UPJ2A560MHD6

The UPJ2A560MHD6 is a radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPJ series, engineered for low impedance and reliable operation in power applications. It is optimized for switching power supplies and general-purpose power filtering where stable capacitance, controlled loss tangent and long-term endurance are required.

Key attributes include 56 µF capacitance at 100 V, a compact φ12.5 × 15 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing, a wide operating temperature range of -55 °C to +105 °C, and a rated life of 5000 hours at 105 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 100 V and tolerance of -20% to +20%.
• Low loss / low impedance — Specified tanδ (DF) of 0.08 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, 100 V, supporting efficient energy handling in power circuits.
• High-temperature endurance — Designed to withstand 5000 hours of loaded life at 105 °C, supporting long-term reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
• Ripple current capability — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 131.6 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 258 mA at 200 kHz for filtering and decoupling in switching supplies.
• Leakage current — Specified leakage current of 168 µA for predictable standby behavior after voltage application.
• Compact radial package — Metal can radial lead construction with dimensions φ12.5 × 15 mm and 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), suitable for through-hole PCB mounting.
• Wide operating range — Rated for operation from -55 °C to +105 °C, allowing use across many industrial and electronics environments.
• RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for restriction of hazardous substances.
• Packaging options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to match assembly and stocking preferences.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and specified ripple current make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and decoupling in SMPS front-ends and outputs.
• General Power Filtering — Useful for bulk filtering, hold-up and transient suppression in general-purpose power circuits.
• Industrial Power Equipment — Long-life rating at 105 °C supports use in industrial power modules and control electronics where elevated operating temperatures occur.
• DC-DC Converters — Compact radial can and reliable electrical characteristics support decoupling and energy storage in DC-DC converter stages.

Unique Advantages

• Predictable high-temperature life: 5000 hours at 105 °C provides measurable endurance for thermal-stressed designs.
• Low-loss performance: tanδ of 0.08 at 20 °C, 120 Hz (100 V) reduces dissipation and helps maintain efficiency in power chains.
• Dual-frequency ripple specification: Provided ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz and 200 kHz help designers assess performance across switching and line-frequency conditions.
• Compact, through-hole form factor: φ12.5 × 15 mm radial can with 5 mm lead spacing eases PCB placement and mechanical mounting for discrete designs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in products requiring hazardous substance restrictions.
• Flexible packaging: Bulk and bag packing options simplify procurement and assembly workflows.
