UVY2W101MHD

The UVY2W101MHD from Nichicon is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in the UVY series, rated 100 µF at 450 V. It is built for general-purpose power applications where a high-voltage polarized electrolytic in a compact radial can is required.

Key attributes include 2000 hours endurance at 105°C, a wide operating temperature range of −25°C to 105°C, and ripple-current capability specified for both low and high frequencies, making it suitable for bulk energy smoothing and DC-link applications in industrial and power electronics.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 450 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Ripple Current Performance: Specified ripple currents of 200 mA (120 Hz) and 320 mA (10 kHz) to support both low- and high-frequency filtering needs.
• Endurance & Temperature Range: 2000 hours at 105°C rated life and an operating temperature range of −25°C to 105°C for sustained high-temperature operation.
• Leakage Current: Leakage current specified at 1900 µA (product data), providing a clear electrical leakage expectation for design budgets.
• Package & Mounting: Radial lead can (φ18 × 40 mm, L: 4 × D: 1.8 cm) with 7.5 mm lead spacing; supplied in bulk/bag packaging for through-hole assembly.
• Polarized Construction: Polarized aluminum electrolytic design for DC smoothing and energy storage in polarity-sensitive circuits.
• RoHS Compliant: Compliant with RoHS requirements as noted for the UVY series.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering: Bulk smoothing and ripple suppression on high-voltage DC rails in switch-mode and linear power supplies.
• DC-Link / Energy Buffering: Local energy storage for inverter and motor-drive intermediate circuits where a 450 V rating is required.
• Industrial Power Electronics: General-purpose use in industrial controllers, converters, and power-conditioning equipment that need durable high-voltage capacitance.

Unique Advantages

• High Voltage in a Compact Can: 450 V rating packaged in a φ18 × 40 mm radial can provides a balance of voltage capability and space efficiency.
• Dual-Frequency Ripple Capability: Explicit ripple specifications at 120 Hz and 10 kHz support designers addressing both line-frequency and high-frequency switching noise.
• Long-Term High-Temperature Endurance: 2000 h at 105°C endurance enables predictable lifetime performance in elevated-temperature environments.
• Clear Electrical Leakage Specification: Leakage current quoted (1900 µA) gives designers a verified leakage baseline for standby and leakage budgets.
• Through-Hole, Serviceable Form Factor: Radial-lead can with 7.5 mm lead spacing simplifies replacement and prototyping in hand-assembled or serviceable boards.
• Production-Ready Packaging: Bulk/bag packaging and mass production status support volume procurement and manufacturing continuity.
