UPZ2G560MHD

The UPZ2G560MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UPZ series, designed for general-purpose high-voltage applications. It provides 56 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating in a compact φ12.5×35.5 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing.

This part offers a balance of voltage capability, ripple handling and thermal endurance—making it suitable for engineers needing a compact, polarized capacitor for high-voltage power circuits that require reliable filtering and energy storage across a wide temperature range.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF rated capacitance with a 400 V rated voltage and a capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20% for predictable behavior in high-voltage circuits.
• Packaging & Mounting — Radial lead (can) package with φ12.5×35.5 mm body size and 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit through-hole assembly processes.
• Thermal Range & Endurance — Operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105°C, supporting prolonged operation in elevated ambient conditions.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 420 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 630 mA at 10 kHz, helping manage AC ripple in power stages across frequency ranges.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 996 µA and a dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.15 measured at 20°C/120 Hz for the 400 V rating, enabling controlled dielectric losses and predictable startup behavior.
• Polarized Design — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction for DC-bias applications where capacitance per volume and voltage withstand are required.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering — Bulk and decoupling capacitor for 400 V DC rails where 56 µF capacitance and high-voltage rating support ripple reduction and energy buffering.
• DC bus smoothing — Energy storage and smoothing on high-voltage DC buses in general-purpose industrial power electronics.
• High-voltage power conversion — Filtering and ripple management in inverters, converters or other 400 V-class power stages that require radial-lead through-hole components.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 400 V rating enables use in higher-voltage DC circuits without increasing package diameter.
• Compact, space-conscious form factor: φ12.5×35.5 mm can delivers 56 µF in a miniature footprint for high-voltage applications.
• Frequency-flexible ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz let designers account for low- and high-frequency AC stresses.
• Extended thermal endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C supports long-term reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
• Clear manufacturing options: Bulk and bag packing choices simplify inventory and assembly for through-hole production processes.
