Overview of UVY2E680MHD – 250 V Radial Lead Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 68 µF
The UVY2E680MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 68 µF of polarized capacitance at a 250 V rating. It is part of Nichicon’s UVY series and is targeted at general-purpose electronic designs that require high-voltage capacitance in a compact radial-can package.
Key attributes include a wide operating temperature range of −40°C to +105°C, a 2000-hour endurance rating at 105°C, low leakage current and defined ripple-current performance at both low and high frequencies—making it suitable for a variety of general-purpose applications.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF rated capacitance with a 250 V working voltage and tolerance of −20% to +20%.
- Wide Temperature Range — Specified operation from −40°C to +105°C, matching the UVY series category for 160–250 V ratings.
- Endurance — Life rating of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage conditions.
- Low Loss & Leakage — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) = 0.20 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) and leakage current specified at 780 µA.
- Ripple Current Performance — Rated ripple current of 270 mA at 120 Hz and 432 mA at 10 kHz for AC stress handling across frequencies.
- Radial Can Package — Compact φ16 × 25 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through‑hole assemblies.
- Packaging & Compliance — Available in Bulk (no terminal forming) or Bag packing; RoHS compliant and in mass-production status.
Typical Applications
- General-Purpose Circuits — Provides 68 µF/250 V polarized capacitance for general-purpose designs that require a compact radial electrolytic solution.
- Designs Requiring Wide Temperature Operation — Suited to circuits that must operate between −40°C and +105°C and need defined endurance at elevated temperature.
- Through-Hole Implementations — Radial lead form and 7.5 mm lead spacing support straightforward through‑hole mounting and replacement/maintenance use cases.
Unique Advantages
- High Voltage Capability: 250 V rating provides headroom for higher-voltage general-purpose circuits while maintaining compact packaging.
- Defined Endurance at Elevated Temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C gives a clear reliability expectation for thermal stress and long-term use.
- Measured Loss and Leakage: tanδ = 0.20 and leakage current = 780 µA provide quantifiable electrical characteristics for design verification.
- Frequency-Aware Ripple Performance: Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz (270 mA and 432 mA respectively) allow designers to assess AC stress across operating frequencies.
- Compact Radial Form Factor: φ16 × 25 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify board layout for through-hole assemblies and retrofit applications.
- RoHS Compliance and Packing Options: RoHS‑compliant and available in Bulk or Bag packing to suit volume assembly or smaller runs.
