UVP1V331MHD

The UVP1V331MHD is a bi-polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UVP series, designed for entertainment electronics and general-purpose consumer applications. Its radial-lead can package and bi-polar construction make it suitable for circuits that require non-polar or polarity-reversing capacitor use.

This component provides 330 μF capacitance at a 35 V rating with a compact footprint and defined ripple-handling capability, balancing size and performance for integration into audio/video and other consumer electronic designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 330 μF nominal capacitance with a 35 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, delivering predictable energy storage for smoothing and coupling tasks.
• Bi-Polar Construction — Bi-polarized design suitable for applications where polarity may invert, aligning with the UVP series intent for entertainment electronics.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead, can-style package with 5 mm lead spacing and a compact size of L: 2 cm × D: 1.25 cm, simplifying through-hole placement and retention on print circuit boards.
• Thermal Range — Rated operating temperature −40°C to +85°C for use across common consumer-environment conditions.
• Ripple Performance — Rated ripple current of 505 mA at 120 Hz and 757.5 mA at 10 kHz, supporting AC and high-frequency ripple environments.
• Reliability & Endurance — Specified lifetime of 2000 hours at 85°C with polarity inversion every 250 hours per the UVP series endurance specification.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), meeting restricted-substance requirements for consumer electronics.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Suited for consumer audio and video equipment within the UVP series’ target market, where bi-polar capacitors are employed in signal and power circuits.
• General-Purpose Consumer Circuits — Useful in a range of through-hole designs that require reliable smoothing, decoupling, or coupling in non-polar or reversing-polarity scenarios.
• AC/Bipolar Circuitry — Applicable where polarity reversal can occur or where a non-polar capacitor form factor is required for circuit topology.

Unique Advantages

• Bi-Polar Design for Polarity Flexibility: Enables use in circuits with polarity reversal without requiring separate polarity-handling components.
• Compact Radial Can: L: 2 cm × D: 1.25 cm package with 5 mm lead spacing offers a small footprint for through-hole assembly while maintaining adequate capacitance.
• Defined Ripple Handling: Rated ripple currents at both 120 Hz (505 mA) and 10 kHz (757.5 mA) give clear performance expectations for power-smoothing and high-frequency applications.
• Endurance Characterized at Elevated Temperature: Specified 2000 hours at 85°C with polarity inversion provides a measurable reliability baseline for design validation.
• RoHS Compliance: Meets applicable RoHS directives, supporting regulatory requirements for consumer electronics products.
• Manufacturer Support: Part of Nichicon’s UVP series, offering datasheet-backed specifications for engineers and purchasing teams.
