UPJ1J102MHD6

The UPJ1J102MHD6 is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPJ series. It is a radial-lead, polarized capacitor designed for general-purpose power applications and is especially suited for switching power supplies.

With a rated capacitance of 1000 µF at 63 V, low loss (tanδ 0.08 at 20°C, 120 Hz), and high ripple-current capability, this part targets designs that require compact energy storage, robust ripple handling, and extended service life up to 5000 hours at 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 1000 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance −20% to +20% for predictable energy storage.
• Rated Voltage — 63 V DC rating suitable for mid-voltage power rails.
• Low Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, helping to minimize dissipation in AC conditions.
• High Ripple-Current Handling — Low-frequency ripple current 1516.9 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1970 mA (200 kHz) to support switching and high-frequency power stages.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1890 µA, defined for initial performance assessment.
• Long Endurance — Rated for 5000 hours of load life at 105°C, supporting extended reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with dimensions Ø18 × 35.5 mm (L: 3.55 × D: 1.8 cm) and 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through-hole PCB mounting.
• Environment & Availability — RoHS compliant; packaging options include bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing and the part is in mass production.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk filtering and smoothing on input or output rails where high ripple-current capability and low impedance improve regulation and thermal performance.
• Power Supply Filtering — General-purpose decoupling and energy storage for DC power rails in industrial and embedded systems.
• DC-DC Converters and Power Modules — Energy buffer and ripple attenuation in compact, high-frequency converter designs.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple-current tolerance: Supports 1.5169 A at 120 Hz and 1.97 A at 200 kHz, reducing temperature rise and extending capacitor life in switching environments.
• Long elevated-temperature life: 5000-hour endurance at 105°C provides predictable aging and reliability for sustained operation under thermal stress.
• Low dissipation: tanδ of 0.08 (20°C, 120 Hz) minimizes dielectric loss, improving efficiency in AC and ripple-rich conditions.
• Compact radial-can form factor: Ø18 × 35.5 mm size with standard 7.5 mm lead spacing makes the part easy to integrate into through-hole PCB layouts.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports deployment in regulated product lines and assemblies.
• Production-ready supply: Mass-production status and multiple packing options (bulk or bag) simplify procurement and assembly planning.
