UVZ2C220MPD

The UVZ2C220MPD is a Nichicon UVZ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial-lead can, offering 22 µF capacitance at a 160 V rating. It is designed for general-purpose electronic applications requiring through-hole mounting, compact size, and a wide operating temperature range.

With a rated temperature range of −40°C to +105°C and a specified endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C, this capacitor delivers stable performance for power filtering, decoupling and general-purpose circuitry where a moderate voltage rating and compact footprint are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Tolerance — 22 µF nominal capacitance with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
• Rated Voltage — 160 V working voltage suitable for mid-voltage power circuits.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Specified operation from −40°C to +105°C to support a broad range of environments.
• Endurance — Life rating of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage, with capacitance change within ±20% and leakage current maintained at or below initial specified values after test.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 100 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 160 mA at 10 kHz for AC stress handling across frequencies.
• Leakage and Loss — Specified leakage current of 240.8 µA and tan δ (loss tangent) of 0.20 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable loss behavior.
• Radial Lead Package — φ10 × 16 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead configuration for through-hole PCB assembly.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing to suit production and prototyping workflows.
• RoHS Compliant — Meets RoHS directive requirements as noted for the UVZ series.

Typical Applications

• General-Purpose Power Circuits — Where a 22 µF, 160 V electrolytic is needed for bulk decoupling, smoothing, or energy storage in through-hole designs.
• Power Supply Filters — Suitable for mid-voltage filter stages requiring stable capacitance and defined ripple current handling.
• Embedded and Industrial Electronics — Use in general-purpose circuitry that requires a wide operating temperature range and robust endurance.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced Voltage and Capacitance: 22 µF at 160 V provides a practical combination for mid-voltage power applications without excessive board area.
• Wide Temperature Capability: Operation from −40°C to +105°C supports deployment in varied environmental conditions.
• Defined Endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C gives a quantifiable life expectation for thermal stress planning.
• Frequency-Aware Ripple Specs: Separate low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (120 Hz and 10 kHz) help designers assess performance across real-world signal conditions.
• Through-Hole Convenience: Radial lead, φ10 × 16 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing simplifies prototyping and assembly for legacy and industrial PCBs.
• Regulatory Compatibility: RoHS compliance aligns with environmental regulations for manufacturing and procurement.
