Overview of UVY2C101MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Radial Lead, 100 µF, 160 V

The UVY2C101MHD is a Nichicon UVY series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can, offering 100 µF capacitance at a 160 V rated voltage. Engineered for general‑purpose electronic applications, it combines a compact φ12.5 × 25 mm package with performance characteristics tuned for power and decoupling tasks in equipment operating across a wide temperature range.

Key value propositions include a high voltage rating (160 V), robust ripple‑current capability across low and high frequencies, and endurance specified to 2000 hours at 105°C — providing a balance of electrical performance and long‑term reliability for standard electronic designs.

Key Features

  • Electrical Performance 100 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance of −20% to +20% and a dissipation factor (tanδ) of 0.20 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, providing predictable reactive behavior for circuit design.
  • High Voltage Rating Rated for 160 V, suitable where elevated DC voltage capability is required within general‑purpose electronics.
  • Ripple Current Handling Low‑frequency ripple current 310 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current 496 mA at 10 kHz, enabling effective smoothing under varying switching and line conditions.
  • Leakage Current Specification Specified leakage current of 740 µA, defined under standard test conditions for predictable standby and bias characteristics.
  • Temperature and Endurance Rated operating temperature −40°C to +105°C with endurance defined as 2000 hours at 105°C, supporting extended operation in elevated ambient conditions.
  • Mechanical and Mounting Radial lead configuration with φ12.5 × 25 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), available in bulk or bag packing for through‑hole assembly and manual or automated handling.
  • Regulatory RoHS compliant, meeting applicable restrictions for hazardous substances.

Typical Applications

  • General‑Purpose Electronic Circuits — Suited for general‑purpose filtering and energy storage roles in electronic equipment where a 160 V, 100 µF radial electrolytic capacitor is required.
  • Power Supply Filtering — Provides bulk capacitance and ripple smoothing in DC power rails within the specified temperature and endurance parameters.
  • Decoupling and Smoothing — Used to stabilize voltage rails and reduce ripple across a range of line frequencies, supported by specified ripple‑current ratings at 120 Hz and 10 kHz.

Unique Advantages

  • Wide operating temperature span: −40°C to +105°C supports deployment in equipment exposed to broad ambient conditions.
  • High voltage capability: 160 V rating allows use in higher‑voltage circuits without overspecifying larger components.
  • Defined high‑frequency performance: Ripple‑current rating at 10 kHz (496 mA) gives confidence for designs with switching elements or higher frequency content.
  • Long endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C provides predictable lifetime behavior for sustained thermal stress.
  • Compact radial can: φ12.5 × 25 mm size with 5 mm lead spacing enables space‑efficient through‑hole mounting and straightforward board layout.
  • RoHS compliance: Supports environmental and regulatory requirements for restricted substances.
