Overview of UPJ2A150MED – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Radial Lead, 150 µF, 100 V
The UPJ2A150MED is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a compact can-style package, rated 150 µF at 100 V. It combines low impedance characteristics with a compact φ6.3 × 15 mm construction and is targeted for general-purpose power applications, including switching power supplies where low impedance and stable ripple handling are required.
This component offers a broad operating temperature range from −55 °C to +105 °C and is supplied in bulk/bag packing for flexible handling in prototype and production environments.
Key Features
- Low Impedance for Power Conversion Series-level low-impedance design suited for switching power supplies; provides measurable high-frequency and low-frequency ripple handling.
- Electrical Rating 150 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a rated voltage of 100 V. Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.08 (20 °C, 120 Hz, 100 V).
- Ripple Current Handling Low-frequency ripple current: 32.5 mA at 120 Hz; high-frequency ripple current: 65 mA at 200 kHz—supporting both bulk filtering and higher-frequency decoupling roles.
- Leakage Current Specified leakage current of 45 µA after rated voltage application (measurement basis provided in part data).
- Mechanical and Mounting Radial lead mounting with lead spacing of 2.5 mm (±0.5 mm tolerance). Compact dimensions: diameter 0.63 cm × length 1.5 cm (φ6.3 × 15 mm).
- Temperature and Endurance Operating range −55 °C to +105 °C with a rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C.
- RoHS Compliance and Packaging RoHS-compliant construction; available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing for flexible inventory handling.
Typical Applications
- Switching Power Supplies Low-impedance characteristics and specified ripple currents make this capacitor suitable for output filtering and energy storage in switching regulators.
- General Power Filtering 150 µF at 100 V provides bulk decoupling and smoothing in medium-voltage power rails and discrete power stages.
- Industrial Control Electronics Wide temperature range (−55 °C to +105 °C) and robust endurance support use in industrial power modules and control boards.
Unique Advantages
- Measurable Ripple Performance: Explicit low- and high-frequency ripple current specifications (32.5 mA / 65 mA) enable predictable thermal and electrical design margins.
- High Voltage Capability: 100 V rating provides headroom for higher-voltage rails without series stacking.
- Compact Radial Form Factor: φ6.3 × 15 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing fits space-constrained boards while retaining radial-lead assembly simplicity.
- Wide Temperature Endurance: −55 °C to +105 °C range and 2000-hour endurance at 105 °C support designs exposed to extended thermal stress.
- RoHS-Compliant Supply: Environmentally compliant construction simplifies regulatory tracking and procurement for lead-free product lines.
