The UPM1E221MPD6 is a Nichicon UPM series aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 220 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating in a radial lead, can-style package. It is designed for applications that require low impedance, long life under elevated temperatures, and industry-grade reliability.

Targeted at automotive electronic systems and other demanding environments, this capacitor provides a combination of high ripple-current capability, AEC-Q200 qualification, and RoHS compliance, with an operational temperature range from −55 °C to +105 °C and a 5000-hour load life at 105 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 220 µF nominal capacitance rated at 25 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Low Impedance: Rated impedance of 130 mΩ supports stable filtering and decoupling in power circuits.
• Loss Tangent (tan δ): Specified tan δ of 0.14 (max), providing controlled dissipation characteristics for reliable operation.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 165 µA, supporting predictable bias behavior after voltage application.
• Endurance & Temperature Range: 5000 hours life at +105 °C and specified operating range from −55 °C to +105 °C for long-term thermal reliability.
• Ripple Current Capability: 271.6 mA at 120 Hz and 485 mA at 200 kHz to handle both low- and high-frequency ripple components.
• Package & Mounting: Radial lead, can package in a φ10 × 12.5L case with 5 mm lead spacing for through-hole mounting and straightforward PCB assembly.
• Industry Compliance: AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, suitable for regulated and automotive program requirements.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics: Bulk smoothing and decoupling in vehicle power supplies that require AEC-Q200 qualification and extended high-temperature life.
• ECUs and control modules: Energy reservoir and ripple suppression for control electronics operating across −55 °C to +105 °C.
• Infotainment and body electronics: Filtering and stabilization in in-vehicle systems where low impedance and defined ripple capability are needed.
• Industrial embedded systems: Power rail conditioning for embedded modules that demand long-term operation at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• Long high-temperature life: 5000-hour endurance at +105 °C delivers extended service life in thermally stressed environments.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides a documented reliability baseline for automotive program use.
• Low impedance for stable power delivery: 130 mΩ impedance helps minimize voltage ripple and improve transient response in power systems.
• Compact radial can with easy mounting: φ10 × 12.5L radial package and 5 mm lead spacing simplify through-hole integration and mechanical retention.
• High ripple tolerance: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 200 kHz accommodate mixed-frequency switching environments.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in regulated supply chains and product lines.
