Overview of UUG2C680MNJ6MS – Aluminum Electrolytic SMD Capacitor, 68 µF / 160 V
The UUG2C680MNJ6MS is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UUG series, providing 68 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating in a compact can-style SMD package (φ12.5 × 21L). It is designed for applications that require high-voltage, board-mounted aluminum electrolytic performance in a chip-type form factor.
Key technical attributes include a measured tanδ of 0.2 (20°C, 120 Hz), rated ripple currents for both low- and high-frequency operation, AEC-Q200 qualification, and a 2000-hour endurance rating at 85°C — specifications that support reliable operation in temperature-stressed environments.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF rated capacitance with a 160 V rated voltage for high-voltage SMD applications.
- Capacitance Tolerance — ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C) for predictable sizing in designs.
- Loss Tangent (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.2 when measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting specified AC performance.
- Ripple Current Handling — 500 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 800 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency) to support both mains-frequency and higher-frequency ripple conditions.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 535.2 µA (measured condition provided in product data).
- Endurance & Temperature — Rated for 2000 hours at 85°C with an operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.
- Package & Mounting — Can-style SMD package (φ12.5 × 21L), surface mount, packaged in embossed carrier taping for automated placement; surface-mount land size 12.8 × 12.8 mm.
- AEC-Q200 Rated — Listed rating AEC-Q200 for qualification relevant to automotive component requirements.
Typical Applications
- Automotive electronic modules — For automotive assemblies that require a 68 µF, 160 V surface-mount aluminum electrolytic capacitor with AEC-Q200 qualification.
- High-voltage board-mounted systems — Suitable where a compact, high-voltage SMD electrolytic capacitor is required on the PCB.
- Temperature-stressed environments — Applications that need capacitors rated to operate across −40°C to +85°C with a defined 2000-hour endurance at 85°C.
Unique Advantages
- High-voltage SMD solution: 160 V rating in a φ12.5 × 21 mm SMD can provides high-voltage capability in a compact, board-mountable form.
- Dual-frequency ripple capability: Specified ripple currents for both 120 Hz and 10 kHz (500 mA / 800 mA) accommodate a range of ripple profiles without overstatement.
- Defined endurance: 2000-hour life at 85°C gives a clear reliability baseline for thermal-stressed designs.
- Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 listing supports selection for automotive electronic assemblies where that qualification is required.
- Assembly-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping facilitates automated placement for volume production.
- Predictable electrical characteristics: Specified tanδ (0.2 at 20°C/120 Hz) and leakage current (535.2 µA) enable tighter design margins and verification.
