UPM1J121MPD

The UPM1J121MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPM series, offering 120 µF capacitance at a 63 V rating. Designed for demanding environments, it provides low impedance and long-life performance for power smoothing and decoupling in electronic systems.

Targeted use cases include automotive and industrial electronic modules where AEC-Q200 qualification, extended temperature range, and long endurance are required. The component combines a compact radial can package with robust thermal and ripple-handling characteristics.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 120 µF nominal capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for reliable energy storage and decoupling.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Operates from −55°C to +105°C with a rated life of 5000 hours at 105°C, supporting sustained high-temperature applications.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 100 mΩ to minimize voltage drop and improve transient response in power circuits.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 294.1 mA at 120 Hz and 555 mA at 200 kHz for effective AC filtering under load.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification — AEC-Q200 rated, making it suitable for automotive electronic modules that require component-level qualification.
• Radial Lead Package — Radial can package (φ10×20L) with 5 mm lead spacing for through-hole mounting and straightforward PCB integration.
• Long Shelf Life & Reliability — Meets JIS-based endurance and shelf-life requirements with controlled leakage current and stable capacitance over time.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant, aligning with environmental directives.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing for production-volume handling.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Power smoothing, decoupling and energy buffering in vehicle control modules and electronic power subsystems.
• Power Supply Modules — Bulk filtering and ripple suppression in DC–DC converters and intermediate bus capacitors.
• Industrial Control — Energy storage and transient suppression in motor drives, PLCs, and control boards operating across wide temperature ranges.

Unique Advantages

• Long high-temperature endurance: 5000 hours at 105°C provides predictable service life in thermal stress environments.
• Automotive-grade assurance: AEC-Q200 rating supports selection for qualified automotive designs.
