UPS1E682MHD

The UPS1E682MHD from Nichicon is a miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UPS series, designed for radial-leaded, through-hole applications. It is optimized for switching power supplies and general-purpose power filtering where compact size and low impedance are required.

Key performance characteristics include a rated capacitance of 6.8 mF at 25 V, a low impedance of 27 mΩ, wide operating temperature from –55 °C to +105 °C, and a rated high-temperature lifetime of 3000 hours at 105 °C. Ripple handling is specified at 2.871 A (120 Hz) and 3.3 A (10 kHz), supporting demanding ripple-current environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — Rated at 6.8 mF and 25 V, suitable for bulk energy storage and decoupling in power circuits.
• Low Impedance — 27 mΩ impedance supports lower voltage ripple and improved filtering performance in switching supplies.
• Wide Temperature Range — Specified for –55 °C to +105 °C, enabling operation across harsh thermal environments.
• High-Temperature Endurance — Lifetime of 3000 hours at 105 °C under rated conditions for reliable long-term performance.
• Ripple Current Capacity — Rated ripple currents of 2.871 A at 120 Hz and 3.3 A at 10 kHz allow effective handling of low- and high-frequency ripple components.
• Radial Lead, Can Package — 7.5 mm lead spacing, radial-can construction and through-hole mounting for robust mechanical retention and easy PCB assembly.
• Compact Footprint — Physical size L: 4 × D: 1.8 cm provides a miniature option when board space is constrained.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directives (2011/65/EU,(EU)2015/863) for lead-free environmental requirements.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and output filtering to reduce ripple and stabilize DC rails.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering — Energy storage and decoupling in a wide range of electronic power circuits.
