UVK0J682MHD

The UVK0J682MHD from Nichicon is a UVK series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can package. It provides 6.8 mF (6800 µF) capacitance at a 6.3 V rating with a compact φ12.5 × 25 mm body and 5 mm lead spacing, designed for general-purpose electronic power applications.

Engineered for compact energy storage and filtering at low voltages, this capacitor combines high capacitance, defined ripple-current capability, and a -40°C to 85°C operating range to support embedded and consumer electronic designs requiring bulk decoupling and smoothing.

Key Features

• High Capacitance: 6.8 mF (6800 µF) nominal capacitance, suitable for bulk energy storage and smoothing in low-voltage circuits.
• Low-Voltage Rating: Rated at 6.3 V, providing a component choice for 5 V and similar low-voltage rails.
• Radial Lead Can Package: Radial lead mounting with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance) for through-hole assembly and straightforward PCB placement.
• Compact Miniature Size: φ12.5 × 25 mm (diameter × length) offers a smaller case footprint consistent with the UVK series’ miniature sizing.
• Performance Parameters: Specified tan δ of 0.38 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), leakage current of 1285.2 µA, and capacitance tolerance of ±20%.
• Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 1.92 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.208 A (10 kHz) to support AC ripple handling in power supplies.
• Endurance: Rated life of 2000 hours at 85°C, with specified endurance recovery measured after restoration to 20°C.
• RoHS Compliance (Series): The UVK series is compliant with the RoHS directive as indicated in the series datasheet.
• Packaging Options: Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing to accommodate assembly and inventory preferences.
• Production Status: Mass production availability for volume designs and supply planning.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Power Supplies — Bulk decoupling and smoothing on low-voltage rails where 6.3 V rating and high capacitance provide ride-through and transient absorption.
• Consumer Electronics — Energy storage and ripple suppression in compact consumer devices that require a small case and significant capacitance.
• Board-Level Filtering — Local reservoir capacitor for converters and linear regulators where high capacitance and defined ripple-current specs help stabilize outputs.

Unique Advantages

• High Energy Density in a Small Footprint: 6800 µF in a φ12.5 × 25 mm can reduces board area for designs constrained by space.
• Designed for Low-Voltage Rails: The 6.3 V rating aligns with common low-voltage systems, enabling direct use on 5 V and related supplies.
• Measured Ripple Performance: Specified low- and high-frequency ripple currents (1.92 A at 120 Hz and 2.208 A at 10 kHz) let you match component selection to expected ripple conditions.
• Defined Lifetime and Reliability Data: 2000 hours at 85°C endurance rating provides a clear expectation for long-term performance under elevated temperature conditions.
• Series-Level RoHS Compliance: UVK series compliance with RoHS supports regulatory requirements for assemblies.
