UUE1C102MNS1MS

The UUE1C102MNS1MS is a chip‑type aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for demanding automotive electronics. As a surface‑mount, vibration‑resistant device in Nichicon’s UUE series, it delivers a 1 mF (1000 μF) capacitance at 16 V with a long rated load life of 5000 hours at 125 °C.

This component targets applications that require sustained high‑temperature performance, stable capacitance under stress, and industry qualification for automotive use (AEC‑Q200).

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1 mF (1000 μF) nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 16 V, with a tolerance of ±20% (‑20% ~ 20%).
• High‑temperature endurance — Rated for 5000 hours at 125 °C; endurance specifications indicate capacitance change within ±30% and leakage current within initial specified limits after the endurance test.
• Operating temperature range — Wide operating range from –55 °C to 125 °C to support elevated‑temperature environments.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified — Series qualification for automotive applications, supporting use in designs that require automotive‑grade components.
• Low leakage — Leakage current specified as not more than 0.03CV (μA) after 1 minute’s application of rated voltage at 20 °C, supporting low‑loss energy storage.
• Ripple current capability — Rated ripple current of 1.044 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.2 A at 10 kHz (high frequency), enabling reliable smoothing and decoupling under varying ripple conditions.
• Surface‑mount chip package — Radial, can‑style SMD chip type with dimensions L: 1.65 cm × D: 1.8 cm (18 × 16.5 mm case size), and recommended land size L: 1.83 × W: 1.83 cm for PCB layout.
• RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS directives (2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863), supporting regulatory requirements for restricted substances.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suited for automobile electronic systems that require heavy‑duty service and long life at elevated temperatures, benefiting from the 5000‑hour load life at 125 °C and AEC‑Q200 qualification.
• Power supply smoothing in harsh environments — Use where robust ripple handling (1.2 A at 10 kHz) and low leakage are needed to maintain stable DC rails under thermal stress.
• High‑temperature embedded modules — Ideal for modules and assemblies that must operate across –55 °C to 125 °C while retaining capacitance and leakage characteristics over time.

Unique Advantages

• Long thermal load life: Specified 5000 hours at 125 °C provides predictable end‑of‑life behavior for high‑temperature designs.
• Automotive qualification: AEC‑Q200 status supports integration into vehicle systems where qualified components are required.
• High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple current up to 1.2 A at higher frequencies helps reduce voltage ripple in power conversion and filtering stages.
• Compact SMD form factor: Chip‑type SMD package (18 × 16.5 mm) allows space‑efficient placement on PCBs while providing high capacitance density.
• Controlled leakage: Leakage current limit of 0.03CV (μA) after 1 minute at 20 °C supports low‑loss applications and predictable standby behavior.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity aids in meeting environmental and manufacturing requirements.
