UUL1C220MCL1GS

The UUL1C220MCL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UUL series, designed for surface mounting on high-density PC boards. It delivers 22 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 16 V with a ±20% tolerance and is optimized for applications requiring long life at elevated temperature.

This part is AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU.(EU)2015/863), making it suitable for demanding environments where regulated endurance and predictable electrical characteristics are required.

Key Features

• Electrical characteristics — 22 µF capacitance at 16 V with ±20% tolerance (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Long-life endurance — Rated load life of 5000 hours at +105°C; endurance limits in datasheet specify allowable capacitance change and leakage after the specified life.
• Operating temperature range — Specified for −40°C to +105°C operation to accommodate wide temperature environments.
• Ripple current performance — Defined ripple current of 30 mA at 120 Hz and 45 mA at 10 kHz for known AC stress handling.
• Leakage current — After 2 minutes’ application of rated voltage at 20°C, leakage current is not more than 0.01 CV or 3 µA (whichever is greater), enabling predictable standby characteristics.
• Package and mounting — Chip-type radial can SMD package sized L: 5.8 × D: 5 mm with recommended land pattern 5.3 × 5.3 mm, built for surface-mount installation on compact PCBs.
• Qualification and compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU.(EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — For modules requiring AEC‑Q200 qualification and long-term operation at elevated temperatures.
• High-density surface-mount designs — Suited to compact PCBs where a small chip-type electrolytic capacitor is needed.
• Temperature-stressed systems — Applications that operate across −40°C to +105°C and require components specified for prolonged high-temperature loading.

Unique Advantages

• Durable high-temperature life: 5000-hour load life at +105°C supports predictable aging and maintenance planning.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating enables selection for automotive-grade designs where that qualification is required.
• Compact SMD form factor: Chip-type radial can package (5.8 × 5 mm) and small recommended land pattern minimize PCB area for high-density layouts.
• Known ripple-handling data: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow designers to size components against measured AC stress.
• Controlled leakage behavior: Leakage limit of 0.01 CV or 3 µA after 2 minutes at 20°C provides repeatable DC characteristics.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance (2011/65/EU.(EU)2015/863) supports restricted-substance requirements.
