UPM1A682MHD6

The UPM1A682MHD6 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPM series, presented in a radial-lead can for through-hole mounting. It delivers high capacitance (6.8 mF) at a 10 V rating with low impedance and dedicated ripple-current handling for demanding low-voltage designs.

Designed for automotive and high-reliability applications, this part carries AEC-Q200 qualification, RoHS compliance and a 5000-hour endurance rating at 105°C, offering long-term stability across a wide temperature range of -55°C to 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 6.8 mF (6800 µF) at 10 V with a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 22 mΩ, supporting lower voltage ripple and improved transient response in low-voltage circuits.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 5.685 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 2.44 A at 200 kHz to address both bulk and high-frequency filtering demands.
• Long Endurance — Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C, providing predictable aging characteristics for long-life designs.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified for operation from -55°C to 105°C for use in thermally challenging environments.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead can with dimensions φ18 × 30.5 mm and lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm); available in bulk or bag packing.
• Electrical Loss & Leakage — Specified tan δ of 0.29 (measurement condition 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current of 2040 µA.
• Compliance & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant; manufactured by Nichicon and available in mass production.
• Polarized — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for DC applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic systems — AEC-Q200 qualification, wide temperature rating and 5000-hour endurance make this capacitor suitable for low-voltage automotive power rails and control electronics.
• Power supply smoothing — High capacitance (6800 µF) and low impedance support bulk smoothing and ripple reduction on 10 V DC rails.
• High-ripple DC link and converters — Elevated ripple-current ratings at both low and high frequencies address thermal and ripple dissipation needs in DC–DC converters and power stages.

Unique Advantages

• Long-term high-temperature reliability: 5000 hours at 105°C life rating enables predictable performance in sustained elevated-temperature environments.
• High capacitance in a compact radial can: 6800 µF in a φ18 × 30.5 mm package minimizes board area for high-capacitance requirements.
• Robust ripple handling: 5.685 A at 120 Hz and 2.44 A at 200 kHz reduce stress on the capacitor and help maintain circuit stability under varying ripple conditions.
• Low impedance: 22 mΩ impedance assists in minimizing voltage drop and improving transient response on low-voltage DC rails.
• Industry qualification and compliance: AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance support regulated design requirements and supply assurance.
• Practical mounting and packing: Radial-lead format with 7.5 mm lead spacing and bulk/bag packing options ease handling and assembly for through-hole designs.
