UUG1A103MNQ6MS

The UUG1A103MNQ6MS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UUG series, offering a very high capacitance of 10,000 µF in a surface-mount radial can package. Designed for demanding power applications, it combines large bulk capacitance with rated ripple performance and a qualified AEC‑Q200 rating for automotive usage.

Its electrical and mechanical characteristics — including a 10 V rating, ±20% tolerance, high ripple current capability, and a qualified lifetime of 2000 hours at 85°C — make it suitable where bulk energy storage and smoothing are required on compact SMD assemblies.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 10,000 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 10 V with ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20°C).
• High Ripple Current — Supports 2.2 A at 120 Hz and 2.53 A at 10 kHz, enabling effective smoothing of power rails across low and high frequencies.
• Reliability & Endurance — Endurance specified as 2000 hours at 85°C with capacitance change within ±20% after the test; leakage current specified at 3000 µA.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification — AEC‑Q200 rating included in specifications for automotive applications.
• Temperature Range — Operates from −40°C to +85°C to cover a broad environmental range.
• Compact Chip Package — φ18 × 21.5 mm radial can SMD chip package designed for surface-mount assembly; available in embossed carrier taping packaging.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power smoothing — Bulk energy storage and smoothing on power rails in automotive electronic control modules, leveraging the AEC‑Q200 qualification and high capacitance.
• DC–DC converter bulk capacitance — Provides bulk decoupling and hold-up for converters that require large capacitance and significant ripple current handling.
• Power management subsystems — Energy buffering and transient suppression where high capacitance in an SMD form factor is needed.

Unique Advantages

• Very high capacitance in an SMD chip — 10,000 µF enables significant charge storage while keeping the design surface-mount compatible, reducing board area compared with multiple smaller capacitors.
• Broad ripple performance — Rated ripple currents at both low (2.2 A at 120 Hz) and high (2.53 A at 10 kHz) frequencies support mixed-frequency power systems.
• Automotive‑grade reliability — AEC‑Q200 rating and a 2000-hour endurance at 85°C support use in applications requiring validated component robustness.
• Wide operating temperature — −40°C to +85°C operating range provides stability across typical automotive and industrial environments.
• Package and assembly readiness — Radial can SMD chip format with embossed carrier taping facilitates automated placement and throughput for production volumes.
