Overview of UVK1H680MED – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Radial Lead, 68 µF, 50 V

The UVK1H680MED is a miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can package offering 68 µF capacitance at a 50 V rating. Designed for general-purpose electronic circuits, it combines compact dimensions with defined ripple current capability and a wide operating temperature range for use in small power and signal-conditioning applications.

Its specifications include a -20% to +20% capacitance tolerance, a rated temperature range from -40 °C to 85 °C, and an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C, making it suitable where controlled electrical performance and compact form factor are required.

Key Features

  • Electrical Rating: 68 µF capacitance at a 50 V rated voltage with a capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20% for predictable filtering and energy storage.
  • Loss Performance: Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.12 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, supporting stable AC loss characteristics in typical low-frequency applications.
  • Ripple Current Capability: Low-frequency ripple current 210 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 420 mA at 10 kHz, enabling handling of both mains-frequency and higher-frequency ripple within its rated limits.
  • Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 102 µA for predictable standby and bias current behavior.
  • Endurance and Temperature Range: Rated for 2000 hours at 85 °C and operable from -40 °C to 85 °C, meeting defined long-term stability criteria after endurance testing.
  • Compact Radial Package: Small can size φ6.3 × 11 mm with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through-hole PCB designs; available in bulk or bag packing.
  • Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant as indicated in the product data.
  • Lifecycle Status: Product status noted as End Of Life.

Typical Applications

  • General-purpose circuitry: Used as a general-purpose smoothing and decoupling capacitor in low-current 50 V circuits where a compact radial electrolytic is required.
  • Power-supply filtering: Provides bulk capacitance and ripple handling (120 Hz and 10 kHz ratings) for small power-supply rails and local energy buffering.
  • Embedded and consumer electronics: Fits space-constrained designs that require a miniature radial can with defined endurance and temperature specifications.

Unique Advantages

  • Compact footprint: φ6.3 × 11 mm can size delivers 68 µF in a miniature radial package, saving board area compared with larger electrolytic solutions.
  • Measurable ripple performance: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (210 mA @120 Hz and 420 mA @10 kHz) allow designers to size the capacitor to expected ripple conditions.
  • Wide operating temperature: -40 °C to 85 °C range supports deployment across a variety of ambient conditions while maintaining endurance at 85 °C for 2000 hours.
  • Predictable leakage and loss: Specified leakage current (102 µA) and tan δ (0.12 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) provide clear electrical expectations for bias and AC loss behavior.
  • Through-hole convenience: Radial lead mounting and 2.5 mm lead spacing simplify prototyping and repair-friendly PCB assembly workflows.
  • RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS directive requirements as stated in the product data.

Why Choose UVK1H680MED?

The UVK1H680MED positions itself as a compact, well-characterized aluminum electrolytic solution for designers needing 68 µF at 50 V in a miniature radial format.
