Overview of UPW1E152MHD6 – Miniature High-Reliability Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 25 V, 1500 µF
The UPW1E152MHD6 is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can designed for power applications. Featuring a 1,500 µF capacitance at 25 V with low impedance construction, it is intended for use where compact size, high ripple capability and long-term endurance are required.
This part is targeted at switching power supplies and automotive power systems, delivering dependable filtering and energy storage across a wide temperature range while meeting industry reliability expectations.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Tolerance — 1,500 µF nominal with tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- Rated Voltage — 25 V DC rating suitable for low-voltage power rails and power-supply decoupling.
- Low Dissipation Factor — tan δ = 0.14 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), supporting efficient AC ripple handling.
- Low Impedance — 60 mΩ impedance for reduced voltage drop under ripple and transient currents.
- High Ripple Current Capability — 1.657 A at 120 Hz (low-frequency) and 1.95 A at 10 kHz (high-frequency) to minimize temperature rise under applied ripple.
- Leakage Current — 1,125 µA leakage current (after 1 minute at rated voltage, 20°C), enabling predictable bias behavior.
- High Endurance / Reliability — Lifetime rated to 7,000 hours at 105°C under endurance test conditions.
- Wide Operating Temperature — −55°C to +105°C for broad environmental tolerance.
- Automotive-Grade Qualification — AEC-Q200 rated, suitable for automotive development and designs requiring validated reliability.
- Radial Lead Package — φ12.5 × 25 mm can size with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), radial-lead mounting for through-hole assemblies; available in bulk or bag packing.
Typical Applications
- Switching Power Supplies — Bulk energy storage and output filtering in miniature switching regulators where low impedance and high ripple capability reduce voltage ripple and thermal stress.
- Automotive Power Electronics — Power-rail smoothing and decoupling in automotive systems that require AEC-Q200-qualified components and extended endurance at elevated temperatures.
- Embedded and Industrial Power Modules — Local energy reservoir and transient suppression in compact, through-hole power modules operating over −55°C to +105°C.
Unique Advantages
- Compact footprint — φ12.5 × 25 mm can provides high capacitance in a small radial-lead package for space-constrained boards.
- High ripple handling — Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies reduce heating and improve long-term stability in AC-loaded circuits.
- Low impedance and controlled loss — 60 mΩ impedance and tan δ = 0.14 support efficient decoupling and lower power dissipation under load.
- Designed for harsh environments — −55°C to +105°C operating range and 7,000-hour endurance at 105°C provide predictable life in elevated-temperature applications.
- Automotive-grade reliability — AEC-Q200 rating aligns the part with automotive development requirements for high-reliability systems.
