UVP2A100MPD

The UVP2A100MPD is a bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s UVP series, designed for standard entertainment electronics and general‑purpose electronic circuits. It delivers a 10 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating in a radial‑lead can package, combining bi‑polar operation with industry‑typical endurance and frequency characteristics.

Key design attributes include bi‑polar polarization, RoHS compliance, a wide operating temperature range from –40 °C to +85 °C, and specified ripple current performance across low and high frequencies—making it suitable where polarized and non‑polarized capacitor behavior is required in consumer and entertainment applications.

Key Features

• Bi‑Polarized Construction Designed as a bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor for circuits that require symmetric polarity handling.
• Capacitance & Voltage 10 µF nominal capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
• Temperature & Endurance Operational range of –40 °C to +85 °C with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C (with polarity inversion during endurance testing as specified).
• Ripple Current Performance Specified ripple current: 71 mA at 120 Hz and 142 mA at 10 kHz for this capacitance/voltage combination; frequency coefficients provided in the series datasheet.
• Package & Mounting Radial lead, can‑style package with 3.5 mm lead spacing for through‑hole PCB mounting and straightforward assembly.
• Regulatory Compliance RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Entertainment electronics Intended for use in standard entertainment electronics as identified for the UVP series, where bi‑polar capacitor behavior is required.
• General‑purpose electronic circuits Applicable in a variety of consumer and general‑purpose circuit functions that call for a 10 µF, 100 V bi‑polarized electrolytic capacitor.
• Circuits requiring bi‑polar operation Suitable where bi‑polar polarization is needed for AC coupling or applications that alternate polarity during operation or testing.

Unique Advantages

• Bi‑polar capability: Enables use in circuits that encounter reversing polarity without relying on additional polarity management components.
• High voltage rating: 100 V rating provides headroom for higher‑voltage consumer and entertainment applications compared to lower‑voltage capacitors.
• Documented ripple performance: Measured ripple current figures (71 mA at 120 Hz, 142 mA at 10 kHz) give engineers concrete data for thermal and ripple budgeting.
• Proven endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 85 °C (with polarity inversion during the test) offers a verifiable reliability baseline for design planning.
• RoHS compliant: Meets current RoHS directives, simplifying regulatory alignment for consumer electronics products.
• Through‑hole radial package: Radial can with 3.5 mm lead spacing provides a familiar form factor for PCB assembly and repair scenarios.
