UPW1V102MHD

The UPW1V102MHD is a high-reliability, miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPW series, supplied in a radial lead can. Designed for switching power supplies and other power-dense electronics, it combines low impedance and extended endurance for demanding thermal and ripple-stress environments.

Key value propositions include a 1,000 µF capacitance at 35 V, low impedance (60 mΩ), and long life at elevated temperature (7,000 hours at 105°C), making it suitable for designs that require durable bulk capacitance in a compact radial package.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance 1,000 µF capacitance with tolerance -20% to +20% and rated at 35 V; impedance specified at 60 mΩ and tanδ (DF) of 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• High Ripple Handling Low-frequency ripple current of 1.4625 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 1.95 A at 10 kHz—supports capacitor use under continuous AC stress.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics Leakage current listed as 1,050 µA and loss tangent defined for reliable performance verification at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• Thermal Endurance Rated operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C with a guaranteed life of 7,000 hours at 105°C under rated conditions.
• Package and Mounting Radial lead can package, size φ12.5 × 25 mm length, with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm); available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification AEC-Q200 rating is listed in the specifications, supporting use in regulated or higher-reliability applications where this qualification is required.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies Bulk smoothing and hold-up capacitance where low impedance and high ripple handling reduce output voltage ripple and improve regulation.
• Automotive Electronics Power modules and control units that require components rated for elevated temperature and AEC-Q200 qualification.
• High-Reliability Power Filtering Embedded and industrial systems needing long-life, low-impedance capacitors for decoupling and energy storage under continuous bias and ripple.

Unique Advantages

• Substantial Bulk Capacitance in a Compact Can 1,000 µF in a φ12.5 × 25 mm radial package provides high energy density for space-constrained power designs.
• Low Impedance for Improved Power Quality 60 mΩ impedance and defined tanδ help minimize voltage drop and thermal loss in high-current applications.
• High Ripple Current Capability Specified ripple ratings at both low and high frequencies allow predictable performance across switching frequencies.
• Extended High-Temperature Life 7,000 hours at 105°C enables long-term reliability in thermally demanding installations.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability AEC-Q200 listing supports deployment in regulated automotive and similarly demanding environments.
• Flexible Packaging for Assembly Radial lead format with bulk or bag packing simplifies through-hole assembly and prototype handling.
