URS2C151MRD6

The URS2C151MRD6 is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's URS series, offering a compact, low-profile φ20×20 mm can in a through-hole format. Designed for general-purpose electronic applications, it provides 150 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating with polarized construction and a -40 °C to 85 °C operating range.

Key characteristics include specified ripple current performance at both low and high frequencies, defined leakage and dissipation factor values, and a 2000-hour endurance rating at 85 °C—making it suitable where a compact, high-voltage radial electrolytic is required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Tolerance: 150 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance of -20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C), for predictable bulk energy storage in general-purpose circuits.
• High Voltage Rating: Rated for 160 V, enabling use in higher-voltage through-hole applications where elevated DC blocking or smoothing is required.
• Radial Lead, Can Package: φ20 × 20 mm radial can with 10 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), for straightforward through-hole mounting and PCB placement.
• Thermal & Endurance: Operating temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C and endurance specified as 2000 hours at 85 °C with rated voltage applied.
• Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current of 710 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 1.136 A at 10 kHz, supporting both mains-frequency and higher-frequency applications within rated limits.
• Electrical Losses & Leakage: Dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.2 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and a measured leakage current of 1060 µA.
• Packaging Options: Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing for flexible inventory and assembly handling.
• Product Lifecycle Status: End Of Life.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic circuits: Use where a polarized 150 µF, 160 V radial electrolytic is required for bulk capacitance in through-hole assemblies.
• Power supply filtering: Suitable for smoothing and decoupling tasks within the capacitor's voltage, ripple and temperature ratings.
• Repair and replacement: Compact φ20×20 mm footprint and standard lead spacing make this part appropriate for board-level component replacement in compatible designs.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, low-profile radial can: φ20 × 20 mm size provides substantial capacitance in a small through-hole package for space-constrained assemblies.
• High working voltage: 160 V rating expands suitability to higher-voltage DC circuits compared with lower-voltage electrolytics.
• Defined ripple performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz let designers assess behavior across low and high frequency conditions.
• Endurance assurance: 2000-hour life at 85 °C under rated voltage gives a quantifiable reliability baseline for thermal stress planning.
• Measured electrical parameters: Clear specifications for tan δ and leakage current enable predictable ESR-related losses and standby current budgeting.
• Flexible packing: Bulk and bag options simplify procurement for small runs, repairs, or larger production quantities.
