UVK2A100MDD

The UVK2A100MDD is a Nichicon UVK-series radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor with 10 µF capacitance and a 100 V rated voltage. It is a miniature-sized, polarized electrolytic designed for general-purpose circuitry that requires compact, through-hole capacitor solutions.

Key value comes from its compact φ5 × 11 mm can, low leakage, and defined endurance specification: 2000 hours at 85°C. The part is RoHS compliant and offered in bulk or bag packing for manual assembly and prototyping.

Key Features

• Electrical characteristics — 10 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance −20% to +20%, rated at 100 V.
• Loss and leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz; specified leakage current 30 µA.
• Ripple current capability — Low-frequency ripple current 70 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 140 mA at 10 kHz.
• Mechanical / Mounting — Radial lead, polarized can with dimensions φ5 × 11 mm and lead spacing 2.0 mm (±0.5 mm).
• Operating environment — Rated operating temperature range −40°C to +85°C with endurance specified as 2000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage.
• Compliance and packaging — RoHS compliant; available in Bulk (no terminal forming) or Bag packing.
• Series form factor — Part of the UVK miniature-sized series (one rank smaller case sizes than UVR).
• Product status — End Of Life.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power filtering — Provides bulk capacitance and smoothing in circuits up to the 100 V rating, leveraging 10 µF capacitance and defined ripple current specs.
• Compact through-hole designs — Small φ5 × 11 mm can and 2.0 mm lead spacing suit space-constrained PCB layouts that require radial-lead components.
• Prototype and manual assembly — Supplied in bulk or bag packing for easy handling during prototyping, bench repairs, and low-volume builds.

Unique Advantages

• Compact miniature package — φ5 × 11 mm can reduces PCB footprint compared with larger electrolytic options, enabling denser board layouts.
• 100 V rating — Higher voltage capability expands applicability to circuits that operate above common low-voltage rails while maintaining a compact package.
• Low leakage — Specified leakage current of 30 µA helps minimize standby losses in circuits sensitive to leakage.
• Defined endurance — 2000 hours at 85°C under rated voltage provides an explicit reliability expectation for thermal and voltage stress conditions.
• Through-hole mounting simplicity — Radial leads and standard 2.0 mm spacing simplify insertion and soldering for conventional assembly processes.
• RoHS compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements for restricted substances in many electronic assemblies.
