UVP1E102MHD

The UVP1E102MHD is a bi-polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UVP series designed for general-purpose and entertainment electronics. Its bi‑polar construction and radial lead can package make it suitable for circuits that require non-polar capacitors or tolerance for polarity inversion during operation.

Engineered for reliability across a wide ambient range, this capacitor combines 1 mF capacitance at 25 V with robust ripple handling and RoHS compliance to address common filtering, coupling and decoupling needs in consumer and general-purpose electronic designs.

Key Features

• Core Type Bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor suitable for applications that require polarity-neutral performance.
• Capacitance & Voltage 1 mF rated capacitance at 25 V with ±20% tolerance for predictable filtering and energy storage.
• Package & Mounting Radial lead, can package with 7.5 mm lead spacing and compact footprint (L: 2.5 × D: 1.6 cm) for through‑hole PCB assemblies.
• Temperature & Endurance Operating range –40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C (with polarity inversion every 250 hours as per endurance test).
• Ripple Current Performance Rated ripple current of 950 mA at 120 Hz and 1.093 A at 10 kHz to support smoothing and decoupling in power circuits.
• Environmental Compliance Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), meeting current restricted substances requirements.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics Designed for the UVP series’ standard use in entertainment equipment where bi‑polarized capacitors are specified for signal and power circuitry.
• General‑Purpose Filtering Suitable for power-line smoothing, decoupling and bulk storage in general‑purpose electronic assemblies.
• Polarity‑Neutral Circuitry Applicable where polarity inversion may occur, leveraging the bi‑polarized design and endurance test conditions documented for the series.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑Polarized Design: Enables use in circuits that do not maintain a fixed polarity, reducing the need for multiple capacitor types.
• Compact Radial Can: 2.5 × 1.6 cm body and radial lead mounting simplify placement in through‑hole PCBs while conserving board area.
• Documented Ripple Capability: 950 mA at 120 Hz and 1.093 A at 10 kHz provide quantifiable ripple handling for power conditioning tasks.
• Wide Operating Temperature: –40 °C to +85 °C operation supports a broad range of environmental conditions in consumer electronics.
• Endurance Verified: 2000 hours at 85 °C (with periodic polarity inversion during the endurance test) demonstrates long‑term stability under rated stress.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets current RoHS requirements for use in regulated markets and designs.
