UVY1C222MPD

The UVY1C222MPD is a Nichicon UVY series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead, through‑hole package. It delivers 2200 µF of capacitance at a 16 V rating and combines a compact φ10 × 20 mm can with rugged operating limits for general‑purpose power‑conditioning duties.

Designed for applications that require bulk energy storage and ripple filtering, this polarized capacitor offers wide operating temperature capability and a long endurance rating that supports reliable operation in demanding environments.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 2200 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 16 V, tolerance −20% to +20%.
• Radial through‑hole package: φ10 × 20 mm aluminum can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and 0.6 mm lead diameter for straightforward PCB mounting and mechanical retention.
• Wide temperature range: Specified for −55 °C to +105 °C operation to support designs exposed to broad thermal conditions.
• Endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C with the rated voltage applied, meeting the UVY series endurance criteria when returned to 20 °C.
• Ripple current capability: Low‑frequency ripple current 710 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 816.5 mA at 10 kHz, enabling effective smoothing in power circuits across a range of switching frequencies.
• Dissipation factor (tan δ): 0.22 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for this part, useful when evaluating AC loss and heating in application.
• Leakage current: Specified leakage current of 1056 µA after voltage application, aiding in system leakage budgeting and standby power calculations.
• Environmental compliance & packaging: RoHS‑compliant; available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit production and prototyping workflows.

Typical Applications

• Power supply filtering: Bulk energy storage and smoothing of DC rails in linear or switching power supplies using the 2200 µF capacitance and rated ripple currents.
• Decoupling for controllers and converters: Local energy reservoir for DC‑DC converters and microcontroller power domains to stabilize voltage during load transients.
• Industrial and consumer electronics: Through‑hole mounting and robust temperature rating make this part suitable for general‑purpose power conditioning in a wide range of assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Compact, high capacitance package: 2200 µF in a φ10 × 20 mm can reduces board area compared with larger cans while preserving usable capacitance.
• Broad temperature capability: −55 °C to +105 °C rating supports designs that must operate across extreme ambient conditions.
• Validated endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105 °C provides a verified life metric for thermal stress and long‑term reliability planning.
• Frequency‑range ripple handling: Separate low‑ and high‑frequency ripple current ratings (710 mA @120 Hz, 816.5 mA @10 kHz) let engineers size capacitors for both line‑frequency and switching applications.
• Through‑hole mounting simplicity: Radial leads with 5 mm spacing and standard lead diameter enable reliable manual assembly and wave/hand solder processes.
• Regulatory compliance and supply options: RoHS compliance and choice of bulk or bag packing support RoHS workflows and flexible procurement quantities.
