Overview of UPM2A680MHD6 – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 680 µF, 100 V
The UPM2A680MHD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPM series, designed as a high-reliability, low-impedance bulk energy storage component. It is a polarized device rated for 100 V with 680 µF nominal capacitance and a wide operating temperature range from -55 °C to 105 °C.
Engineered for mass production and bag packing, this part targets applications that require long-term thermal endurance and stable ripple performance, backed by AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 680 µF nominal capacitance at a 100 V rated voltage, with a tolerance of ±20% for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
- High Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation up to 105 °C with a specified lifetime of 5000 hours at 105 °C for applicable case sizes, supporting prolonged high-temperature use.
- Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 230 mΩ, enabling improved ripple handling and reduced voltage drop in power applications.
- Ripple Performance — Ripple current ratings provided for multiple frequencies: 193.8 mA at 120 Hz and 380 mA at 200 kHz, supporting both low- and high-frequency filtering duties.
- Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with 5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.5 × D: 1.25 cm) for through-hole assembly.
- Reliability & Leakage — AEC-Q200 qualified and low leakage current characteristic per datasheet (after 1 minute at rated voltage, leakage ≤ 0.03CV µA), supporting robust, long-life designs.
- Regulatory Compliance & Packing — RoHS compliant and supplied as High Reliability Type in bulk (no terminal forming) / bag packing for production workflows.
Typical Applications
- Automotive electronics — Suited for in-vehicle power modules, control units and auxiliary systems where AEC-Q200 qualification and elevated temperature endurance are required.
- Power supply smoothing — Used for bulk energy storage and ripple smoothing in DC power rails and converters thanks to high capacitance and low impedance.
- Industrial controls — Provides stable filtering and decoupling in motor drives, PLCs and other industrial equipment exposed to wide temperature ranges.
- High-reliability systems — Appropriate for systems requiring long life at elevated temperature, leveraging the 5000-hour rating at 105 °C for sustained performance.
Unique Advantages
- Long thermal lifetime: 5000 hours at 105 °C delivers predictable end-of-life planning for high-temperature deployments.
- AEC-Q200 qualification: Enables use in automotive and similarly demanding environments where discrete component reliability is required.
- Low-impedance performance: 230 mΩ impedance helps reduce ripple voltage and improve transient response in power electronics.
- Dual-frequency ripple ratings: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 200 kHz allow designers to size capacitors for both bulk and high-frequency filtering tasks.
- Production-ready packing: Delivered in bulk/bag format with no terminal forming to streamline high-volume assembly processes.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS-compliant construction for global product acceptance and environmental requirements.
