UPJ1E272MHD6

The UPJ1E272MHD6 is a Nichicon UPJ series miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, rated 2.7 mF (2700 µF) at 25 V. It combines low impedance characteristics with a compact φ18 × 25 mm package and is designed for general-purpose electronic power applications.

Targeted use cases include switching power supplies and general-purpose power filtering where high ripple capability, wide operating temperature range, and extended endurance at elevated temperature are required.

Key Features

• Core Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) rated at 25 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), providing bulk energy storage for DC power rails.
• Low Loss / Low Impedance — tanδ (dissipation factor) 0.16 at 20°C, 120 Hz (25 V), supporting efficient power smoothing in switching environments.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 1.854 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 2.06 A at 200 kHz, suitable for demanding ripple conditions in power supplies.
• Long Endurance — Designed to withstand 5000 hours of loaded operation at +105°C, supporting reliability in sustained high-temperature use.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55°C to +105°C to cover a broad range of environmental conditions.
• Radial Lead Package — φ18 × 25 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance) for through-hole assemblies; available in bulk or bag packing.
• Polarized, RoHS Compliant — Polarized aluminum electrolytic design and RoHS-compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and high ripple-current ratings make this capacitor suitable for output smoothing and energy buffering in SMPS designs.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering — Bulk capacitance and tolerance characteristics support decoupling and bulk storage on 25 V power rails.
• Industrial and Embedded Power Rails — Extended endurance at 105°C and a −55°C start temperature suit sustained operation in industrial-grade and embedded systems.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple-handling capability: Rated ripple currents of 1.854 A (120 Hz) and 2.06 A (200 kHz) reduce voltage ripple on power rails and improve regulator stability.
• Extended high-temperature life: 5000 hours at +105°C provides predictable aging behavior and design longevity under heavy load.
• Low dissipation factor: tanδ 0.16 at standard test conditions lowers power loss and heat generation in high-frequency switching environments.
• Compact radial-can form factor: φ18 × 25 mm package with 7.5 mm lead spacing delivers high capacitance in a small footprint for through-hole assemblies.
• Production-ready availability: Listed as mass production and offered in bulk/bag packing for volume assembly needs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant construction simplifies regulatory considerations for modern product designs.
