UVP1C222MHD

The UVP1C222MHD is a bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UVP series, designed for standard bi‑polarized applications in entertainment and general‑purpose electronics. This radial‑lead, can‑style capacitor delivers 2.2 mF of capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact footprint and is RoHS compliant.

Its construction supports reversible polarity operation and frequent polarity inversion, with specified endurance and ripple current characteristics suitable for circuits that require AC‑compatible capacitance in a through‑hole radial package.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.2 mF nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing a high‑value capacitor option for low‑voltage designs.
• Bi‑Polarized Design — Bi‑polar construction supports reversible polarity, making it suitable for signal coupling and circuits where polarity can invert.
• Radial Lead Package — Radial, can‑type package with 7.5 mm lead spacing and radial lead mounting for reliable through‑hole assembly and mechanical stability.
• Operating Temperature & Lifetime — Rated for −40 °C to +85 °C with a specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 85 °C, compatible with typical entertainment electronics environmental profiles.
• Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 1.51 A at 120 Hz and 1.736 A at 10 kHz, supporting circuits with moderate AC ripple demands; frequency coefficients are defined by the UVP series data.
• Compact Footprint — Body dimensions of L: 3.05 × D: 1.6 cm provide a space‑efficient solution for through‑hole designs where high capacitance is required.
• RoHS Compliant — Manufactured in compliance with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Intended for standard bi‑polarized use in entertainment equipment where reversible polarity capacitors are specified.
• General‑Purpose Electronics — Use in general circuits requiring high capacitance and reversible polarity in a radial through‑hole package.
• AC‑Coupling and Signal Circuits — Suitable where bi‑polarized capacitors are needed to handle alternating or inverting signal conditions.

Unique Advantages

• Reversible polarity capability: Bi‑polarized construction eliminates polarity constraints and simplifies designs that experience polarity inversion.
• High capacitance in a small radial can: 2.2 mF in a compact L × D footprint reduces board real estate compared with multiple discrete parts.
• Defined ripple handling: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz let engineers size the capacitor to meet AC ripple requirements with data tied to the UVP series frequency coefficients.
• Temperature and endurance data: −40 °C to +85 °C operating range and 2000 hours at 85 °C lifetime give clear reliability expectations for product qualification and design validation.
• Through‑hole robustness: Radial lead and can package offer mechanical durability for applications where leaded components are preferred.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports regulatory requirements for modern electronic product development.
