UPV1A271MGD

The UPV1A271MGD is a miniature, low-impedance aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial can package, designed for general-purpose electronic designs that require compact bulk capacitance. It delivers 270 µF at 10 V with polarized radial-lead terminations and is specified for long-term operation up to +105°C.

Engineered for high-temperature endurance, this part withstands 5000 hours of rated-voltage load life at +105°C and is RoHS compliant, making it suitable where reliability and environmental compliance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance with a 10 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing a compact bulk energy storage option for low-voltage circuits.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to +105°C with a specified lifetime of 5000 hours at +105°C under rated voltage.
• Low Impedance Design — Part of Nichicon’s UPV low-impedance series, optimizing performance where reduced AC impedance and stable ripple handling are needed.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Rated ripple capabilities include 275.4 mA at 120 Hz and 405 mA at 200 kHz, with a frequency coefficient noted for higher frequencies within the series specification range.
• Compact Radial Can Package — Radial, can-style package with 3.5 mm lead spacing and a compact footprint (L: 1.15 × D: 0.8 cm), suited for dense PCB layouts and through-hole assembly.
• Leakage Current Specification — Series leakage current behavior follows the datasheet formula (not more than 0.03CV µA after 1 minute’s application of rated voltage at 20°C), enabling predictable design margins.
• Environmental Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Bulk capacitance for smoothing and energy storage in compact, low-voltage circuits, leveraging the 270 µF value and specified ripple current ratings.
• Decoupling in compact modules — Through-hole radial mounting and small can dimensions support decoupling and transient suppression where board space is constrained.
• High-temperature electronics — Systems that require sustained operation at elevated temperatures benefit from the 5000-hour endurance rating at +105°C and the −55°C to +105°C operating range.

Unique Advantages

• Proven high-temperature endurance — Specified 5000 hours at +105°C under rated voltage, providing predictable long-term behavior in demanding thermal environments.
• Compact footprint — Small can size (L: 1.15 × D: 0.8 cm) and 3.5 mm lead spacing reduce PCB area while maintaining through-hole reliability.
• Design-predictable leakage — Leakage current bounded by the datasheet formula (0.03CV µA), helping maintain margin calculations for low-current designs.
• Wide operating temperature range — −55°C to +105°C rating supports use across a broad set of environmental conditions without derating beyond specified limits.
• RoHS compliant — Meets environmental regulatory requirements for lead-free assemblies.
