UPM1K151MHD6

The UPM1K151MHD6 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPM series configured in a radial‑lead can. It delivers 150 µF nominal capacitance at an 80 V rating with low impedance and engineered endurance for demanding environments.

Designed for automotive applications and other high‑reliability systems, this radial lead capacitor combines AEC‑Q200 qualification, a wide operating temperature range of −55°C to +105°C, and a 5000‑hour rated life at 105°C to provide stable performance under extended thermal and electrical stress.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 150 µF nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C), providing defined energy storage for mid‑voltage circuits.
• Low Impedance: Rated impedance of 180 mΩ supports lower ESR performance for improved ripple handling and transient response.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 5000 hours life at +105°C under rated conditions, enabling long operational life in high‑temperature installations.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified: Engineered to meet AEC‑Q200 requirements for passive components, supporting use in regulated automotive designs.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics: Specified leakage current of 360 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.08, enabling predictable leakage and dissipation behavior.
• Ripple Current Ratings: 253.8 mA at 120 Hz and 470 mA at 200 kHz, supporting AC ripple and switching applications within the rated limits.
• Radial Lead Can Package: φ16 × 15 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial leads, supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for flexible assembly handling.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from −55°C to +105°C to meet the thermal demands of harsh environments.
• Mass Production Availability: Product status: Mass Production for consistent supply.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Systems: AEC‑Q200 qualification, 80 V rating and 150 µF capacitance make this part suitable for automotive power modules where reliable bulk energy storage and ripple control are required.
• Power Electronics Assemblies: Low impedance (180 mΩ) and specified ripple currents support smoothing and decoupling in DC‑DC converters and intermediate bus circuits under repeated thermal stress.
• Control Modules and Electronic Units: Long endurance (5000 h at 105°C) and wide operating temperature range enable stable performance in engine control units, body control modules, and other vehicle electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Extended High‑Temperature Life: 5000‑hour endurance at +105°C reduces replacement frequency and supports long duty cycles in thermally severe environments.
• Automotive‑Grade Qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualification aligns the component with industry requirements for passive components used in automotive systems.
• Predictable Electrical Performance: Defined tan δ (0.08), leakage current (360 µA), and impedance (180 mΩ) provide measurable parameters for robust power‑stage design and simulation.
• Dual Frequency Ripple Ratings: Ripple current specifications at 120 Hz and 200 kHz allow designers to assess performance across line‑frequency and switching‑frequency conditions.
• Practical Radial Packaging: φ16 × 15 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing supports traditional through‑hole assembly and straightforward mechanical integration.
• Supply‑Ready Packaging Options: Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to fit production and prototyping workflows.
