UPM1V151MPD

The UPM1V151MPD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPM series. It is a polarized radial-lead device designed for power filtering and decoupling in compact through-hole assemblies.

Engineered for robust performance, this part delivers low impedance, defined ripple handling and extended endurance for demanding temperature environments, making it suitable for industrial and AEC‑Q200‑qualified applications.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 150 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a rated voltage of 35 V, providing stable energy storage for power conditioning.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 120 mΩ helps reduce voltage ripple and improve transient response in power rails.
• Loss Characteristics — tanδ (DF) of 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling predictable AC performance for filtering applications.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 224.1 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 415 mA (200 kHz) for effective handling of both bulk and switching noise.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 157.5 µA for reliable standby and low-loss operation.
• Reliability & Endurance — Rated life of 3000 hours at 105°C for sustained operation under elevated temperature stress.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead construction with 3.5 mm lead spacing and φ8 mm case diameter for compact through-hole layouts.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant and AEC‑Q200 qualified, reflecting adherence to regulatory and automotive-grade screening requirements.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Smoothing and bulk decoupling on low-voltage rails where compact through-hole capacitors are required.
• DC–DC Converter Output — Output filtering and ripple reduction for converters, supporting both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Industrial Control Electronics — Energy storage and transient suppression in motor control and instrumentation modules operating across –55°C to 105°C.
• Automotive Electronic Modules — Use in automotive subsystems where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, high-capacitance footprint: 150 µF in a φ8 mm radial can offers significant capacitance density for space-constrained through-hole designs.
• Defined low impedance: 120 mΩ specification supports tighter voltage regulation and improved transient performance in power rails.
• Dual-frequency ripple handling: Rated ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 200 kHz address bulk smoothing and high-frequency switching noise.
• High-temperature endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long-term behavior in elevated-temperature environments.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating enables use in automotive electronics and similarly demanding applications.
• Through-hole simplicity: Radial lead form with 3.5 mm lead spacing simplifies prototyping and assembly for legacy and mixed-technology boards.
