UPW1A562MHD6

The UPW1A562MHD6 is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPW series. It is a radial-lead, polarized electrolytic designed for low impedance and high ripple-current handling in compact power designs.

Engineered for switching power supplies and automotive electronics, this 5.6 mF, 10 V capacitor combines high capacitance in a φ18 × 20 mm can with long endurance and AEC-Q200 qualification for demanding environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 5.6 mF (5600 µF) rated at 10 V with tolerance of −20% to +20% for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 56 mΩ to help reduce voltage ripple in high-current switching applications.
• High Ripple Current — Supports 2.116 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.49 A at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling robust performance under switching loads.
• Long Endurance — 8000 hours life at 105°C, designed for extended operation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operating from −55°C to +105°C for reliable performance across automotive and industrial temperature profiles.
• Physical Package — Compact radial can: φ18 × 20 mm with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm). Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; mass production status.
• Electrical Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.27 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; leakage current 1680 µA as specified for this part.
• AEC-Q200 Rated — Qualification for applications requiring component-level automotive reliability.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk energy storage and output filtering where high ripple current and low impedance reduce voltage ripple and improve regulation.
• Automotive Electronics — Power rail smoothing, decoupling, and energy buffering in modules that require AEC-Q200-rated components and extended operating temperature.
• DC–DC Converters — Input and output filtering for compact converters where high capacitance in a small can helps minimize board area.
• Industrial Power Modules — Local energy storage and ripple suppression in compact power assemblies operating up to 105°C.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance in a Small Can — 5600 µF in a φ18 × 20 mm package reduces board footprint while providing substantial energy storage.
• Improved Ripple Handling — Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support fast switching loads and reduce thermal stress.
• Low Impedance — 56 mΩ impedance contributes to lower ESR-related losses and improved transient response in power rails.
• Designed for High Temperature Endurance — Rated for 8000 hours at 105°C to support long-term reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
• AEC-Q200 Qualification — Enables selection for automotive-grade designs where component-level qualification is required.
• Radial-Lead Convenience — Standard radial can and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify through-hole assembly and mechanical retention on board.
