UPM0J103MHD

The UPM0J103MHD is a high-capacitance aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPM series. It is a radial-lead, polarized can-type capacitor specified at 10,000 µF and 6.3 V, designed for applications that require large energy storage and robust ripple handling.

Targeted use cases include power supply smoothing, bulk energy buffering and decoupling in industrial and automotive electronics. Key value propositions are long endurance at elevated temperature, low impedance, and proven series-level reliability characteristics.

Key Features

• Large Capacitance — 10,000 µF (10 mF) provides substantial energy storage for bulk filtering and transient support.
• Rated Voltage — 6.3 V rated voltage suitable for low-voltage power rails and energy-storage sections.
• Low Impedance — 20 mΩ impedance helps minimize voltage ripple and improves hold-up on power rails.
• High Ripple Current Capability — 8.9001 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.79 A at 200 kHz (high frequency) for sustained ripple performance across a range of switching frequencies.
• Endurance — 5,000 h rated life at +105°C for long-term reliability under elevated-temperature load conditions.
• Operating Temperature Range — −55°C to +105°C to support wide environmental conditions.
• Form Factor & Mounting — Radial lead, can package with φ16 × 40 mm dimensions and 7.5 mm lead spacing for through-hole PCB designs.
• Electrical Quality — Capacitance tolerance ±20% and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.4 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for this part.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current 1890 µA for predictable standby behavior.
• Compliance & Qualification — RoHS compliant and AEC‑Q200 qualified, reflecting series-level suitability for demanding applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Systems — Bulk energy buffering and smoothing on low-voltage rails where high capacitance and AEC‑Q200 series qualification are required.
• DC Power Supplies — Output filtering and hold-up capacitors for low-voltage regulators and converters benefiting from high ripple current capability and low impedance.
• Industrial Control Electronics — Energy storage and decoupling in motor drives, PLCs and other industrial boards operating across −55°C to +105°C.
• High-Current Switching Applications — Supports switching regulators and converters that impose both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple currents.

Unique Advantages

• High Stored Energy per Volume: 10,000 µF in a φ16 × 40 mm can provides substantial capacitance in a compact through-hole form.
• Low-Impedance Performance: 20 mΩ impedance reduces ripple and improves transient response when paired with switching power stages.
• Robust Thermal Endurance: 5,000 hours at +105°C enables extended reliable operation in high-temperature environments.
• Wide Ripple Capability: Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 200 kHz supports use across legacy linear supplies and modern switching converters.
• Automotive-Grade Series Qualification: AEC‑Q200 series qualification and RoHS compliance support integration into regulated electronic systems.
• Through-Hole Convenience: Radial lead form and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify prototyping and replacement in field-serviceable designs.
