Overview of UPM1H680MPD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 68 µF, 50 V
The UPM1H680MPD is a radial‑lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for reliable power filtering and decoupling in demanding environments. It combines a 68 µF capacitance with a 50 V rating in a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm can with radial leads and 3.5 mm lead spacing.
Engineered for high reliability, this part offers low impedance, defined ripple handling, AEC‑Q200 rating, and a wide operating temperature range, making it suitable for automotive and other high‑duty applications that require long life and stable performance at elevated temperatures.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage: 68 µF capacitance rated at 50 V for energy storage, smoothing and decoupling in DC systems.
- Low Loss & Low Impedance: Specified tan δ = 0.1 and impedance of 200 mΩ, supporting efficient AC ripple attenuation and stable performance.
- Leakage Current: Defined leakage current of 102 µA, enabling predictable DC behavior after voltage application.
- Ripple Current Capability: 132.6 mA at 120 Hz and 260 mA at 200 kHz, suitable for handling both low‑ and high‑frequency ripple components.
- High‑Temperature Endurance: Rated life of 3000 hours at 105 °C, delivering longevity under elevated operating temperatures.
- Automotive Qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating, indicating suitability for automotive electronic applications where this qualification is specified.
- Robust Mechanical Package: Radial lead, can package with φ8 mm diameter, 11.5 mm length, 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and bulk/bag packing options for PCB-level insertion.
- Wide Temperature Range & Compliance: Operating range –55 °C to +105 °C and RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics: Use for smoothing, decoupling and local energy storage where the 50 V rating, 68 µF capacitance and AEC‑Q200 qualification are required.
- Electronic control units (ECUs): Provides ripple suppression and stable DC filtering in control modules operating across –55 °C to +105 °C and requiring long life at elevated temperatures.
- In‑vehicle power supplies and subsystems: Supports filtering and transient buffering in systems that demand defined ripple current capability and low impedance.
Unique Advantages
- Compact, high‑voltage solution: 68 µF at 50 V in a φ8 × 11.5 mm can minimizes board area while meeting higher voltage requirements.
- Predictable AC performance: Low tan δ (0.1) and specified impedance support consistent ripple attenuation across expected operating conditions.
- Designed for elevated‑temperature service: 3000 hours life at 105 °C gives designers a clear endurance metric for thermal reliability planning.
- Automotive‑grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating backs use in regulated automotive electronics and supports supplier qualification processes.
- Clear electrical limits: Defined leakage current and ripple current specs reduce uncertainty when modeling power budgets and thermal loading.
- Easy PCB integration: Radial lead format with 3.5 mm spacing and bag/bulk packing simplifies assembly for through‑hole applications.
