UVR2C221MHD

The UVR2C221MHD is a Nichicon UVR-series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can package. It provides 220 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating with a compact φ16 × 35.5 mm footprint and 7.5 mm lead spacing.

Designed for general‑purpose and entertainment electronics applications, this polarized radial capacitor delivers defined ripple handling, a wide operating temperature range, and a 2000‑hour endurance rating at 85°C for reliable performance in through‑hole designs.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 220 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 160 V rated voltage for higher‑voltage circuits.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 800 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 1.28 A (10 kHz) to support smoothing and decoupling across a range of frequencies.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1508 µA after rated voltage application, suitable for typical power‑supply and general‑purpose uses.
• Reliability / Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 85°C with capacitance, tan δ and leakage performance limits defined by the series endurance specification.
• Operating Range — Temperature rating from −40°C to +85°C for use in a variety of ambient conditions.
• Mechanical / Package — Radial lead can, size φ16 × 35.5 mm, lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm), polarized for through‑hole assembly and bulk or bag packing options.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.

Typical Applications

• Entertainment Electronics — Suited to power conditioning and decoupling tasks in consumer audio/video and related entertainment equipment, consistent with the UVR series positioning.
• General‑Purpose Circuits — Use where a polarized aluminum electrolytic with 160 V rating and compact radial package is required.
• Space‑Constrained Through‑Hole Designs — Compact φ16 × 35.5 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing make it practical for dense or legacy through‑hole assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• High‑Voltage Capability: 160 V rating enables use in higher‑voltage power rails compared with lower‑voltage electrolytics.
• Defined Dual‑Frequency Ripple Handling: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz provide predictable performance across common low and high ripple frequencies.
• Endurance Rated: 2000 hours at 85°C offers a measurable reliability baseline for thermal endurance planning.
• Compact Through‑Hole Form Factor: φ16 × 35.5 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing supports retrofit and new designs requiring radial mounting.
• RoHS Compliant & Mass Production: Environmentally compliant construction with mass production availability for volume deployment.
