UPM1J220MED

The UPM1J220MED is a Nichicon UPM series radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 22 µF and 63 V with a ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C. It is part of the UPM low-impedance, high-reliability family and is supplied in a compact radial can (φ6.3 × 11 mm) with 2.5 mm lead spacing.

Engineered for demanding environments, this AEC-Q200-qualified, RoHS-compliant unit supports an operating temperature range of −55°C to 105°C and an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C, making it suitable for automotive power electronics where stable filtering and energy storage are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 22 µF nominal capacitance rated at 63 V for DC filtering and bulk decoupling in compact circuits.
• Tolerance & Loss: ±20% capacitance tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C) with a low dissipation factor (tanδ) of 0.08 at 63 V, 120 Hz, 20°C to help minimize AC losses.
• Ripple Current Ratings: Specified low-frequency ripple current of 55 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 110 mA at 200 kHz to aid in selecting for both mains-frequency and switching-power applications.
• Leakage Current: Measured leakage current of 41.58 µA, allowing predictable standby and leakage performance in sensitive circuits.
• Temperature & Endurance: Wide operating range from −55°C to 105°C with a rated life/endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C for thermal reliability under elevated temperature stress.
• Package & Mechanical: Radial lead, can-type package (φ6.3 × 11 mm), lead spacing 2.5 mm (±0.5 mm), available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for straightforward through-hole assembly and handling.
• Automotive-Grade & Compliance: AEC-Q200-qualified and RoHS-compliant, supporting automotive design and regulatory requirements.
• Product Status: End Of Life — suitable for last-time buys or legacy design support; request availability details.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics: Bulk decoupling and smoothing for power-supply rails in control modules and electronic control units (ECUs).
• Automotive sensor and actuator power circuits: Local energy storage and filtering to stabilize supply to sensors and actuators across temperature extremes.
• Automotive switching regulators: Output filtering and ripple attenuation for DC–DC converter stages in vehicle systems.
• Automotive backup/hold-up circuits: Short-term energy hold-up where compact radial capacitors are required for transient support.

Unique Advantages

• AEC-Q200 qualification: Provides the traceable automotive-grade qualification needed for use in vehicle systems.
• Wide temperature capability: −55°C to 105°C rating supports a broad range of operating environments common in automotive installations.
• Compact radial can: φ6.3 × 11 mm form factor with 2.5 mm lead spacing enables space-efficient through-hole placement on PCBs.
• Defined ripple handling: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple current specifications (55 mA @120 Hz and 110 mA @200 kHz) help select the component based on the application’s ripple profile.
• Low dissipation factor: tanδ = 0.08 at rated conditions helps reduce AC losses and heating in cyclic applications.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory requirements for electronic assemblies.
