UPM1E272MHD6

The UPM1E272MHD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPM series designed for low impedance and long-term reliability. It provides 2700 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating in a compact φ18 × 25 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing, targeting power filtering and decoupling roles in demanding electronics.

Key electrical characteristics include low impedance (25 mΩ), high ripple-current capability (2.574 A at 120 Hz, 2.11 A at 200 kHz), and a wide operating temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C with a 5000-hour endurance at 105 °C. The part is AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant and is available in mass production quantities.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF (2700 µF) rated at 25 V with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and smoothing.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 25 mΩ, enabling effective high-current decoupling and low-loss performance.
• High Ripple‑Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 2.574 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 2.11 A (200 kHz) for handling pulsating loads.
• Thermal and Endurance Performance — Operates from −55 °C to +105 °C with load-life endurance of 5000 hours at 105 °C.
• Electrical Losses — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.16 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, for predictable ESR-related heating behavior.
• Mechanical & Packaging — Radial lead can, size φ18 × 25 mm, lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm); supplied bulk/no terminal forming or bag packing for flexible assembly.
• Reliability & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting regulated and reliability-focused designs.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Smoothing and bulk energy storage on DC power rails where high ripple current and low impedance are required.
• Motor Drive & Power Conversion — Bulk decoupling for inverters and DC–DC converters handling pulsed currents and thermal stress.
• Automotive Electronics — Use in automotive-grade control modules and power subsystems where AEC‑Q200 qualification and extended temperature range are necessary.
• Industrial Control — Energy buffering and noise suppression in industrial controllers and drives operating across wide temperature ranges.

Unique Advantages
