Overview of UPJ1J180MED – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Radial Lead, 180 µF, 63 V
The UPJ1J180MED is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can package providing 180 µF nominal capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage. It is polarized and designed for general purpose power‑filtering and energy‑storage roles in electronic assemblies.
As a member of the UPJ series, the part benefits from the series' low‑impedance design characteristics suited for switching power supplies, while offering a compact φ6.3 × 11 mm footprint and a wide operating temperature range from −55°C to +105°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 180 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable bulk energy storage and decoupling.
- Rated Voltage & Polarization — 63 V rated voltage; polarized design for correct orientation in DC circuits.
- Low Loss (tan δ) — Specified tan δ of 0.08 at 20°C, 120 Hz and 63 V, indicating controlled dissipation for power‑supply applications.
- Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple handling of 50 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple handling of 100 mA (200 kHz) for both mains‑frequency smoothing and high‑frequency switching noise suppression.
- Leakage Current — Measured leakage current of 34.02 µA for stable idle behavior after voltage application.
- Endurance — Specified life of 2000 hours at rated conditions, enabling sustained operation in elevated temperature environments.
- Temperature & Mechanical — Operating range −55°C to +105°C; compact size φ6.3 × 11 mm with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for tight PCB layouts.
- Packaging & Mounting — Radial lead, bulk/bag packing (no terminal forming) for manual insertion or through‑hole assembly processes.
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- Switching Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and output decoupling in compact switching regulators, leveraging the series' low‑impedance design.
- General Purpose Power Filtering — Line and rail smoothing in consumer and industrial electronics requiring moderate capacitance at 63 V.
- DC/DC Converter Modules — Input/output filter capacitor for converters where compact size and defined ripple current capability are required.
- Embedded and Control Electronics — Energy storage and noise suppression in controller boards and power management circuits operating across −55°C to +105°C.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, high‑capacitance package: 180 µF in a φ6.3 × 11 mm can conserves PCB space while providing substantial bulk capacitance.
- Defined ripple performance: Separate low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings (50 mA / 100 mA) allow designers to assess suitability for both mains and switching noise conditions.
- Measured leakage specification: Explicit leakage current figure (34.02 µA) aids in power‑budgeting and long‑term standby calculations.
- Wide temperature range: −55°C to +105°C operation supports use across challenging thermal environments.
- Through‑hole radial lead format: Easier manual assembly and mechanical robustness for designs that require stand‑off or vibration resistance.
- RoHS compliance: Facilitates use in applications where restricted substance compliance is required.
