Overview of UVZ1A153MHD – 15,000 µF, 10 V Radial Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The UVZ1A153MHD is an aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, offering 15,000 µF of capacitance at a 10 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose use where high bulk capacitance and robust thermal performance are required.
Key value propositions include a wide operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, a 2000-hour endurance rating at 105°C, and measurable ripple-current capability at both low and high frequencies—making it suitable for demanding low-voltage power applications.
Key Features
- High Capacitance & Voltage: 15,000 µF nominal capacitance with a 10 V rated voltage, providing substantial bulk energy storage for low-voltage circuits.
- Temperature Range & Endurance: Operates from -55°C to 105°C with a lifetime rating of 2000 hours at 105°C, supporting long-term use in elevated-temperature environments.
- Ripple Current Performance: Low-frequency ripple current of 2.18 A at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 2.507 A at 10 kHz, enabling effective filtering across a range of switching frequencies.
- Leakage Current & Tolerance: Specified leakage current of 4500 µA and capacitance tolerance of ±20%, allowing predictable behavior during design and qualification.
- Package & Mounting: Radial lead can with physical dimensions φ18 × 35.5 mm (L = 3.55 cm, D = 1.8 cm), lead spacing 7.5 mm ±0.5 mm, and polarized construction for through-hole mounting.
- Compliance & Packaging Options: RoHS compliant with bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing options; product is in mass production.
Typical Applications
- General-purpose power filtering: Bulk capacitance for smoothing and decoupling on 10 V power rails where large energy storage is required.
- Power supply bulk storage: Energy reservoir for low-voltage converters and regulators, leveraging the 15,000 µF capacity and specified ripple-current ratings.
- High-temperature environments: Designs that require reliable operation up to 105°C and long endurance at elevated temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- High bulk capacitance in a compact radial can: 15,000 µF in a φ18 × 35.5 mm package provides significant energy storage without a large PCB footprint.
- Designed for elevated-temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C supports longer service life in thermally demanding installations.
- Dual-frequency ripple capability: Specified ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz enable effective filtering across common low- and high-frequency sources.
- Predictable leakage and tolerance: Documented leakage current and ±20% capacitance tolerance aid in margining and system-level reliability planning.
- RoHS compliant and production-ready: Meets RoHS requirements and is available in bulk or bag packing for straightforward procurement and assembly workflows.
