Overview of UVY0J153MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 15,000 µF, 6.3 V, Radial Lead
The UVY0J153MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor featuring 15,000 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose power smoothing, bulk energy storage and decoupling in applications that require high capacitance in a compact radial-can package.
Engineered for robust thermal and ripple performance, this part offers high ripple current capability, a wide operating temperature range from −55 °C to +105 °C, and an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 105 °C.
Key Features
- High Capacitance: 15,000 µF (15 mF) nominal capacitance provides substantial bulk energy storage and smoothing at low voltage rails.
- Rated Voltage & Tolerance: 6.3 V rated voltage with ±20% capacitance tolerance for predictable behavior in DC power rails.
- Loss and Leakage Characteristics: Measured tan δ (DF) of 0.56 at 20 °C, 120 Hz, and a leakage current of 2835 µA as specified for this part.
- High Ripple Current Handling: Low-frequency ripple current 1.82 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 2.093 A at 10 kHz to support demanding AC ripple conditions.
- Thermal and Endurance Rating: Operating temperature −55 °C to +105 °C and rated for 2000 hours at 105 °C, supporting long-term operation in elevated temperatures.
- Compact Radial Package: φ16 × 30.5 mm can with radial lead mounting, 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and typical lead diameter 0.8 mm for through-hole assembly.
- Materials & Compliance: Pb-free leadwire and Pb-free PET sleeve (HD configuration) and RoHS-compliant. Packaging options include bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing.
Typical Applications
- Power Supply Bulk Storage: Large capacitance for reservoir and smoothing on low-voltage DC rails in switching and linear supplies.
- Embedded and Industrial Electronics: Bulk decoupling for microcontroller and control-board power buses operating across a wide temperature range.
- Audio Power Stages: Energy reservoir and ripple suppression for power amplifiers and audio electronics requiring high capacitance at low voltage.
- Instrumentation and Control: Filtering and transient support in instrumentation and factory automation where long endurance at elevated temperature is required.
Unique Advantages
- Large Capacitance in a Compact Case: 15,000 µF in a φ16 can provides significant capacitance density for space‑constrained through‑hole designs.
- Designed for Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz help manage heating and extend service life under AC ripple stress.
- Wide Operating Temperature and Proven Endurance: −55 °C to +105 °C operation with 2000 hours endurance at 105 °C supports reliability in demanding thermal environments.
- RoHS and Pb‑free Construction: Pb‑free leadwire and PET sleeve with RoHS compliance aid environmental compliance and assembly requirements.
- Production-Ready Supply: Part is listed as mass production status with standard bulk and bag packaging options to support volume assembly.
