UPS1A222MHD

The UPS1A222MHD from Nichicon is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial can package designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 2.2 mF capacitance at a 10 V rating with low impedance and radial lead mounting for through-hole designs.

Engineered for power circuits and switching power supply environments, this part combines a wide operating temperature range (−55°C to +105°C) with defined ripple-current capability and a 3000-hour rated lifetime at 105°C, supporting robust performance in thermally demanding applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.2 mF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 10 V for bulk energy storage and decoupling in low-voltage power rails.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 75 mΩ, reducing AC loss and improving transient response in power systems.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 1.087 A at 120 Hz and 1.25 A at 10 kHz to handle switching and high-frequency ripple loads.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55°C to +105°C, enabling use across a wide range of environmental conditions.
• High-Temperature Lifetime — Endurance rating of 3000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions for predictable long-term performance.
• Radial Through-Hole Package — Radial, can-style package with 5 mm lead spacing for straightforward PCB mounting and prototyping.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS requirements for environmental compatibility.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and defined ripple-current ratings make this capacitor suitable for input/output smoothing and bulk decoupling in switching regulators.
• Power Management Modules — 2.2 mF capacitance and high ripple tolerance support local energy storage and transient suppression in DC-DC converters and power distribution modules.
• Industrial Controls — Wide operating temperature range and long high-temperature lifetime enable reliable operation in industrial power electronics and control units.
• Consumer and Embedded Electronics — Compact radial footprint and through-hole mounting suit power filtering and decoupling in embedded boards and consumer power supplies.

Unique Advantages

• Consistent High-Temperature Endurance — 3000 hours at 105°C provides predictable aging characteristics for long-term power designs.
• Measurable Low-Impedance Performance — 75 mΩ impedance helps reduce voltage ripple and improve regulator stability.
• High Ripple Capacity Across Frequencies — Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz support both low-frequency smoothing and higher-frequency switching environments.
• Compact, Assembly-Friendly Package — Miniature radial can with 5 mm lead spacing simplifies placement on through-hole PCBs and reduces board area compared with larger cans.
• Wide Ambient Operating Range — −55°C to +105°C rating allows deployment in varied temperature conditions without additional thermal qualification steps.
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental requirements for many supply chains.
