Overview of UPJ1K271MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 270 µF, 80 V, Radial Lead
The UPJ1K271MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UPJ series designed for general-purpose power applications. It pairs a 270 µF capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage in a compact φ12.5×30.5 mm can suitable for through-hole assemblies.
Engineered for low impedance and extended load life, this part is well suited for switching power supplies and power-conversion circuits where reliable smoothing, decoupling and bulk energy storage are required across a wide temperature range.
Key Features
- Capacitance and Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and an 80 V rated voltage for mid‑to‑high voltage power applications.
- Low Impedance — Series design optimized for low impedance behavior, supporting effective ripple handling in switching power supplies.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated low-frequency ripple current 380.19 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 667 mA at 200 kHz for reliable operation under AC ripple stress.
- Leakage — Specified leakage current of 648 µA after rated voltage application for predictable bias behavior.
- High Temperature Endurance — Load life rated at 5000 hours at +105 °C, offering long-term stability in elevated-temperature environments.
- Mechanical and Mounting — Radial lead, polarized aluminum can with dimensions φ12.5×30.5 mm, 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and lead diameter 0.8 mm (for L > 25 mm), simplifying through‑hole assembly.
- Temperature Range — Operating from −55 °C to +105 °C to cover a wide range of environmental conditions.
- Regulatory — RoHS compliant.
- Packaging and Availability — Available in bulk or bag packing; status: mass production.
Typical Applications
- Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and high ripple-current capability make it suitable for output smoothing and decoupling in switch‑mode power supplies.
- DC‑DC Converters and Power Modules — Provides bulk energy storage and stabilizes rail voltages in mid‑voltage converter stages.
- Industrial Power Electronics — Long load life at +105 °C supports continuous operation in industrial power supplies and control equipment.
- General Purpose Filtering — Useful for bulk filtering and transient suppression in a variety of through‑hole power designs.
Unique Advantages
- Extended Load Life: 5000 hours at +105 °C gives designers confidence in long-term performance under continuous load.
- Predictable Ripple Handling: Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 200 kHz allow straightforward thermal and lifetime calculations for power systems.
- Wide Temperature Range: −55 °C to +105 °C operation supports deployment across diverse environments without changing capacitor selection.
- Compact Through‑Hole Form Factor: φ12.5×30.5 mm radial can with 5 mm lead spacing balances board space and capacitance for through‑hole assemblies.
- RoHS Compliant: Meets common environmental requirements for electronic assemblies.
