UPM1C561MPD

The UPM1C561MPD from Nichicon is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UPM series, engineered for low impedance and high reliability. It delivers 560 µF at 16 V in a compact φ10 × 20 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing, making it suitable for power filtering and bulk decoupling on 16 V rails.

Designed for demanding environments, the part offers a wide operating temperature range (−55 °C to +105 °C) and long endurance (5,000 hours at 105 °C), and is AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for applications requiring documented reliability.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 560 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for bulk energy storage and smoothing on 16 V supply lines.
• Low Impedance Performance: Specified impedance of 75 mΩ supports effective high-current ripple smoothing and low-voltage drop in power rails.
• Ripple Handling: Rated ripple current of 503.8 mA at 120 Hz and 775 mA at 200 kHz enables performance across low- and high-frequency switching environments.
• Leakage and Dissipation: Leakage current specified at 268.8 µA and dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.16 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for predictable loss characteristics.
• High Endurance: 5,000 hours life at 105 °C (per series endurance specification) for sustained operation in elevated-temperature conditions.
• Mechanical and Packaging: Polarized radial-lead can, size φ10 × 20 mm, lead spacing 5.0 mm (±0.5 mm), available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for production handling.
• Compliance and Qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting designs with formal component-level reliability requirements.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics: Power filtering and bulk decoupling for 12 V/16 V control modules and subsystems where AEC‑Q200 qualification is required.
• DC–DC Converters and Power Supplies: Input/output smoothing and ripple suppression for switching regulators, benefiting from specified ripple current at both low and high frequencies.
• Industrial Control: Energy storage and transient absorption in motor drivers and control boards operating across −55 °C to +105 °C.
• Embedded Systems: Local bulk capacitance for microcontroller and peripheral power rails to maintain stable voltage during transient loads.

Unique Advantages

• Proven Endurance: 5,000 hours at 105 °C offers longevity in high-temperature applications, reducing maintenance and replacement frequency.
• Measured Low Impedance: 75 mΩ impedance provides lower voltage ripple and improved power integrity in compact layouts.
• Wide Temperature Range: −55 °C to +105 °C rating enables deployment across harsh and variable environments without derating design assumptions.
• Dual-Frequency Ripple Capability: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 200 kHz make the part suitable for both linear and switching power topologies.
• Manufacturing-Friendly Packaging: Available in bulk or bag packing to support both automated assembly flows and small-batch prototyping.
• Recognized Qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance provide traceable reliability credentials for regulated designs.
