UPW2D220MPD

The UPW2D220MPD is a miniature, polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPW series, engineered for high-reliability power applications. It combines a compact radial-can package with low impedance characteristics suitable for switching power supplies and other space-constrained power electronics.

With an AEC-Q200 rating and a 22 µF capacitance at a 200 V rating, this part targets automotive and demanding industrial power systems where elevated temperature endurance and robust ripple handling are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 22 µF capacitance rated for 200 V, providing energy storage and decoupling for high-voltage power rails.
• Miniature Radial Can Package: Compact dimensions (L: 2 cm × D: 1 cm) with 5 mm lead spacing and radial lead mounting for through-hole assembly in space-constrained boards.
• High-Temperature Endurance: Rated operating range −40°C to 105°C with a specified lifetime of 5000 hours at 105°C for sustained performance under elevated temperature stress.
• AEC-Q200 Qualified: Designed to meet AEC-Q200 reliability requirements for automotive electronic applications.
• Low Impedance, High Ripple Capability: Low-impedance construction (series characteristic) with ripple current ratings of 140 mA at 120 Hz and 224 mA at 10 kHz for effective smoothing in switching supplies.
• Polarized Aluminum Electrolyte: Polar type capacitor suitable for DC decoupling and bulk energy applications where polarized capacitors are required.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies: Low impedance and ripple capability make this capacitor suitable for output filtering and decoupling in switching regulators and supplies.
• Automotive Electronics: AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance support use in on-board power systems and automotive control modules.
• Space-Constrained Power Modules: The miniature radial can and small footprint enable use in compact power assemblies and modules where board area is limited.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive-Grade Reliability: AEC-Q200 rating provides a verifiable reliability baseline for vehicle electrical systems and other high-reliability applications.
• High Voltage Capability: 200 V rating allows use on higher-voltage rails without adding series components, simplifying design.
• Compact Footprint: Small L × D dimensions and 5 mm lead spacing reduce PCB real estate while retaining through-hole mounting robustness.
• Designed for High-Temperature Duty: 5000 hours at 105°C rated lifetime delivers predictable service life in elevated ambient conditions.
• Effective Ripple Management: Specified ripple current at both low and high frequencies supports smoothing and decoupling across switching frequencies.
