UUN1C102MNQ6MS

The UUN1C102MNQ6MS is a chip-type, bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UUN series, designed for surface mounting on high-density PC boards. It provides 1 mF capacitance at a 16 V rating and is intended for general-purpose applications that require bipolar operation over a wide temperature range.

Built for automated assembly (carrier-tape compatible) and elevated-temperature endurance, this part targets designs that need higher capacitance in an SMD can package with documented ripple-current and lifetime characteristics.

Key Features

• Electrical rating: 1 mF capacitance at 16 V rated voltage with a tolerance of ±20% (−20%~20%).
• Bi‑polarized operation: Bi‑polarized construction enables operation without polarity restrictions, suitable for AC coupling and bipolar signal or power circuits.
• Operating temperature & endurance: Rated for −55°C to +105°C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 105°C (polarity inverted every 250 hours during test).
• Ripple current performance: Rated ripple current of 670 mA at 120 Hz and 770.5 mA at 10 kHz, with frequency coefficients provided in the series datasheet for different capacitances.
• Leakage current specification: After 1 minute’s application of rated voltage at 20°C, leakage current is not more than 0.03 × C × V (µA) as defined in the UUN datasheet.
• SMD can package for automated assembly: Chip-type radial can in an SMD form factor, designed for use with automatic mounting machines supplied with carrier tape; recommended PCB land size: 1.63 × 1.63 cm.
• Tangent of loss angle (tan δ): Series specification lists a maximum tan δ of 0.18 at 16 V (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• RoHS compliant: Conforms to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Power supply decoupling and filtering: 1 mF capacitance and specified ripple‑current ratings make this capacitor suitable for bulk decoupling and smoothing in low-voltage power rails.
• AC coupling and bipolar signal circuits: Bi‑polarized design allows use in circuits where polarity can reverse, such as AC coupling or bipolar amplifier stages.
• High-density PCB designs: Chip-type SMD can construction and carrier-tape compatibility support automated placement in compact, high-density assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• High capacitance in an SMD can: 1 mF capacity provides larger stored energy in a chip-type package for designs constrained by board area.
• Bipolarized flexibility: Eliminates polarity restrictions for applications that require AC or reverse-polarity tolerance.
• Documented high-temperature endurance: 2000 hours rating at 105°C provides a defined reliability metric for elevated-temperature applications.
• Specified ripple performance: Explicit ripple-current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow engineers to size and model thermal and ripple behavior accurately.
• Assembly-friendly form factor: Designed for surface mount assembly with carrier tape feeding to streamline automated production.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports environmental compliance requirements in product design.
