Overview of UVZ2E101MHD – Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 100 µF, 250 V, Radial Lead
The UVZ2E101MHD is a Nichicon UVZ series aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a radial‑lead can designed for general-purpose electronic applications. It provides 100 µF capacitance at a 250 V rating, with a compact φ16 × 30.5 mm can and 7.5 mm lead spacing for through-hole mounting.
Engineered for durability across a wide temperature range (–40 °C to 105 °C) and a 2000 hour endurance at 105 °C, this polarized capacitor is suited to applications requiring stable filtering, smoothing and energy storage with defined ripple and leakage characteristics.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 100 µF capacitance with tolerance of –20% to +20%, providing predictable charge storage within specified tolerance limits.
- Rated Voltage — 250 V DC rating for higher-voltage general-purpose designs that require through-hole electrolytic capacitance.
- Loss Characteristics (tan δ) — tanδ = 0.2 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, enabling designers to assess dissipation factor under the stated test condition.
- Ripple Current Ratings — Low-frequency ripple current of 365 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 584 mA at 10 kHz, useful for filtering and smoothing across a range of operating frequencies.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1100 µA, enabling quantifiable standby and bias current budgeting in circuit designs.
- Thermal and Endurance — Operating temperature from –40 °C to 105 °C with a rated life of 2000 hours at 105 °C, supporting sustained performance in elevated‑temperature environments.
- Package and Mounting — Radial lead, polarized can (φ16 × 30.5 mm) with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for easy through-hole assembly; available in Bulk (no terminal forming) or Bag packing.
- Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction.
Typical Applications
- General Purpose Electronics — Provides bulk capacitance for general-purpose boards where 250 V, 100 µF radial electrolytic performance is required.
- Power Supply Filtering — Suited for smoothing and filtering applications with defined ripple current ratings at 120 Hz and 10 kHz.
- Smoothing and Decoupling — Polarized radial package supports through-hole designs that need dependable energy storage and decoupling over a wide temperature range.
Unique Advantages
- High Voltage Handling: 250 V rating enables use in higher-voltage general-purpose circuits where elevated DC voltage capability is required.
- Wide Temperature Range: –40 °C to 105 °C operation supports reliable performance across varied environmental conditions.
