Overview of UVC2G120MPD – Ultra‑Miniature Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 400 V, 12 µF
The UVC2G120MPD is an ultra‑miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can package designed for compact power circuits. It provides 12 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating and is optimized for adapter and general‑purpose power applications where high voltage handling, small footprint, and reliable performance over a wide temperature range are required.
Key attributes include a compact 8 × 20 mm case, radial lead mounting with 3.5 mm lead spacing, and an operating temperature range of –40 °C to +105 °C, making it suitable for dense power supply layouts and space‑constrained adapter designs.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 12 µF nominal capacitance at 400 V rating with ±20% tolerance, supporting high‑voltage smoothing and energy storage in adapter and power supply circuits.
- Compact Package — Ultra‑miniature radial can (φ8 × 20 mm) with 3.5 mm lead spacing and seated height suitable for tight PCB layouts.
- Temperature & Lifetime — Rated for operation from –40 °C to +105 °C with an endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C under rated conditions.
- Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple current of 120 mA at 120 Hz (105 °C) and 180 mA at 10 kHz for handling AC ripple in switching and rectifier circuits.
- Reliability Parameters — Leakage current specified as I = 0.04CV + 100 µA (after 1 minute at 20 °C) and a maximum tan δ of 0.25 at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
- Mounting & Polarity — Polarized radial‑lead mounting for through‑hole assemblies; sleeve marking in white on dark brown for polarity and identification.
- RoHS Compliance — Manufactured in compliance with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- Adapter Circuits — Compact smoothing and energy storage for power adapters and small external power supplies where board space is limited.
- General Power Filtering — Filtering and decoupling in rectifier outputs and DC rails for compact power modules.
- Compact Power Supplies — Use in space‑constrained power supply designs that require 400 V working voltage and moderate ripple handling.
Unique Advantages
- Space‑efficient form factor: The 8 × 20 mm radial can provides high voltage capability in an ultra‑miniature footprint to reduce PCB area.
- High voltage rating: 400 V nominal voltage enables use directly on high‑voltage rails common in adapter and power conversion circuits.
- Wide operating temperature: –40 °C to +105 °C rating supports applications across varied thermal environments without sacrificing endurance.
- Defined endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C under rated ripple and bias provides predictable life performance for deployment in long‑running power systems.
- Measurable leakage and loss specs: Specified leakage current formula and tan δ (max. 0.25) allow designers to budget insulation and loss characteristics precisely.
- RoHS compliant: Conforms to current RoHS requirements, easing environmental compliance in product assemblies.
