UPW0J272MPD

The UPW0J272MPD is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPW series. It is a radial-lead, polarized electrolytic designed for applications that demand low impedance, sustained ripple handling and long-term endurance in compact packages.

Typical use cases include switching power supplies and automotive electronic systems where high ripple current capability, extended life at elevated temperature and AEC‑Q200 qualification are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2700 µF (2.7 mF) rated at 6.3 V with capacitance tolerance of ±20% (−20% ~ +20%).
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 70 mΩ, supporting stable performance in supply decoupling and ripple conditions.
• High Ripple Capacity — Low-frequency ripple current 1.543 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 1.815 A at 10 kHz (frequency-dependent performance documented in the series specifications).
• Dielectric Loss — Dissipation factor (tan δ) 0.24 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, suitable for power applications where ESR/DF matter.
• Leakage Current — Measured leakage current of 510.3 µA, specified after rated voltage application conditions.
• High Temperature Endurance — Rated life 5000 hours at 105°C with specified limits on capacitance change, tan δ and leakage current after endurance testing.
• Operating Range & Reliability — Wide operating temperature range from −55°C to +105°C and AEC‑Q200 rating for automotive-grade reliability.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can package; dimensions φ10 × 30.5 mm (D × L) with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance). Available in bulk or bag packing; mass production status.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and high ripple current capability support bulk decoupling and output smoothing in switching regulators.
• Automotive Electronics — AEC‑Q200 rating and −55°C to +105°C operation make it suitable for automotive electronic modules requiring long-term reliability.
• Power Rail Ripple Suppression — Rated ripple current and low DF enable effective suppression of ripple across DC power rails in compact board layouts.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, High‑Energy Density — 2700 µF in a φ10 × 30.5 mm can provides substantial capacitance where board space is limited.
• Robust Ripple Handling — Documented ripple current ratings at both low and high frequencies help reduce heating and extend service life in dynamic power applications.
• Long Life at Elevated Temperature — 5000 hours endurance at 105°C supports designs targeting extended field life under thermal stress.
• Automotive‑Grade Qualification — AEC‑Q200 rating supports selection for automotive system designs requiring industry-recognized reliability standards.
• Practical Through‑Hole Form Factor — Radial lead configuration with 5 mm spacing simplifies insertion and secure mounting for through-hole assemblies.
• Measured Loss and Leakage Data — Specified tan δ and leakage current figures allow designers to model performance and thermal behavior precisely.
