UVZ2A101MPD

The UVZ2A101MPD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UVZ series, offering 100 µF capacitance at a 100 V rated voltage. It is designed for general-purpose electronic use where a compact, polarized electrolytic capacitor with wide operating temperature range and defined ripple handling is required.

Built for applications that demand stable performance across –55°C to 105°C and long endurance at elevated temperature, this part combines a φ10 × 20 mm can with radial leads and practical packaging choices for production use.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF rated capacitance at 100 V, with capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20% (±20% at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Wide Temperature Range — Operating temperature from –55°C to 105°C, supporting designs that require broad temperature endurance.
• Endurance — Rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C per specification for extended high-temperature reliability.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 265 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 397.5 mA (10 kHz), enabling defined AC stress handling in circuits.
• Low Loss Characteristic — Dissipation factor (tan δ) of 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, for predictable loss behavior.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 300 µA after rated voltage application, for predictable off-state current.
• Compact Radial Package — φ10 × 20 mm aluminum can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), radial lead mounting for through-hole assemblies.
• Packaging Options — Available in Bulk (No Terminal Forming) or Bag Packing to suit production handling and assembly workflows.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as noted in the product series information.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Electronics — Suitable for general-purpose circuits that require a polarized electrolytic capacitor with defined capacitance, tolerance, and temperature range.
• Power Supply Modules — Used where a 100 V rated capacitor with specified ripple current (265 mA at 120 Hz; 397.5 mA at 10 kHz) is needed for AC stress handling and smoothing.
• Industrial Equipment — Applicable in industrial designs that demand operation across –55°C to 105°C and long endurance at elevated temperature (2000 h at 105°C).
• Compact Through-Hole Assemblies — The φ10 × 20 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing provide a small footprint for densely packed through-hole boards.

Unique Advantages

• Wide thermal tolerance: –55°C to 105°C operating range enables deployment across varied environments without changing package size.
• High-voltage capability: 100 V rating supports circuits requiring elevated DC voltage handling in a compact radial can.
• Defined ripple handling: Published ripple currents at both low and high frequencies allow designers to quantify AC stress capability in their designs.
• Long high-temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C offers predictable life performance for elevated-temperature applications.
• Predictable electrical loss: tan δ of 0.08 (20°C, 120 Hz) provides a known dissipation parameter for thermal and efficiency considerations.
• Production-friendly packaging: Bulk or bag packing options simplify procurement and assembly logistics for production volumes.
