UPM1K820MHD6

The UPM1K820MHD6 is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPM series designed for low impedance and long-term reliability. It is a polarized, radial-lead can with 82 µF capacitance and an 80 V rated voltage.

Built for applications that require elevated temperature endurance and robust ripple handling, this component targets automotive and other demanding electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification, 5000 hours of life at 105°C, and RoHS compliance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 82 µF nominal capacitance with an 80 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low Impedance Performance — Specified impedance of 270 mΩ to support stable decoupling and filtering in power circuits.
• Ripple Current Handling — Low-frequency ripple current 184.6 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 355 mA (200 kHz) to support dynamic load filtering.
• Loss Characteristics — tan δ of 0.08 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) for predictable dissipation and stability.
• Leakage Current — Typical leakage current value provided as 196.8 µA, enabling predictable standby behavior after voltage application.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C, supporting long-term operation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead package (φ12.5 × 15 mm), 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), and polarized can for through-hole mounting and manual or automated assembly.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, indicating suitability for regulated and automotive-grade applications.
• Packaging Options — Supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit production and prototyping needs.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Electronics — Suitable for power modules and control electronics that require AEC-Q200 qualification and extended high-temperature lifetime.
• On-board Power Filtering — Used for smoothing and decoupling in DC-DC converters and power rails thanks to low impedance and defined ripple current ratings.
• Electronic Control Units (ECUs) — Appropriate for automotive control units and other systems that demand long-term stability across −55°C to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Long-term high-temperature reliability: 5000 hours rated life at 105°C provides predictable service life in hot environments.
• Automotive-ready qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in regulated automotive electronic systems.
• Clear electrical specifications: Defined impedance (270 mΩ), tan δ (0.08), and leakage current (196.8 µA) simplify design margin calculations.
• Robust ripple handling: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (184.6 mA at 120 Hz, 355 mA at 200 kHz) help ensure performance across typical switching and mains frequencies.
• Compact radial can form factor: φ12.5 × 15 mm size with 5 mm lead spacing balances board space and through-hole mounting convenience.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in environmentally regulated production lines.
