UPM1A822MHD

The UPM1A822MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for low impedance and high reliability applications. It delivers 8.2 mF capacitance at a 10 V rating in a compact φ16 × 40 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing.

Engineered for demanding thermal and ripple conditions, this AEC-Q200 qualified capacitor supports long endurance—5,000 hours at 105°C—making it suitable for automotive electrical systems and other applications that require sustained performance under elevated temperature and ripple stress.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 8.2 mF (8,200 µF) nominal capacitance with a 10 V rated voltage and capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20% at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low Impedance: Specified impedance of 19 mΩ, enabling improved smoothing and transient handling in power circuits.
• High Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 7.533 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.79 A (200 kHz) to support high-stress power environments.
• Long Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 5,000 hours rated life at +105°C under rated DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range: −55°C to +105°C for operation across challenging thermal conditions.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics: Measured leakage current 2,460 µA and tan δ (DF) 0.33 at 20°C, 120 Hz, 10 V for predictable loss and self-heating characteristics.
• Radial Lead Package: φ16×40 mm aluminum can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied in bulk or bag packing for through-hole assembly.
• AEC-Q200 Qualified: Series qualification noted in specifications, supporting use in automotive environments where AEC-Q200 is required.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power systems: Bulk energy storage and smoothing in vehicle electrical systems that require high ripple current handling and extended high-temperature life.
• Automotive high-temperature electronics: Circuits operating up to +105°C where long endurance and stable capacitance over time are required.
• Automotive systems requiring low impedance: Power conditioning and transient suppression where a 19 mΩ impedance assists in maintaining voltage stability under load.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for prolonged high-temperature operation: 5,000 hour endurance at 105°C reduces the need for frequent replacement in thermal-stressed assemblies.
• High ripple handling: Combined low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings support mixed-frequency power profiles commonly encountered in automotive electronics.
• Compact radial-can form factor: φ16×40 mm package with standard 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies placement in through-hole assemblies and legacy footprints.
• Clear electrical characterization: Specified impedance, leakage current, and tan δ values enable predictable thermal and performance design tradeoffs.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Documented series rating supports selection for automotive applications where qualification is required.
