UVP1H221MHD

The UVP1H221MHD is a bi-polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, rated 220 µF at 50 V with ±20% tolerance. It is part of Nichicon’s UVP series and targets general-purpose and entertainment electronics applications where a polarized‑neutral (bi‑polar) capacitor is required.

Designed for reliable operation across a wide temperature window (−40°C to 85°C) and long life testing (2000 hours at 85°C), this component balances capacitance density, controlled loss (tan δ), and low leakage for through‑hole assemblies and volume production builds.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 220 µF capacitance at 50 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, tan δ specified at 0.14 and leakage current listed as 330 µA (typical condition as provided).
• Bi‑Polar Construction — Part of Nichicon’s bi‑polarized UVP series, providing a capacitor option for circuits that require non‑polar or polarity‑reversing components.
• Endurance & Temperature — Lifetime rated at 2000 hours at 85°C; operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C to support typical consumer and entertainment environments.
• Ripple Current Capability — Specified ripple current figures include 480 mA at 120 Hz and 720 mA at 10 kHz to address AC and high‑frequency ripple conditions within its ratings.
• Form Factor & Mounting — Radial lead can with dimensions φ12.5 × 25 mm and 5 mm lead spacing, suited for through‑hole assemblies and manual or automated insertion in mass production.
• Compliance & Packaging — RoHS‑compliant and supplied in bulk/bag packing for high‑volume manufacturing workflows.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Standard bi‑polarized UVP series use for consumer entertainment devices requiring non‑polarized capacitor solutions.
• General‑Purpose Electronic Circuits — Suitable where a 220 µF, 50 V bi‑polar radial electrolytic capacitor is specified for signal or power conditioning in general applications.
• Mass‑Production Through‑Hole Assemblies — Bulk/bag packing and radial lead format support efficient placement and assembly in volume production.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑polarized design: Provides a non‑polarized electrolytic option within the UVP series for circuits that encounter polarity variation.
