UPJ1C222MHD

The UPJ1C222MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's UPJ series, offering 2200 µF capacitance at 16 V. It is a low-impedance, general-purpose electrolytic designed for applications that require bulk energy storage and filtering in through-hole implementations.

Key selling points include a high ripple-current capability, long endurance under elevated temperature, and a compact radial can package suitable for power supply and industrial electronics designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2200 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low Impedance / Ripple Performance — Low-frequency ripple current 1.62 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.80 A (200 kHz), supporting effective smoothing and filtering in power conversion circuits.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Rated for 5000 hours life at 105°C, providing long-term stability under continuous load conditions.
• Operating Temperature Range — -55°C to +105°C for broad environmental tolerance.
• Dissipation Factor (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.18 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), indicating the capacitor’s loss characteristics.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1056 µA after application of rated voltage.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can-style package with φ12.5 × 30.5 mm dimensions (L: 3.05 × D: 1.25 cm), 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), and polarized leads for through-hole mounting.
• Packaging Options & Production — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing; status: mass production. RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Output filtering and bulk energy storage where low impedance and high ripple capability improve regulator stability and transient response.
• Power Management Modules — Bulk smoothing and decoupling for DC–DC converters and power rails in industrial and commercial electronics.
• General-Purpose Electronic Equipment — Through-hole designs requiring robust capacitive storage with long life at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High Ripple Handling: 1.62 A (120 Hz) and 1.80 A (200 kHz) ripple ratings enable reliable operation in both low- and high-frequency power environments.
• Long Endurance at 105°C: 5000-hour rated life at +105°C supports extended operation under thermal stress, reducing maintenance and replacement frequency.
• Compact Radial Can: φ12.5 × 30.5 mm can with standard 5 mm lead spacing simplifies layout for through-hole assemblies while conserving board area.
• Measured Loss Characteristics: tan δ = 0.18 (20°C, 120 Hz) gives a clear, testable parameter for designers concerned with dielectric losses.
• Ready for Production: Mass-production availability with bulk and bag packing options supports volume procurement and assembly workflows.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS-compliant construction addresses common environmental requirements.
