Overview of UVY2C680MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, Radial Lead, 68 µF, 160 V

The UVY2C680MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 68 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating. Designed for general-purpose power circuitry, it provides a compact radial can package (φ12.5 × 20 mm) with 5 mm lead spacing for straightforward through‑hole mounting.

Key performance characteristics include a wide operating temperature range from −40 °C to 105 °C, 2000 hours endurance at 105 °C, and RoHS compliance—making it suitable for applications that require stable capacitance, defined ripple handling, and proven high-temperature endurance.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Tolerance — 68 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
  • Rated Voltage — 160 V working voltage for medium-voltage general-purpose power circuits.
  • Temperature Range — Operates from −40 °C to 105 °C, supporting designs that require extended temperature durability.
  • Endurance — 2000 hours life at 105 °C with rated voltage applied, per the product endurance specification.
  • Ripple Current Capability — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 250 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 400 mA at 10 kHz, with frequency-dependent coefficients defined by the UVY series.
  • Leakage Current & Dissipation Factor — Specified leakage current of 535.2 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.20 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz.
  • Package & Mounting — Radial can package with φ12.5 mm diameter, 20 mm length, 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), and radial lead mounting style.
  • Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing to suit procurement and assembly preferences.
  • Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

  • General-purpose power circuitry — Provides decoupling, smoothing, and energy storage in medium-voltage power circuits that require a 160 V rated electrolytic.
  • Industrial electronics — Suitable for control boards and power modules where a compact radial electrolytic with defined ripple handling and high-temperature endurance is needed.
  • Consumer and commercial equipment — Use where a reliable polarized capacitor with a 68 µF value and RoHS compliance is required for routine power-filtering functions.

Unique Advantages

  • Compact radial can size — φ12.5 × 20 mm package offers a small footprint for through-hole designs while maintaining 68 µF capacitance.
  • Defined ripple performance — Separate low-frequency (250 mA at 120 Hz) and high-frequency (400 mA at 10 kHz) ripple current specifications allow designers to assess performance across operating frequencies.
  • High-temperature endurance — 2000 hours at 105 °C under rated voltage supports durability in thermally demanding environments.
  • Measured dissipation factor and leakage — tan δ = 0.20 (20 °C, 120 Hz) and specified leakage current provide predictable electrical behavior for energy-storage and filtering roles.
  • Standardized mounting and packing — 5 mm lead spacing and bulk/bag packing options simplify PCB layout and procurement choices.
  • Regulatory alignment — RoHS compliance for markets requiring restricted-substance conformance.

Why Choose UVY2C680MHD?

The UVY2C680MHD balances compact radial packaging with medium-voltage capability and defined electrical characteristics, making it a practical choice for general-purpose power-filtering and energy-storage applications. Its specified ripple currents, leakage current, and dissipation factor provide the predictability engineers need when designing around a 160 V electrolytic component.

This part is well suited to designers and procurement teams seeking a RoHS-compliant, production-ready radial electrolytic capacitor with a documented 2000-hour endurance at 105 °C, straightforward mounting, and available bulk or bag packing options.
