UUA1C220MCL1GS

The UUA1C220MCL1GS is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UUA series, offering 22 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ5 × 5.8 mm can-style SMD package. It is designed for high-density PCB assembly and long-life operation in demanding temperature environments.

With AEC-Q200 qualification, RoHS compliance, a rated temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C and a load life specification of 3000 hours at 105 °C, this part targets applications requiring robust, long-lived smoothing and decoupling in automotive and other harsh-environment electronic systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage 22 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% for predictable bulk capacitance on power rails.
• Long-Life Endurance Rated for 3000 hours at +105 °C (load-life assurance for chip-type sizes), supporting sustained operation in elevated-temperature installations.
• Thermal Range & Stability Operating temperature from −55 °C to +105 °C with impedance and stability data characterized at 120 Hz and 20 °C.
• Loss Tangent & Leakage tan δ max. 0.20 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and specified leakage current of 3.52 µA for this part number, enabling controlled losses and low standby current.
• Ripple Current Performance Low-frequency ripple current 30 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 45 mA (10 kHz) suitable for ripple absorption on small power rails.
• Compact SMD Packaging Chip-type radial can SMD, size φ5 × 5.8 mm with recommended land size 5.3 × 5.3 mm and delivered in embossed carrier taping for automated placement.
• Qualification & Environmental AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, meeting requirements for regulated and automotive-grade electronics supply chains.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic systems — AEC-Q200 qualification and the −55 °C to +105 °C rating make this capacitor suitable for automotive electronics requiring long life and stability.
• High-density surface-mount assemblies — Chip-type SMD can and embossed carrier taping support placement in compact, automated PCB designs.
• Long-life power filtering and decoupling — 22 µF capacitance, controlled leakage and ripple current ratings support smoothing and decoupling in modules designed for extended elevated-temperature operation.
