The UPS2C330MHD is a miniature, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for radial lead through-hole applications. It provides 33 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating and is intended for use in switching power supplies and other general-purpose power filtering roles.

This Nichicon UPS-series device combines compact dimensions and RoHS compliance with performance-oriented electrical and thermal characteristics to support compact power designs that require polarized bulk capacitance and robust ripple handling.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 33 µF, 160 V Designed to deliver 33 µF capacitance at a 160 V rated voltage with a tolerance of ±20%.
• Low Impedance & Ripple Capability Miniature, low-impedance construction with rated ripple currents of 180 mA at 120 Hz and 288 mA at 10 kHz, suitable for handling switching supply ripple.
• Polarized Radial Package Radial lead, can-style package for through-hole mounting; polarized for DC power applications.
• Compact Mechanical Profile Lead spacing 5 mm and overall size approximately L: 2.00 cm × D: 1.25 cm for space-constrained layouts.
• Wide Operating Temperature Specified to operate from −40 °C to +105 °C, supporting elevated-temperature environments.
• High-Temperature Endurance Designed for 3000 hours at 105 °C under rated conditions, supporting long-term stability in demanding applications.
• Low Leakage Characteristics (per series datasheet) Leakage current characteristic per the UPS series: after 1 minute’s application of rated voltage at 20 °C, leakage current is not more than 0.03CV (µA).
• RoHS Compliant Meets RoHS directive requirements (2011/65/EU,(EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies Used for bulk decoupling and ripple smoothing in switching regulator outputs and intermediate stages.
• General-Purpose Power Filtering Suitable for general DC filtering tasks where polarized capacitance and radial mounting are required.
• Compact Power Designs Miniature size and radial lead format allow integration into compact through-hole power modules and assemblies.
