Overview of UPJ1H560MED – Miniature Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 56 µF, 50 V
The UPJ1H560MED is a miniature, polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can designed for general-purpose power applications. It belongs to Nichicon's UPJ series, a low-impedance family tailored for switching power supplies and compact power circuits.
This part combines 56 µF capacitance at 50 V with a compact φ6.3 × 15 mm package, wide operating temperature range and defined ripple-handling characteristics to meet board-level smoothing and filtering requirements in space-constrained designs.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 56 µF nominal with tolerance of -20% to +20% measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
- Rated Voltage — 50 V working voltage suitable for a variety of low-voltage power rails.
- Low Impedance Design — UPJ series low-impedance construction makes this part suitable for switching power supplies and high ripple environments.
- Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 112.2 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 220 mA at 200 kHz for stable performance across frequencies.
- Leakage and Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 84 µA and tanδ (DF) = 0.1 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz to help predict losses in power circuits.
- Temperature & Endurance — Rated for -55°C to +105°C operation with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C.
- Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with lead spacing 2.5 mm (±0.5 mm) and compact dimensions φ6.3 × 15 mm (L: 1.5 cm × D: 0.63 cm).
- Polarized — Designed for polarized applications; observe polarity during assembly.
- Compliance & Packaging — RoHS compliant; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
Typical Applications
- Switching Power Supplies — Smoothing and bulk filtering on secondary rails where low impedance and frequency-range ripple handling are important.
- General Power Filtering — Decoupling and local energy storage on compact power boards and modules.
- Consumer and Industrial Electronics — Board-level power conditioning in space-constrained devices that require a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic.
Unique Advantages
- Compact radial package: φ6.3 × 15 mm can and 2.5 mm lead spacing enable dense PCB placement while retaining robust capacitance.
- Designed for switching environments: Low-impedance UPJ series construction and specified high-frequency ripple current (220 mA at 200 kHz) support switching regulator stability.
- Wide temperature range: Rated from -55°C to +105°C for reliable operation across common industrial and consumer temperature profiles.
- Predictable loss characteristics: Specified tanδ (0.1 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current (84 µA) simplify thermal and leakage budgeting in designs.
- Endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C for applications where elevated-temperature life is a design consideration.
- RoHS compliance and standard packing: Environmentally compliant and available in bulk or bag packing to suit assembly workflows.
