UUQ1A101MCL6GS

The UUQ1A101MCL6GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UUQ series, engineered for audio-focused and automotive electronics requiring compact, surface-mount electrolytic capacitance. It is a polarized SMD can designed for automated assembly and long-term operation across a wide temperature range.

Key value comes from its combination of 100 µF capacitance at 10 V, wide operating temperature (-40 °C to +105 °C), AEC-Q200 qualification, and RoHS compliance, making it suitable for designs that demand reliable filtering and decoupling in space-constrained, high-reliability applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — Rated 100 µF at 10 V, with capacitance tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Chip-type SMD Can — Radial, can-style surface-mount package designed for automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from -40 °C to +105 °C, supporting demanding ambient conditions.
• AEC-Q200 Qualified — Delivered to an automotive-grade reliability standard (AEC-Q200), suitable for electronics requiring that qualification.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Endurance — Rated for 1000 hours at 105 °C with specified endurance limits for capacitance, tan δ and leakage current.
• Electrical Performance — Leakage current limited to 0.03 CV or 4 µA (whichever is greater) after 1 minute at rated voltage and 20 °C; tan δ (10 V) max 0.26 (120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Ripple Current — Specified ripple handling of 90 mA at 120 Hz and 135 mA at 10 kHz for effective smoothing in low-power circuits.
• Board Land — Recommended surface-mount land size L: 8.3 × W: 8.3 mm to support reliable PCB mounting.

Typical Applications

• Audio Equipment — Chip-type acoustic series construction is suited for audio circuitry requiring compact electrolytic filtering and decoupling.
• Automotive Electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and -40 °C to +105 °C operation match in-vehicle electronics and control modules that need automotive-grade capacitors.
• Compact SMD Power Filtering — Small can package and defined PCB land pattern make it useful for space-constrained power-supply filtering and decoupling on compact PCBs.
• Automated Assembly Designs — Designed for carrier-tape fed automatic placement, simplifying high-volume assembly processes.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive-Grade Reliability: AEC-Q200 qualification provides an industry-recognized baseline for use in automotive and other high-reliability systems.
• Wide Operating Temperature: -40 °C to +105 °C rating supports applications across broad environmental conditions without derating the part selection.
• Tape-Feed Compatibility: Intended for automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape, reducing handling time and improving assembly throughput.
• Defined Endurance: 1000 hours at 105 °C endurance rating yields predictable aging behaviour for long-life applications.
• Low Leakage & Controlled Loss: Leakage current limit and specified tan δ help maintain signal integrity and power efficiency in filtering roles.
• Compact SMD Can Format: Can-style surface-mount package with 8 mm diameter and recommended land pattern minimizes board area while providing electrolytic capacitance.
