UPT2G820MHD

The UPT2G820MHD from Nichicon is a polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can package. It provides 82 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a compact φ16 × 30.5 mm body with 7.5 mm lead spacing.

Designed for general-purpose electronic assemblies, the UPT2G820MHD offers high ripple-current capability, extended endurance at elevated temperature, and RoHS-compliant construction—suitable where high-voltage, moderate-capacitance, through-hole components are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 82 µF rated capacitance at 400 V, specified with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz).
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 500 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 800 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling robust AC handling within its specified conditions.
• Long Endurance — Specified lifetime of 5000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current, with defined limits on capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage after the test.
• Temperature Range & Stability — Operates from −40°C to 105°C with stability characteristics measured at 120 Hz; tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified at 0.15 (max.) for the 400 V rating (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz).
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead (through-hole) can package, dimensions φ16 × 30.5 mm, lead spacing 7.5 mm ±0.5 mm, offered in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current value for this part: 1978 µA (measured per the product data conditions).
• Regulatory Compliance — RoHS compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• Ballast Circuits — Suited for ballast application as noted in the product series information, where high-voltage and high-ripple handling are required.
• General-Purpose Electronic Assemblies — Used where a polarized aluminum electrolytic with 82 µF at 400 V is needed for bulk energy storage, filtering, or DC link functions.
• Through-Hole Mounting Designs — Radial lead form factor and defined lead spacing simplify placement in traditional through-hole PCBs and assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Robust ripple performance: Dual ripple ratings (500 mA at 120 Hz and 800 mA at 10 kHz) give clear guidance for low- and high-frequency ripple environments.
• Long, specified life: 5000 hours endurance at 105°C under rated conditions provides predictable aging and lifecycle planning for designs.
• Wide operating temperature: −40°C to 105°C operation supports a broad range of ambient conditions.
• Compact radial can: φ16 × 30.5 mm package delivers high-voltage capability in a small through-hole footprint with 7.5 mm lead spacing.
• Measured performance parameters: Specified tan δ (0.15 at 400 V, 120 Hz) and an explicit leakage current value (1978 µA) allow designers to assess dissipation and leakage budgets precisely.
• Production readiness: Part is listed as mass production and is available in bulk or bag packing for volume assembly workflows.
