UVZ2E220MHD

The UVZ2E220MHD is a radial-lead aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UVZ series, offering 22 µF nominal capacitance at a 250 V rating. Designed for general-purpose applications, it delivers stable electrical characteristics across a wide temperature range and a defined endurance at elevated temperature.

Key value comes from its combination of compact radial can packaging (φ12.5 × 20 mm), wide operating temperature range (−40 °C to +105 °C), and defined ripple and leakage characteristics for reliable performance in general-purpose circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 22 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 250 V and a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Temperature Range — Operates from −40 °C to +105 °C, suitable for applications requiring extended temperature performance at the specified voltage class.
• Endurance — Rated life of 2000 hours at 105 °C with the rated voltage applied, meeting endurance criteria after restoration to 20 °C.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 130 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 208 mA (10 kHz), specified for thermal and AC stress planning.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 320 µA to support predictable standby and bias conditions.
• Loss Tangent (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.2 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz, for loss budgeting in AC conditions.
• Package & Mounting — Radial-lead, can-style package (φ12.5 × 20L) with 5.0 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for through-hole mounting and easy PCB layout.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) and bag packing to suit prototyping or assembly workflows.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant with RoHS directives as noted in the UVZ series documentation.

Typical Applications

• General-purpose power circuits — Useful where a 22 µF, 250 V polarized capacitor is required for general-purpose energy storage and decoupling within the specified temperature and endurance limits.
• Through-hole assembly and prototyping — Radial-lead format and bag/bulk packing make it suitable for manual assembly, prototyping, and replacement use in existing through-hole designs.
• Environments with elevated operating temperature — The −40 °C to +105 °C range and 2000-hour endurance at 105 °C support designs that must maintain performance under sustained thermal stress.

Unique Advantages

• Predictable high-voltage performance — 250 V rating combined with defined leakage and tan δ values enables straightforward inclusion in voltage-stressed circuits.
• Clear thermal specification — Specified operating temperature and endurance at 105 °C permit reliable lifetime planning for thermal environments.
• Measured ripple specifications — Provided low- and high-frequency ripple current ratings (130 mA @120 Hz, 208 mA @10 kHz) allow designers to size capacitors against AC stress requirements.
• Compact radial form factor — φ12.5 × 20 mm can and 5 mm lead spacing simplify PCB footprint planning for through-hole assemblies.
• RoHS compliance — Meets RoHS requirements noted for the UVZ series for regulatory alignment.
• Available packaging flexibility — Bulk and bag packing options accommodate both prototype and production workflows.
