UUR1A221MCL6GS

The UUR1A221MCL6GS from Nichicon is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 220 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating in a compact surface-mount can package. It is designed for use on high-density PC boards and is compatible with automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape.

This part is AEC-Q200 rated and RoHS compliant, with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C and an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 85 °C. Note: this product is scheduled to be discontinued and is not recommended for new designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF rated capacitance with a 10 V working voltage and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage in compact SMD form.
• Chip SMD Package — Radial can, SMD chip type packaged for surface mounting on high-density PC boards; nominal dimensions L: 7.7 mm × D: 6.3 mm.
• Mounting Compatibility — Designed for automatic mounting machines fed with carrier tape to support high-volume assembly.
• Electrical Performance — Provided ripple current specifications: 173 mA at 120 Hz and 224.9 mA at 10 kHz, supporting smoothing and decoupling duties within those limits.
• Temperature & Lifetime — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C operation with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC-Q200 rated and RoHS (2011/65/EU,(EU)2015/863) compliant.
• Polarized Construction — Polarized electrolytic design for DC applications requiring polarity-aware capacitors.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suitable where AEC-Q200 qualification is required for automotive modules and control units.
• High-Density SMD Assemblies — Compact chip form factor fits tightly spaced PCB layouts where higher capacitance is needed.
• Automated Production Lines — Carrier-tape compatibility enables efficient pick-and-place assembly in volume manufacturing.

Unique Advantages

• High Capacitance in a Chip SMD — 220 µF provides substantial energy storage while remaining in a compact SMD can, reducing board area compared with larger discrete options.
• AEC-Q200 Qualification — Meets AEC-Q200 requirements, supporting use in automotive applications that reference that standard.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to applicable RoHS directives for regulatory compliance in restricted-substance markets.
• Designed for Automated Assembly — Carrier-tape compatible packaging streamlines integration into automated pick-and-place processes.
• Specified Endurance — 2000 hours at 85 °C endurance rating enables designers to evaluate long-term behavior under elevated temperature stress.

Why Choose UUR1A221MCL6GS?

The UUR1A221MCL6GS offers a practical balance of capacitance, compact SMD packaging, and automotive-oriented qualification, making it suitable for repair, maintenance, or continuation of legacy designs that require an AEC-Q200 rated electrolytic capacitor. Its carrier-tape compatibility and defined electrical and thermal specifications simplify integration into automated, high-density assemblies.

Because this product is scheduled to be discontinued and is not recommended for new designs, it is best suited for applications where this exact form-factor and specification are required to maintain existing product lines or assemblies.
