UPZ2D221MHD

The UPZ2D221MHD from Nichicon is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UPZ series, specified at 220 µF and 200 V. It is a compact, high-voltage miniature can designed for general-purpose power applications that require stable capacitance, defined ripple handling and extended endurance at elevated temperatures.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance — 220 µF nominal with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C), providing predictable stored charge for general-purpose circuits.
• Rated Voltage — 200 V DC rating suitable for higher-voltage power rails within the UPZ series range.
• Loss Characteristics — tanδ 0.12 (maximum) at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling characterization of ESR-related loss for design margin calculations.
• Ripple Current Capability — 800 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.12 A at 10 kHz (high frequency), giving defined RMS ripple handling across common switching and rectified supplies.
• Leakage Current — 1,860 µA (measured after 1 minute at 20°C), specified for predictable leakage budgeting in DC circuits.
• Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 2,000 hours at 105°C with operating range from −40°C to +105°C, supporting designs that require elevated-temperature endurance.
• Form Factor & Mounting — Radial lead, aluminum can package sized φ12.5 × 40 mm with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), for through-hole placement and straightforward PCB layout.
• Packaging & Availability — Supplied in bulk or bag packing with mass-production status for volume procurement.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — Filtering and smoothing on DC rails where a 200 V-rated electrolytic is required.
• Power supply ripple handling — Use where defined low- and high-frequency ripple current capability is needed for rectifier and switching regulator outputs.
• High-temperature environments — Circuits that require components rated for continuous operation up to 105°C and with specified endurance at that temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 200 V rating supports designs on elevated DC buses without resorting to larger, more complex capacitor networks.
• Defined ripple performance: 800 mA (120 Hz) and 1.12 A (10 kHz) ripple ratings allow straightforward thermal and reliability margin planning for both low- and high-frequency ripple sources.
• Thermal endurance: 2,000 hours at 105°C provides a measurable lifetime metric for long-term reliability assessments in warm operating environments.
• Compact radial can: φ12.5 × 40 mm package with 5 mm lead spacing delivers a small footprint for through-hole designs while maintaining the capacitance and voltage required.
• Predictable electrical characteristics: Specified tanδ and leakage current values enable accurate loss, leakage, and impedance budgeting in power designs.
• Production-ready supply: Mass production status and standard bulk/bag packing simplify sourcing for volume manufacturing.
