Overview of UPM1C152MHD – Miniature High-Reliability Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UPM1C152MHD is a miniature, radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor engineered for high-reliability power applications. It provides 1500 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ12.5 × 25 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing.
Designed for demanding environments, the part combines low impedance, high ripple-current capability and long life (5000 hours at 105°C). Its AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance make it suitable for use where reliability and regulatory compliance are required.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 1500 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and tolerance of -20% to +20%.
- Low impedance and dissipation — Rated impedance 36 mΩ and tanδ 0.16 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) for efficient energy filtering and decoupling.
- High ripple-current capability — Low-frequency ripple current 1.377 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.53 A (200 kHz) to support switching supplies and power conversion.
- Long endurance — 5000 hours life at 105°C under rated conditions, enabling sustained performance in elevated-temperature systems.
- Wide temperature range — Operational from -55°C to +105°C for use across environments with large temperature swings.
- Radial lead package — Compact φ12.5 × 25 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through-hole mounting and straightforward mechanical assembly.
- Leakage current — Specified leakage current of 720 µA (measurement condition: 20°C, 1 minute after application of rated voltage).
- Compliance & qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant to address regulated and quality-conscious designs.
- Packaging options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing to suit production and prototyping workflows.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics — Smoothing and bulk decoupling in control modules and power supplies where AEC-Q200 qualification and 105°C endurance are required.
- DC-DC converters — Input/output filtering for converters benefiting from the capacitor’s high ripple-current ratings at both low and high frequencies.
- Industrial power systems — Energy storage and ripple suppression in industrial converters and control equipment operating across -55°C to 105°C.
- Backup and hold-up circuitry — Local energy reservoir for short-term hold-up or backup when compact, high-capacitance solutions are needed.
Unique Advantages
- Long-term thermal reliability: Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C, enabling sustained performance in elevated-temperature environments.
- High ripple tolerance: Dual ripple-current specifications (1.377 A at 120 Hz and 1.53 A at 200 kHz) support both mains-frequency and high-frequency switching applications.
- Compact, serviceable form factor: φ12.5 × 25 mm radial-can package with 5 mm lead spacing offers a small footprint while remaining easy to mount and replace.
- Quality assurance: AEC-Q200 qualification provides traceable assurance for designs targeting regulated or high-reliability markets.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in markets requiring restricted-substance conformity.
