UPM2C100MPD

The UPM2C100MPD is a Nichicon UPM series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-can package. It delivers 100 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating with a polarized, radial-lead form factor intended for through‑hole applications.

Designed for demanding environments, the part offers a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, a rated endurance of 5000 hours at +105°C (UPM series specification), AEC‑Q200 qualification, and RoHS compliance. Packaging is supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing. Status: End Of Life.

Key Features

• Electrolytic Radial-Lead Construction φ10 × 16 mm can with radial leads and 5 mm lead spacing for reliable through‑hole mounting.
• Electrical Rating 100 µF nominal capacitance, 16 V rated voltage, capacitance tolerance ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low Dissipation (tan δ) tan δ = 0.16 (typical for the 16 V rating) indicating low loss at 120 Hz per UPM series data.
• Leakage Current Specified leakage current of 164 µA (measured after application of rated voltage as described).
• High‑Temperature Endurance Endurance of 5000 hours at +105°C per series specification, with defined post‑test limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage.
• Ripple Current Ratings Ripple current capability specified as 90 mA at 120 Hz and 144 mA at 200 kHz to support real-world power rails.
• Automotive Qualification & Compliance AEC‑Q200 rated and RoHS compliant for regulated-environment applications.
• Packaging & Status Supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing. Product status is End Of Life.
• Polarized Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction—observe polarity in circuit placement.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suited for filtering and decoupling on automotive electronic modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification is required.
• Power Rail Filtering — Used for smoothing and bulk decoupling on DC power rails in embedded systems.
