Overview of UVY2G680MHD – 68 µF, 400 V Radial Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UVY2G680MHD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can designed for general-purpose power applications. It delivers 68 µF capacitance at a 400 V rating with a compact φ16 × 30.5 mm package and radial mounting for through-hole assemblies.
Key value comes from a combination of high-voltage capability, defined ripple current performance at both low and high frequency, and proven endurance at elevated temperature: the part is specified for operation from −40 °C to 105 °C with a 2000-hour life at 105 °C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 68 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, rated for 400 V operation.
- Loss Angle (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.25 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz for stable AC characteristics.
- Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current 240 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current 384 mA at 10 kHz, supporting a range of switching and mains-frequency applications.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1188 µA to support predictable standby and charged-state behavior.
- Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 2000 hours at 105 °C; operating temperature range −40 °C to 105 °C for sustained high-temperature use.
- Form Factor & Mounting — Radial-lead can, size φ16 × 30.5 mm, lead spacing 7.5 mm (±0.5 mm) for through-hole PCB mounting and mechanical robustness.
- Packaging & Production Status — Available in bulk or bag packing with mass-production status for production procurement.
- RoHS Compliance — Compliant with RoHS requirements.
- Compact Case Advantage — Part of the UVY series, offering one rank smaller case sizes compared with UVZ series variants for space-constrained designs.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power supplies — Bulk decoupling and smoothing on high-voltage rails where a 400 V rated electrolytic is required and predictable ripple handling is important.
- Industrial control electronics — High-voltage capacitive support for power conversion stages operating across −40 °C to 105 °C.
- Switch-mode power supplies — Input or intermediate bus filtering where combined low- and high-frequency ripple handling is needed.
Unique Advantages
- 400 V rating for high-voltage designs: Enables use on elevated DC rails without additional series components.
- Defined ripple performance at multiple frequencies: Provides both 120 Hz and 10 kHz ripple current specifications (240 mA and 384 mA respectively) for mixed-frequency environments.
- Long endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105 °C supports longer service life in thermally demanding installations.
- Compact radial can: φ16 × 30.5 mm size with 7.5 mm lead spacing offers a space-efficient through-hole option and simplified PCB layout.
- Predictable leakage and dissipation: Specified leakage current (1188 µA) and tanδ (0.25 at 20 °C, 120 Hz) enable accurate power-loss and standby calculations.
- RoHS compliant and production-ready: Environmentally compliant with mass-production availability and standard bulk/bag packing options.
Why Choose UVY2G680MHD?
UVY2G680MHD is positioned for designers who need a reliable, high-voltage radial electrolytic with quantifiable ripple and leakage characteristics. Its 400 V rating, compact φ16 can, and defined endurance make it suitable for general-purpose power filtering and decoupling in systems exposed to elevated temperatures.
The combination of measured tanδ, specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies, and clear leakage current figures allows engineers to model thermal and electrical behavior precisely during design and verification, reducing iteration and simplifying parts selection for through-hole assemblies.
