UVP1C101MPD

The UVP1C101MPD is a bi-polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UVP series, designed for general-purpose and entertainment electronics applications. It provides a 100 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact radial can package with through‑hole leads.

Key value propositions include a bi-polar construction for non-polar use, RoHS compliance, predictable performance across –40 °C to 85 °C, and endurance verification under high-temperature stress.

Key Features

• Electrical Specification — 100 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, rated for 16 V application.
• Bi‑Polar Construction — Bi-polarized design suitable for circuits requiring non-polar operation, as defined by the UVP series.
• Ripple Performance — Rated ripple current of 160 mA at 120 Hz and 240 mA at 10 kHz to support AC and ripple-handling in signal and power paths.
• Package and Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package (L: 1.15 × D: 0.8 cm) with 3.5 mm lead spacing for straightforward through-hole PCB integration.
• Operating Range and Lifetime — Specified operating temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Standard bi‑polarized configuration intended for audio, video and other consumer entertainment equipment where non-polar capacitors are required.
• General-Purpose Circuits — Useful in a variety of through‑hole designs for coupling, decoupling or AC applications that benefit from bi‑polar components.
• Prototyping and PCB Through‑Hole Designs — Radial lead package and compact dimensions simplify bench prototyping and assembly in legacy or mixed-technology boards.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑Polarized Capability: Enables use in circuits where polarity can reverse without requiring separate polarity management.
• Compact Radial Package: 1.15 cm × 0.8 cm can size with 3.5 mm lead spacing provides a small footprint for space-constrained through‑hole designs.
• Measured Ripple Ratings: Specified ripple current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz help engineers size the capacitor for expected AC stress.
• High‑Temperature Endurance: Endurance characterized to 2000 hours at 85 °C (with polarity inversion per datasheet), supporting predictable life estimation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in designs targeting modern environmental requirements.
