Overview of UVY2A680MPD – 100 V, 68 µF Radial Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UVY2A680MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a rated capacitance of 68 µF and a 100 V voltage rating. It is a polarized, general-purpose component designed for applications that require compact energy storage and filtering in a wide operating temperature range.
Key attributes include a compact φ10 × 12.5 mm can, a -55 °C to 105 °C operating range, defined ripple-current performance at both low and high frequency, and a 2000-hour endurance rating at 105 °C.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 68 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a tanδ of 0.08 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, providing defined impedance characteristics for filtering and decoupling.
- Voltage Rating — Rated for 100 V operation, suitable for higher-voltage general-purpose circuits requiring polarized capacitance.
- Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 190 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 380 mA at 10 kHz to support both power-supply smoothing and higher-frequency decoupling.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 204 µA, enabling predictable leakage behavior in charge-storage applications.
- Wide Temperature & Endurance — Operating range from -55 °C to 105 °C with a rated life/endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C, suitable for prolonged elevated-temperature operation.
- Compact Radial Package — φ10 × 12.5 mm aluminum can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through-hole assemblies; available in bulk or bag packing.
- Regulatory — RoHS-compliant construction.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power filtering — Bulk and local decoupling in power-supply circuits where a 100 V, 68 µF polarized capacitor is required.
- Power-supply smoothing — Energy-storage and ripple reduction in mid-voltage power rails within the stated temperature and endurance limits.
- Through-hole assemblies — Radial-lead mounting for repairable, serviceable, or prototype PCBs that require compact electrolytic capacitance.
Unique Advantages
- Wide operating temperature span — Specified from -55 °C to 105 °C, enabling use across a broad range of ambient conditions.
- High-voltage capability — 100 V rating provides margin for higher-voltage general-purpose circuits compared with lower-voltage electrolytics.
- Defined ripple performance — Published low- and high-frequency ripple-current ratings (190 mA at 120 Hz, 380 mA at 10 kHz) help designers size capacitors for real-world ripple loads.
- Long endurance at elevated temperature — 2000 hours at 105 °C specification supports applications with extended high-temperature exposure.
- Predictable dielectric characteristics — Low tanδ (0.08 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) and specified leakage current (204 µA) simplify circuit design and impedance budgeting.
- Compact radial form factor — φ10 × 12.5 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing provides a small footprint for through-hole layouts and hand-assembly environments.
Why Choose UVY2A680MPD?
