UPW1E182MHD6

The UPW1E182MHD6 is a miniature, high-reliability aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UPW series, offered in a radial lead can package. It provides 1800 μF capacitance at a 25 V rating with low impedance and elevated ripple-current capability for demanding power applications.

Designed for environments that require extended endurance and wide temperature operation, this part targets switching power supplies, automotive electronics, and compact power modules where size, reliability, and ripple handling are critical.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 1.8 mF (1800 μF) rated at 25 V with ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Low Impedance: 58 mΩ impedance supports tight voltage stability under load and efficient power delivery.
• High Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 1.879 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.21 A (10 kHz) for robust filtering in switching supplies.
• Long Endurance: Rated lifetime of 8000 hours at 105°C for extended field reliability under elevated temperature and bias conditions.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from −55°C to +105°C to suit harsh thermal environments.
• Physical Package: Compact radial can with dimensions φ16 × 20 mm (L) and 7.5 mm lead spacing; available in bulk or bag packing.
• Loss Characteristics: tan δ = 0.14 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) for predictable AC loss behavior.
• Qualification: AEC-Q200 rating, indicating suitability for applications requiring industry-recognized passive component qualification.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies: Bulk storage and output filtering where low impedance and high ripple current handling improve voltage regulation.
• Automotive Electronics: Designed for automotive applications and qualified to AEC-Q200 for use in vehicle electronic modules that demand durability and temperature robustness.
• Miniature Power Modules: Compact radial can form factor supports space-constrained designs that still require high capacitance and endurance.

Unique Advantages

• Compact energy density: 1800 μF in a φ16 × 20 mm can delivers substantial capacitance where board space is limited.
• Enhanced ripple performance: Specified LF and HF ripple currents (1.879 A at 120 Hz, 2.21 A at 10 kHz) enable effective filtering across a wide frequency range.
• Extended operational life: 8000 hours at 105°C offers long-term stability in high-temperature, biased conditions.
• Wide operating temperature: −55°C to +105°C supports deployment in environments with large thermal swings.
• Engineered reliability: AEC-Q200 rating provides an added level of qualification for applications with strict reliability requirements.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Low impedance (58 mΩ) and tan δ = 0.14 at 120 Hz provide measurable performance parameters for tight design margins.
