UVZ2C331MHD

The UVZ2C331MHD is a Nichicon UVZ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can. It delivers 330 µF nominal capacitance at a 160 V rated voltage and is specified for general‑purpose applications.

Designed for extended operation across a wide ambient range (‑40 °C to 105 °C) and rated for 2000 hours at 105 °C, this radial through‑hole capacitor provides reliable filtering and energy‑storage performance for engineers specifying discrete power components.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 330 µF nominal capacitance with a 160 V rated voltage; capacitance tolerance is ‑20% to +20%.
• Loss Tangent — tanδ (DF) = 0.20 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, providing a defined dissipation characteristic for design calculations.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low‑frequency ripple current 750 mA (120 Hz) and high‑frequency ripple current 862.5 mA (10 kHz), specified for thermal and ripple management.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 2,212 µA (measured per product data), useful for standby and bias designs.
• Reliability & Endurance — Rated endurance of 2000 hours at 105 °C with defined capacitance and dissipation limits after test.
• Package & Mounting — Radial, can‑style case: φ18 × 40 mm (L) with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm), supplied in bulk or bag packing for through‑hole assembly.
• Operating Temperature — Specified for −40 °C to +105 °C, matching the UVZ series wide temperature range for 160 V parts.
• Regulatory — RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• General‑purpose electronics — Provides bulk energy storage and smoothing in circuits that require a 330 µF, 160 V radial capacitor.
• Power supply filtering — Used where a through‑hole electrolytic with defined ripple and leakage characteristics is required for filtering and decoupling.
• Industrial equipment — Suitable for general‑purpose roles within equipment that operates across −40 °C to +105 °C and benefits from long endurance at elevated temperature.

Unique Advantages

• High voltage rating: 160 V rating supports designs that require mid‑range DC bus voltage handling.
• Defined thermal endurance: 2000 hours at 105 °C gives a verifiable life metric for high‑temperature applications.
• Measured ripple specifications: Both low‑frequency (750 mA at 120 Hz) and high‑frequency (862.5 mA at 10 kHz) ripple current values are provided for accurate thermal and ripple budgeting.
• Radial through‑hole form factor: φ18 × 40 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing simplify PCB layout and manual or wave solder assembly in discrete designs.
• Clear electrical characterization: Specified tanδ at 20 °C/120 Hz and a stated leakage current allow direct comparison and predictable behavior in bias and standby conditions.
• RoHS compliance: Ensures conformity with lead‑free assembly requirements.
