UVK2C220MPD

The UVK2C220MPD is a Nichicon UVK-series radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor specified at 22 µF and 160 V. It is a polarized, miniature-sized component designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require a compact, high-voltage electrolytic capacitor with defined endurance and ripple performance.

Key capabilities include low- and high-frequency ripple handling, a rated operating range from −40 °C to 85 °C, and a qualified endurance of 2000 hours at 85 °C. The part is offered in bulk/bag packaging for standard production use and is RoHS compliant.

Key Features

• Electrical Rating — 22 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 160 V and polarization indicated for correct orientation in circuits.
• Capacitance Tolerance — Specified tolerance of −20% to +20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C, matching common specification practices for electrolytic parts.
• Loss Tangent (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.20 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz to characterize equivalent-series loss under standard test conditions.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current 130 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 208 mA at 10 kHz, allowing selection based on AC stress conditions.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 240.8 µA (measured under the product’s test conditions), enabling predictable standby and leakage performance.
• Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 85 °C with specified limits: capacitance change within ±20%, tanδ up to 200% of initial specified value, and leakage current not exceeding the initial specified value after the endurance test.
• Mechanical & Mounting — Radial lead, polarized can with physical dimensions approximately φ10 × 12.5 mm (L) and a lead spacing of 5.0 mm (±0.5 mm).
• Packaging & Production — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; part status listed as mass production. RoHS compliant per series documentation.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics — Suited for designs that require a compact, polarized radial aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 22 µF and 160 V with documented endurance and ripple performance.
• Board-Level Power Assemblies — Appropriate where a radial-lead, can-style capacitor with a 5 mm lead spacing and defined leakage/tolerance characteristics is required for assembly-level mounting.
• Industrial and Commercial Equipment — Applicable in equipment operating within −40 °C to 85 °C that needs a miniature-sized electrolytic capacitor with a 2000-hour endurance rating at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, Miniature Form Factor — φ10 × 12.5 mm size provides one-rank smaller case sizing within the UVK series, saving PCB space where a high-voltage electrolytic is required.
• Clearly Specified Endurance — 2000 hours at 85 °C with defined limits for capacitance, tanδ, and leakage current supports predictable long-term behavior in thermal stress conditions.
• Dual-Frequency Ripple Ratings — Listed ripple current values at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz help match the part to low- and high-frequency AC stress conditions in designs.
• Measured Loss and Leakage Data — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ = 0.20 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and a specified leakage current provide concrete parameters for circuit-level loss and standby current budgeting.
• RoHS Compliant and Production-Ready — Series-level RoHS compliance and mass-production status simplify procurement and regulatory planning.

Why Choose UVK2C220MPD?

The UVK2C220MPD balances a compact radial-can package with clear electrical and endurance specifications: 22 µF at 160 V, defined ripple current at multiple frequencies, and a 2000-hour rating at 85 °C. Its small footprint and 5 mm lead spacing make it practical for board-level assemblies that need a polarized aluminum electrolytic with predictable leakage and loss characteristics.

This part is suitable for engineers and buyers specifying general-purpose electrolytic capacitors where verified endurance, miniature sizing, and RoHS compliance are required. The Nichicon UVK-series documentation provides the measurable parameters needed for reliable component selection and lifecycle planning.
