UPW1H560MED

The UPW1H560MED is a radial‑lead, miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UPW series, engineered for low impedance and high reliability in power electronics. It provides 56 µF capacitance at a 50 V rating in a compact φ6.3 × 15 mm can with 2.5 mm lead spacing.

This part is intended for use in switching power supplies and applications requiring AEC‑Q200 rated components and operation across a wide temperature range. Note: the product status is End Of Life.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF nominal capacitance rated at 50 V for decoupling and bulk energy storage in compact power designs.
• Low Impedance / Ripple Handling — Specified ripple currents of 108 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 360 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency) to support switching supply applications.
• High Reliability & Automotive Rating — AEC‑Q200 rated for designs that require automotive‑grade passive components.
• Wide Temperature & Endurance — Operates from −55 °C to 105 °C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105 °C.
• Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) specified as 0.10 at 20 °C, 120 Hz for the 50 V rating.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead can (φ6.3 × 15 mm) with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); available in bulk or bag packing.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 84 µA (measured after application of rated voltage conditions).

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Local bulk capacitance and ripple filtering for DC‑DC converters and power modules.
• Automotive Electronics — Use in automotive subsystems where AEC‑Q200 rated passives are required and space is constrained.
• Embedded Power Rails — Decoupling and smoothing on compact boards that require polarized electrolytic capacitance in a small footprint.

Unique Advantages

• Compact Form Factor: φ6.3 × 15 mm can delivers 56 µF in a small package to save PCB space.
• Designed for Switch‑Mode Power: Low impedance characteristics and specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies support switching supply performance.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualification: Provides a recognized reliability baseline for automotive and high‑stress applications.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range: −55 °C to 105 °C supports demanding thermal environments.
• Durability at Elevated Temperature: 2000 hours endurance at 105 °C gives a measurable life expectation for high‑temperature use cases.
• Standard Radial Mounting: Through‑hole radial leads with defined lead spacing simplify placement and assembly in legacy and mixed‑technology designs.
