UVK1V101MED

The UVK1V101MED is a Nichicon UVK series miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can package. It provides 100 µF nominal capacitance at a 35 V rating with a compact φ6.3 × 11 mm footprint and 2.5 mm lead spacing for through-hole, general-purpose power and filtering applications.

Key characteristics include a tanδ (loss angle) of 0.14 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), rated ripple current up to 315 mA at high frequency (10 kHz), a temperature range of −40°C to 85°C, and an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85°C. Status: End Of Life.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 100 µF capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 35 V rated voltage suitable for low-voltage DC rails.
• Loss and Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) specified at 0.14 (20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current 105 µA, enabling predictable loss and leakage behavior in designs.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 210 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 315 mA (10 kHz) for smoothing and decoupling in switching and linear circuits.
• Reliability & Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 85°C with defined endurance limits: capacitance change within ±20%, tanδ within 200% of initial, and leakage current not exceeding initial specified value after test.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead, polarized can package with φ6.3 × 11 mm body and 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for straightforward through-hole assembly.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant per provided product data.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit manual assembly or small-volume builds.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on low-voltage DC rails where 35 V rating and 100 µF capacitance provide stable energy storage.
• Switching Regulator Support — Input/output filtering for DC–DC converters, using the specified ripple current ratings to handle switching frequencies up to high audio/kHz regions.
• General-Purpose Electronics — Replacement or initial selection for compact, through-hole consumer and industrial boards requiring a small form-factor electrolytic capacitor.

Unique Advantages

• Compact Footprint: φ6.3 × 11 mm can size delivers 100 µF capacitance in a small through-hole package to save board area.
• Measured Loss Characteristics: Specified tanδ (0.14 at 20°C, 120 Hz) provides predictable AC loss for thermal and stability calculations.
• Frequency Versatility: Defined ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz support designs that encounter a range of ripple frequencies.
• Long Endurance Rating: 2000 hours at 85°C endurance characterization allows designers to evaluate lifecycle performance under elevated temperature conditions.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS directives as stated in the product data for environmental compliance considerations.
• Simple Through-Hole Integration: Radial leads and standard 2.5 mm spacing simplify assembly and prototyping on conventional PCBs.
