UPM1C102MPD

The UPM1C102MPD is a Nichicon UPM-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor providing 1000 µF at 16 V in a radial-leaded can. Designed for low impedance and long-term reliability, it delivers compact energy storage and smoothing in demanding electronic power systems.

Targeted for automotive and other high-reliability markets, this part combines a wide operating temperature range (−55 °C to +105 °C), AEC-Q200 qualification, and a 5000-hour load life at 105 °C for durable performance under sustained thermal and electrical stress.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 1000 µF (1 mF) rated at 16 V provides bulk energy storage for filtering and decoupling in power rails.
• Low Impedance — Characteristic impedance of 47 mΩ supports lower ripple and improved transient response in power circuits.
• High Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 5000 hours at 105 °C and an operating temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C for prolonged high-temperature operation.
• Ripple Current Capability — Handles 939.4 mA at 120 Hz and 1.22 A at 200 kHz, enabling effective AC ripple handling across low and high frequency domains.
• Physical & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with dimensions φ10 × 30.5 mm and 5.0 mm lead spacing for through-hole mounting and straightforward PCB layout.
• Electrical Quality — Capacitance tolerance ±20% and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.16, with polarization marked for correct installation.
• Leakage & Reliability — Specified leakage current of 480 µA and designed to meet stability requirements after endurance and shelf-life conditions.
• Compliance & Availability — RoHS compliant, AEC-Q200 qualified, available in bulk or bag packing, and in mass production status.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in vehicle power systems and control modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and 105 °C endurance are required.
• DC–DC converters — Output filtering and energy buffering for converters that demand high ripple-current capability and low impedance.
• Motor control and drive electronics — Energy storage and ripple suppression in inverters and motor drives operating over wide temperature ranges.

Unique Advantages

• Long-term thermal endurance: 5000 hours at 105 °C provides predictable lifetime performance for high-temperature deployments.
• Low ESR/impedance: 47 mΩ impedance improves voltage stability and reduces heat generation under ripple loads.
• High ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 200 kHz allow use across a range of switching frequencies without compromising life.
• Automotive-ready qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports selection for automotive designs that require industry-level component qualification.
• Compact radial package: φ10 × 30.5 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing simplifies layout for through-hole assemblies and serviceability.
