UVP1C332MHD

The UVP1C332MHD is a bi‑polar aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UVP series, designed as a miniature, radial‑lead, standard type capacitor for general-purpose and entertainment electronics applications. It provides 3.3 mF (3300 µF) capacitance at a 16 V rating with a compact φ18 × 35.5 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing for through‑hole mounting.

Engineered for reliable filtering and AC‑coupled circuits, the UVP1C332MHD combines a measured tanδ of 0.26 (20°C, 120 Hz), defined ripple current ratings, and a 2000‑hour endurance at 85°C to meet sustained performance needs in production designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 3.3 mF (3300 µF) nominal capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for predictable energy storage and decoupling performance.
• Bi‑Polar Construction — Bi‑polarized design suitable for applications that require no polarity marking and AC bias operation.
• Loss Characteristics — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) 0.26 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz, specified for this capacitance and voltage combination.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Low‑frequency ripple current 1.98 A at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 2.277 A at 10 kHz, supporting sustained AC ripple handling.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1584 µA (after rated voltage application as defined in product data) for predictable quiescent behavior.
• Endurance and Temperature Range — Rated for 2000 hours at 85°C with polarity inversion every 250 hours per series endurance conditions; operating range −40°C to +85°C.
• Compact Radial Package — Can dimensions φ18 × 35.5 mm, radial lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm), suitable for through‑hole PCB layouts; available in bulk or bag packing.
• Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction per provided product data.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Designed as part of Nichicon’s standard bi‑polar series for entertainment electronics where AC‑capable electrolytic capacitance is required.
• General‑Purpose Electronic Circuits — Useful in general‑purpose boards that require stable capacitance, AC operation capability, and through‑hole mounting.
• AC‑Coupled and Signal Path Circuits — Bi‑polar construction supports applications where polarity reversal or AC coupling is present.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 1.98 A (120 Hz) and 2.277 A (10 kHz) provide defined capability for AC stress in filtering and coupling applications.
• Bi‑polar flexibility: Bi‑polarized design allows use in circuits without fixed polarity, simplifying designs that include AC signals or polarity inversion.
• Defined endurance: 2000 hours at 85°C with specified polarity inversion intervals gives a clear reliability baseline for thermal and operational planning.
• Compact footprint for through‑hole mounting: φ18 × 35.5 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing supports dense PCB layouts while retaining robust leaded attachment.
• Regulated loss performance: tanδ specified at 0.26 (20°C, 120 Hz) enables predictable dissipation characteristics for system thermal design.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS status supports deployment in markets requiring restricted‑substance compliance.
