UVK0J103MHD

The UVK0J103MHD is a Nichicon UVK series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can offering 10,000 µF capacitance at 6.3 V. It delivers large bulk capacitance and robust ripple handling in a compact φ16 × 25 mm package for general‑purpose low‑voltage circuits.

Designed for embedded and power applications that require high capacitance density, the UVK0J103MHD combines long endurance (2000 hours at 85°C), wide operating temperature range (−40°C to 85°C), and RoHS compliance for straightforward integration into commercial electronic products.

Key Features

• High Capacitance: 10,000 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance for substantial bulk energy storage and smoothing at low voltage.
• Rated Voltage: 6.3 V nominal rating suitable for low‑voltage power rails and decoupling applications.
• Robust Ripple Handling: Low‑frequency ripple current 2,350 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 2,702.5 mA (10 kHz) to support steady and switching loads.
• Endurance and Temperature Range: 2,000 hours at 85°C rated life with an operating range of −40°C to 85°C for reliable performance in varied environments.
• Compact Radial Can Package: φ16 × 25 mm radial lead can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), enabling compact board layouts and through‑hole mounting.
• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 1,890 µA, characterized after rated voltage application in accordance with Nichicon test conditions.
• RoHS Compliance & Packaging: RoHS‑compliant construction; available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing for flexible procurement and assembly workflows.
• Series Characteristics: Part of the UVK miniature series, which offers one rank smaller case sizes than UVR and series‑level specifications such as tan δ and low‑temperature impedance behavior documented by Nichicon.

Typical Applications

• Low‑Voltage Power Supplies: Bulk energy storage and smoothing for 5 V and other low‑voltage rails where 10,000 µF at 6.3 V provides stable decoupling and energy buffering.
• Switching Regulator Outputs: Suitable for output filtering on DC–DC converters and switching regulators that require substantial ripple current capability.
• Embedded and Consumer Electronics: General‑purpose decoupling and bulk capacitance in compact, through‑hole assemblies where radial lead mounting is preferred.

Unique Advantages

• Large Capacitance in a Small Can: 10,000 µF in a φ16 × 25 mm package enables high capacitance density for space‑constrained designs.
• High Ripple Endurance: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz mean the capacitor can handle both low‑frequency and switching noise environments without frequent replacement.
• Designed for Durability: 2,000‑hour endurance at 85°C provides predictable lifetime behavior for commercial electronics operating at elevated temperatures.
• Through‑Hole Reliability: Radial lead construction and defined lead spacing simplify assembly and provide mechanical robustness in board‑mounted applications.
• Regulatory Compatibility: RoHS compliance supports use in modern production and helps meet environmental procurement requirements.
