UPT2P680MHD

The UPT2P680MHD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can designed for general-purpose power applications. It provides 68 µF nominal capacitance at a 220 V rating with a ±20% tolerance and is optimized for circuits that require elevated ripple handling and long operational life.

Key value propositions include high ripple-current capability, a long endurance rating of 5000 hours at 105°C, and a wide operating temperature range from −40°C to +105°C. The part is RoHS compliant and supplied in bulk/bag packaging for production-scale use.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 68 µF capacitance at 220 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance; designed for polarized applications.
• High Ripple Current — 340 mA ripple current at 120 Hz and 544 mA at 10 kHz, supporting circuits with significant AC ripple demands.
• Leakage and Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 907.6 µA (after 2 minutes at 20°C) and tan δ (max.) of 0.12 at 220 V / 120 Hz for stable loss characteristics.
• Long Life, High Temperature Endurance — Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C under DC bias plus rated ripple current.
• Compact Radial Package — φ12.5 × 25 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing and radial lead mounting for through-hole and traditional assembly processes.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant for use in regulated markets.

Typical Applications

• Lighting Ballasts — High ripple current capability and long life make this capacitor suitable for ballast circuits that require reliable AC ripple handling.
• Power Filtering — Useful in general-purpose power-supply filtering where 220 V DC ratings and robust ripple tolerance are required.
• High-Ripple Power Circuits — Applicable to circuits that experience elevated ripple or switching-frequency content up to 10 kHz, leveraging the part's specified ripple ratings.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 340 mA (120 Hz) and 544 mA (10 kHz) reduce stress on upstream regulation and smoothing stages.
• Proven endurance: 5000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions provides predictable lifetime performance for production designs.
• Compact radial form factor: φ12.5 × 25 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing enable space-efficient through-hole layouts without sacrificing capacity or voltage rating.
• Controlled leakage and dissipation: Specified leakage current (907.6 µA) and tan δ (max. 0.12 at 220 V/120 Hz) support stable low-loss behavior in bias conditions.
• Wide operating range: −40°C to +105°C suitability accommodates a broad set of ambient and operating environments.
• Regulatory-ready: RoHS compliance simplifies environmental qualification for commercial and industrial assemblies.
