Overview of UVY1C153MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 15,000 µF, 16 V

The UVY1C153MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor delivering 15,000 µF nominal capacitance at a 16 V rating in a compact φ18 × 40 mm can. Designed for general-purpose electronic designs, it offers high bulk capacitance and defined ripple-handling across low and high frequencies.

Key practical attributes include a wide operating temperature range from −55 °C to 105 °C, a rated endurance of 2,000 hours at 105 °C, RoHS compliance, and packaging options for bulk or bag packing—making it suitable for production deployments where reliable energy storage and smoothing are needed.

Key Features

  • High Capacitance — 15,000 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, providing substantial bulk energy storage and smoothing for general-purpose circuits.
  • 16 V Rated Voltage — Designed for applications requiring a 16 V working voltage.
  • Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 2.21 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 2.542 A (10 kHz), supporting both power-line smoothing and higher-frequency decoupling requirements.
  • Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 7,200 µA for predictable standby and bias behavior.
  • Wide Temperature and Endurance — Operating range −55 °C to 105 °C with 2,000 hours rated life at 105 °C, enabling sustained performance in elevated-temperature environments.
  • Compact Radial-Lead Package — φ18 × 40 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), radial lead mounting for through-hole assemblies and straightforward PCB layout.
  • RoHS Compliant & Production Ready — Meets RoHS requirements and is listed as mass production status, with bulk and bag packing options for manufacturing needs.

Typical Applications

  • Power Supply Filtering — Bulk capacitance and rated ripple currents make the UVY1C153MHD suitable for smoothing and reservoir duties in general-purpose DC power supplies.
  • Energy Storage & Hold-up — High capacitance provides reserve charge capacity for transient compensation and short-term hold-up requirements in electronic systems.
  • Industrial Control & Instrumentation — Wide −55 °C to 105 °C operating range and 2,000-hour endurance at 105 °C support use in industrial assemblies and instrumentation where elevated temperatures occur.
  • General-Purpose Electronics — Radial-lead packaging and standard lead spacing facilitate integration into a wide range of through-hole designs for consumer or professional equipment.

Unique Advantages

  • Large Capacitance in a Compact Can — 15,000 µF in a φ18 × 40 mm package reduces board area compared with larger form-factor options while delivering significant energy storage.
  • Defined Ripple Performance Across Frequencies — Explicit low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (2.21 A @120 Hz, 2.542 A @10 kHz) allow designers to size the capacitor based on the target operating spectrum.
  • Wide Temperature Endurance — −55 °C to 105 °C range plus 2,000 hours rated life at 105 °C provides predictable aging and performance in thermally demanding environments.
  • Through-Hole Simplicity — Radial lead and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify prototyping and repairability in through-hole assemblies.
  • Production-Friendly Packaging — Available in bulk and bag packing to accommodate assembly-line and low-volume manufacturing workflows.
  • Regulatory Compliance — RoHS-compliant construction supports environmental and regulatory requirements for many projects.

Why Choose UVY1C153MHD?

The UVY1C153MHD positions itself as a practical solution when substantial bulk capacitance, predictable ripple-handling, and through-hole mounting are required.
