UUX1C221MNL6GS

The UUX1C221MNL6GS is a surface-mount, chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UUX series. It delivers 220 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ8×10L SMD can designed for space-constrained board designs.

Engineered for robust temperature performance and long-term endurance, this part is specified for automotive applications and combines wide operating range (−55°C to 105°C), rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C, and AEC-Q200 qualification to support demanding environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a rated voltage of 16 V for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to 105°C with an endurance specification of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• Automotive Qualification — AEC-Q200 rating to meet qualification expectations for automotive electronic designs.
• Ripple Current Handling — Low-frequency ripple current 307 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 399.1 mA (10 kHz) to reduce voltage ripple and thermal stress in power circuits.
• Leakage & Loss — Measured leakage current of 105.6 µA and tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.16 at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting low-standby-current and predictable dissipation behavior.
• Package & Mounting — φ8×10L radial can in an SMD format with embossed carrier taping for automated placement; recommended surface-mount land size 8.3×8.3 mm.
• Reliability — Endurance and shelf-life characteristics defined per the UUX series datasheet, with resistance to soldering heat and post-storage voltage treatment provisions.

Typical Applications

• Automotive control modules — Bulk decoupling and smoothing in electronic control units where AEC-Q200 qualification and wide temperature range are required.
• Infotainment and telematics — Power filtering for audio, display and communication systems that require stable capacitance over temperature and time.
• Body electronics and sensor interfaces — Energy storage and ripple suppression for modules exposed to varying temperatures and continuous operation.

Unique Advantages

• Compact SMD can — φ8×10L package minimizes board footprint while providing 220 µF of capacitance for space-limited designs.
• Wide operating temperature — −55°C to 105°C rating supports deployment across a broad range of environmental conditions.
• Automotive-ready qualification — AEC-Q200 rating aligns the part with automotive design and qualification processes.
• Long rated life at elevated temperature — 2000 hours at 105°C gives predictable lifetime behavior for continuous high-temperature operation.
• High ripple capability — Defined low- and high-frequency ripple current specifications reduce stress and improve thermal performance in power circuits.
• Low leakage and controlled dissipation — Leakage current (105.6 µA) and tan δ (0.16 at 120 Hz, 20°C) support stable low-current operation and predictable losses.
