UPZ2D181MHD

The UPZ2D181MHD is a Nichicon UPZ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, offering 180 µF capacitance at a 200 V rating. It is a miniature high-voltage, general-purpose electrolytic designed for applications that require compact, polarized energy storage with defined ripple performance and elevated temperature endurance.

This component combines a compact φ12.5 × 35.5 mm can with a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C and a rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C, making it suitable for designs where reliable capacitance, ripple handling, and thermal endurance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 180 µF nominal capacitance with a 200 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• High-temperature Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage plus ripple current conditions.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current 700 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 980 mA (10 kHz), supporting both low- and high-frequency filtering needs.
• Loss and Leakage Characteristics — tan δ (DF) 0.12 (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C) and leakage current specified at 1540 µA (after 1 minute at 20°C), enabling predictable electrical behavior.
• Mechanical and Mounting — Radial lead package with φ12.5 × 35.5 mm case size, 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), and standard bulk or bag packing options (no terminal forming).
• Temperature Range — Operational from -40°C to +105°C for use across a wide range of thermal environments.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple handling in general-purpose power supply circuits requiring up to 200 V and elevated temperature operation.
• Industrial and control equipment — Suited to control and utility electronics where a 200 V rated, high-temperature-capable electrolytic is needed for smoothing and energy storage.
• Consumer and commercial electronics — Compact radial-lead form factor supports space-constrained designs requiring reliable capacitance and predictable leakage/tan δ performance.

Unique Advantages

• Compact high-voltage design — φ12.5 × 35.5 mm can delivers 180 µF at 200 V in a miniature UPZ series package for space-sensitive layouts.
• Defined ripple capability — Specified ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz enable designers to size capacitors for different filtering frequency bands with confidence.
• Thermal robustness — Rated for continuous operation up to 105°C with a 2000 hour endurance rating, supporting higher-temperature system environments.
• Predictable electrical behavior — Low tan δ (0.12 at 120 Hz, 20°C) and specified leakage current provide stable performance characteristics for circuit design and verification.
• Straightforward integration — Radial-lead can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) simplifies through-hole assembly and mechanical retention in PCB designs.
• Readily available production status — UPZ2D181MHD is listed as mass production, supporting volume procurement and consistent supply.
