UVP0J221MPD

The UVP0J221MPD is a Nichicon UVP series miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor specified at 220 µF and 6.3 V. It uses a bi-polar radial-lead can package engineered for general-purpose and entertainment electronics applications.

Key value propositions include a compact φ8 × 11.5 mm package with 3.5 mm lead spacing, defined ripple-current capabilities at low and high frequency, and a 2000-hour endurance rating at 85°C for stable performance in compact, low-voltage designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 6.3 V and capacitance tolerance of ±20% (at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Bi-Polar Construction — UVP series bi-polarized design intended for applications addressed by the UVP family.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current rated at 215 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple capability listed as 322.5 mA (10 kHz), supporting both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Specified leakage current of 41.58 µA (measured at 20°C after 5 minutes) and a dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.26 at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Endurance & Temperature Range — Endurance specification of 2000 hours at 85°C (with polarity inversion every 250 hours for the endurance test) and operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C.
• Compact Radial Can Package — Small footprint φ8 × 11.5 mm can with 3.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting; available in bulk/bag packing.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Designed as part of the UVP series for use in consumer entertainment devices where bi-polar electrolytic performance is required.
• General-Purpose Circuits — Suitable for general-purpose low-voltage circuitry requiring reliable capacitance, defined leakage, and controlled dissipation.
• Space-Constrained PCB Designs — Compact φ8 × 11.5 mm can and radial lead format make this part appropriate for applications with limited board area and simple through-hole assembly.

Unique Advantages

• Compact footprint: φ8 × 11.5 mm dimensions and 3.5 mm lead spacing enable placement in tight layouts without sacrificing capacitance.
• Defined ripple handling: Rated ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz provide predictable behavior across low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Controlled leakage and dissipation: Specified leakage current (41.58 µA) and tan δ (0.26) values support predictable circuit behavior for low-voltage designs.
• Elevated-temperature endurance: 2000-hour life at 85°C provides a quantifiable reliability metric for thermal design and lifecycle planning.
• Bi-polarized series characteristics: UVP series bi-polar construction addresses applications requiring the UVP family’s bipolar performance profile.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance simplifies environmental requirements for product designs.
