UVZ0J153MHD

The UVZ0J153MHD is a Nichicon UVZ series radial lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 15,000 µF capacitance at a 6.3 V rating in a φ16 × 35.5 mm can. It is a polarized, general-purpose capacitor designed for applications requiring large bulk capacitance in a compact radial-lead package.

Key performance characteristics include a wide operating temperature range of −55 °C to +105 °C, endurance rated for 2000 hours at 105 °C, and measurable ripple current capability at both low and high frequencies for power-rail decoupling and filtering tasks.

Key Features

• High Capacitance (15,000 µF) Provides significant bulk energy storage for smoothing and decoupling on DC rails.
• Rated Voltage: 6.3 V Designed for low-voltage systems where high capacitance is required at modest working voltages.
• Wide Operating Temperature Specified for −55 °C to +105 °C, supporting use across a broad thermal range.
• Endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C Life rating specifies capacitance change within ±20% and controlled tan δ increase after the endurance test.
• Ripple Current Capability Low-frequency ripple current 2.010 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.312 A (10 kHz) to support filtering under AC ripple conditions.
• Tangent of Loss Angle (tan δ) Specified tan δ value 0.56 (measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz) for this part, reflecting dissipation characteristics at the rated conditions.
• Compact Radial Can Package Dimension φ16 × 35.5 mm with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through-hole, radial-lead mounting and straightforward PCB placement.
• Leakage Current Measured leakage current 2835 µA, specified per part data for power budgeting and design analysis.
• RoHS Compliant Conforms to RoHS directive requirements.
• Packaging Options Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing for flexible procurement and assembly workflows.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power supplies — Bulk filtering and energy storage on low-voltage DC rails where high capacitance is required.
• Industrial control electronics — Smoothing and decoupling in control and power modules operating across a wide temperature range.
• Consumer electronics and appliances — Bulk capacitance for power stabilization in devices that require long endurance and compact radial-lead components.

Unique Advantages

• Large capacitance in a compact can — 15,000 µF in a φ16 × 35.5 mm package minimizes board area while providing substantial bulk energy storage.
• Wide temperature tolerance — Rated from −55 °C to +105 °C to support deployments in varied thermal environments.
• Long endurance rating — 2000 hours at 105 °C for predictable lifetime behavior in sustained high-temperature operation.
• Measured ripple performance — Specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz help designers size capacitors for both low- and high-frequency ripple conditions.
• Through-hole radial mounting — 7.5 mm lead spacing and standard radial-lead can simplify assembly for hand or wave soldering processes.
• RoHS compliance and packaging flexibility — Environmentally compliant materials and choice of bulk or bag packing to fit production needs.
