UPM2A101MPD

The UPM2A101MPD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UPM series, designed as a radial‑lead, can‑style capacitor providing 100 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating. It targets applications that require high voltage handling, low impedance, and long operational life in demanding temperature environments.

With AEC‑Q200 qualification, a rated temperature range of –55°C to +105°C and a 5000‑hour load life at 105°C, this capacitor is positioned for use in automotive and industrial power systems where reliability and ripple performance matter.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for high‑voltage smoothing and decoupling duties.
• Low Impedance Performance — Specified impedance of 150 mΩ and tan δ of 0.08, delivering low loss and improved ripple handling in power circuits.
• Thermal and Endurance Rating — Rated for operation from –55°C to +105°C with a guaranteed 5000 hours life at 105°C under rated bias and ripple conditions.
• Leakage and Ripple — Maximum leakage current specified at 300 µA and rated ripple current values of 330.2 mA at 120 Hz and 635 mA at 200 kHz for reliable long‑term operation under AC ripple stress.
• Automotive Qualification — AEC‑Q200 rated, supporting automotive applications that require component-level qualification.
• Radial Lead Package — φ10 × 30.5 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) in a radial lead format for through‑hole mounting and straightforward PCB integration; available in bulk or bag packing.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant to support regulated production environments.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Systems — Engine control units, power distribution modules and other automotive power electronics that require AEC‑Q200 qualified, high‑voltage bulk capacitance.
• Power Supply Smoothing — High‑voltage DC power rails and intermediate bus capacitors where 100 V rating and low impedance improve voltage stability under ripple load.
• Motor Drive and Inverter Support — Energy buffering and ripple suppression in motor control and inverter circuits operating at elevated temperatures.
• Industrial Control — Decoupling and energy storage in industrial automation and control equipment exposed to wide temperature ranges and extended duty cycles.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage Capability: 100 V rating enables use on higher‑voltage DC rails without series stacking.
• Extended High‑Temperature Life: 5000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long‑term performance in hot operating environments.
• Automotive‑Grade Reliability: AEC‑Q200 qualification supports use in automotive designs that require component qualification.
• Low Loss and Low Impedance: 150 mΩ impedance and 0.08 tan δ reduce power loss and improve ripple handling for cleaner DC rails.
• Practical Through‑Hole Form Factor: Radial lead, φ10 × 30.5 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing simplifies assembly and mechanical mounting for rugged designs.
• Regulatory and Production Readiness: RoHS compliance and mass production status support scaled deployment and regulatory requirements.
