Key performance attributes include a compact φ5 × 11 mm package with 2.0 mm lead spacing, an operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C, endurance of 2000 hours at 85 °C, and measured dissipation factor (tanδ) of 0.20 at 20 °C / 120 Hz.

Key Features

• Electrical Characteristics — 22 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 16 V rated voltage, suitable for general-purpose circuit functions requiring polarized capacitance.
• Loss and Measurement — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) specified as 0.20, measured at 20 °C and 120 Hz to assist in AC loss budgeting and design margin calculations.
• Ripple and Leakage — Low-frequency ripple current of 75 mA (120 Hz), high-frequency ripple current of 150 mA (10 kHz), and measured leakage current of 10.56 µA for predictable power-performance behavior.
• Reliability and Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 85 °C with specified limits for capacitance change, tanδ, and leakage current after endurance testing.
• Mechanical and Mounting — Radial lead mounting with 2.0 mm lead spacing and a compact φ5 × 11 mm can (L: 1.1 × D: 0.5 cm) for space-efficient through-hole designs.
• Packaging Options — Supplied in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to accommodate prototyping and production handling preferences.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant, reflecting compliance with applicable lead-free and restricted substance requirements listed in the product data.
• Polarized Component — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction necessitates correct orientation in circuit designs.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics — Suitable for a wide range of general-purpose circuits where compact polarized capacitance is required.
• Entertainment Electronics — Part of the UVR series specified for entertainment electronics applications, offering miniature sizing for space-constrained equipment.
• Through-Hole Assemblies and Prototyping — Radial lead format and small footprint make it appropriate for through-hole PCB assemblies, repairs, and prototype builds.

Unique Advantages

• Compact Can Size — φ5 × 11 mm body provides a small footprint for designs demanding miniaturization without sacrificing capacitance.
• Predictable AC Performance — Specified tanδ at 20 °C / 120 Hz and explicit low/high-frequency ripple current ratings (75 mA at 120 Hz, 150 mA at 10 kHz) support predictable behavior under AC stress.
• Low Leakage — Measured leakage current around 10.56 µA delivers low quiescent loss for applications sensitive to leakage.
• Designed for Elevated Temperature Endurance — Endurance rating of 2000 hours at 85 °C with defined post-test limits supports thermal reliability planning.
• RoHS Compliance — Meets RoHS requirements, simplifying compliance management for lead-free product designs.
• Packaging Flexibility — Available in bulk or bag packing to match manufacturing and prototyping workflows.
