φ12.5 × 30.5 mm (diameter × length), lead spacing 5 mm with 0.5 mm tolerance; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and smoothing in switch-mode power supplies where low impedance and ripple capability are required.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering — Energy storage and smoothing for DC power rails in consumer and industrial electronics.
• Local Decoupling — Decoupling and transient buffering on power rails to support regulators and power stages.

Unique Advantages

• Low-impedance design — Specified tanδ and series characterization support reduced AC loss and stable performance under load.
• Strong ripple handling across frequencies — Explicit ripple-current ratings at 120 Hz and 200 kHz enable designers to size for both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature — 5000 hours load life at 105°C provides predictable longevity for thermally demanding applications.
• Wide operating temperature range — −55°C to +105°C supports deployment across varied ambient environments.
• Compact radial-can footprint — φ12.5 × 30.5 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing fits through-hole assemblies while delivering 1800 µF capacitance.
• Regulatory readiness — RoHS compliance eases integration into regulated product lines.
