UVY2A221MHD

The UVY2A221MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UVY series, offering 220 µF capacitance at a 100 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose electronic applications that require a compact, high-voltage electrolytic solution with wide operating temperature capability.

Key value propositions include a wide temperature range (−55°C to +105°C), defined ripple current ratings at both low and high frequency, and long endurance (2000 hours at 105°C), making it suitable for designs that demand stable performance over time and temperature.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 100 V rated voltage for higher-voltage circuit nodes.
• Ripple Current Performance — Specified low-frequency ripple current of 390 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 585 mA at 10 kHz, supporting AC ripple handling across common frequencies.
• Leakage Current — Leakage current specified at 660 µA, providing a defined baseline for quiescent current and insulation characteristics.
• Temperature & Endurance — Operating temperature range −55°C to +105°C and endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage.
• Compact Radial Can — Mechanical size φ12.5 × 20 mm (diameter × length) with 5.0 mm lead spacing in a radial-lead can package for through-hole board mounting.
• Pb‑free Configuration & RoHS Compliance — Supplied with Pb‑free leadwire and PET sleeve (HD code) and compliant with RoHS requirements.
• Packaging Options — Available in Bulk (no terminal forming) and Bag packing to support flexible procurement and assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose electronic circuits — Use where 220 µF capacitance and a 100 V rating are required for energy storage and smoothing in through-hole assemblies.
• Higher-voltage power rails — Suitable for decoupling and ripple management on 100 V-rated rails, with defined ripple current specs at 120 Hz and 10 kHz.
• Temperature-challenging environments — Suitable for equipment that must operate across a wide ambient range up to 105°C while maintaining endurance over 2000 hours.

Unique Advantages

• High-voltage capability: 100 V rating enables use on higher-voltage rails without compromising capacitance.
• Defined ripple handling at multiple frequencies: Rated ripple currents (390 mA at 120 Hz, 585 mA at 10 kHz) provide clear design parameters for both low- and high-frequency filtering.
• Wide operating temperature: −55°C to +105°C range supports deployment in diverse thermal conditions.
• Long endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C gives predictable lifetime behavior for thermal stress scenarios.
• Compact radial form: φ12.5 × 20 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing provide a small footprint through-hole option — part of the UVY series optimized for reduced case size.
• RoHS and Pb‑free construction: Pb‑free leadwire and PET sleeve with RoHS compliance simplify regulatory alignment for assemblies.
