UUQ1C101MCL6GS

The UUQ1C101MCL6GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UUQ series designed for automated surface-mount assembly. It delivers 100 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact SMD can package intended for applications that require wide temperature operation and reliable long-term endurance.

Key value propositions include AEC-Q200 qualification for demanding environments, RoHS compliance, and performance characteristics optimized for audio and precision power-filtering use across −40 °C to +105 °C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance (120 Hz, 20 °C), suitable for bulk decoupling and smoothing in compact power circuits.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from −40 °C to +105 °C with an endurance specification of 1000 hours at 105 °C; capacitance change after endurance is within ±20% per the series specification.
• Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting designs that require recognized component-level reliability and environmental compliance.
• Electrical Performance — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction; ripple current handling of 210 mA at 120 Hz and 315 mA at 10 kHz. Leakage current (per series datasheet) after 1 minute at 20 °C is not more than 0.03 CV or 4 µA, whichever is greater.
• Packaging & Mounting — Chip-type, radial can SMD package suitable for automatic mounting via carrier tape; surface-mount land recommended size L: 8.3 × W: 8.3 mm for this part.
• Acoustic Series Design — Part of the chip-type acoustic series with characteristics tailored for audio equipment and other noise-sensitive power applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suitable for vehicle electronic modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and wide temperature capability are required.
• Audio Equipment — Used in power supply decoupling and smoothing for audio circuits, leveraging the UUQ series’ chip-type acoustic design.
• Compact Power Filtering — Ideal for space-constrained surface-mount designs that need bulk capacitance and moderate ripple-current capability.

Unique Advantages

• AEC-Q200 Qualification: Provides documented component-level reliability for designs targeting demanding environmental conditions.
• Wide Operating Temperature: −40 °C to +105 °C rating supports use across automotive, industrial, and temperature-variable environments.
• Automated Assembly Ready: Chip-type SMD can and carrier-tape compatibility simplify high-volume surface-mount production.
• Measured Ripple Performance: Specified ripple current values at both low and high frequencies (210 mA @120 Hz; 315 mA @10 kHz) help with thermal and EMI planning in power subsystems.
• Endurance-Backed Performance: 1000-hour endurance at 105 °C with defined limits on capacitance change and leakage ensures predictable behavior over life testing.
