URS2E680MHD

The URS2E680MHD is a Nichicon URS series miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead, standard-type package. It provides 68 µF capacitance at 25 V in a compact, low-profile can suitable for general-purpose applications.

Designed for board-level power filtering and general-purpose use, the part delivers defined ripple-current performance, controlled dissipation (tan δ), and a 2000-hour endurance rating at elevated temperature, making it suitable where predictable electrical characteristics and compact packaging are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of -20% to +20% at the rated 25 V.
• Loss Angle (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.16 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz, providing a quantified measure of dissipation for design calculations.
• Ripple Current Ratings — 490 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 784 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling selection based on expected ripple environments.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 780 µA for predictable standby and bias behavior.
• Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 2000 hours at 85°C and specified to operate from -40°C to +85°C (category temperature range from URS series).
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style construction with nominal dimensions φ18 × 20 mm and 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm). Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics — Useful wherever a polarized 68 µF, 25 V aluminum electrolytic is required for routine circuit functions and general-purpose board designs.
• Board-Level Power Filtering — Sized and specified for smoothing and ripple handling up to the listed ripple-current limits at both low and high frequencies.
• Space-Constrained, Low-Profile Assemblies — The URS series’ compact, low-profile form and radial lead mounting suit applications where vertical height and footprint are limited.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, low-profile form factor: φ18 × 20 mm can and radial-lead package reduce board footprint while retaining practical capacitance.
• Quantified ripple performance: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple-current ratings (490 mA @120 Hz, 784 mA @10 kHz) let you match capacitor selection to expected ripple environments.
• Measured dissipation factor: Specified tan δ = 0.16 at 20°C/120 Hz provides a clear basis for thermal and loss calculations.
• Defined leakage specification: 780 µA leakage current enables predictable bias and power-loss budgeting.
• Endurance information from datasheet: 2000-hour life at 85°C with specified limits for capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current supports reliability planning.
• Flexible handling options: Offered in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit prototype through production needs.

Why Choose URS2E680MHD?
