UWD0J102MCL1GS

The UWD0J102MCL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UWD series, engineered for surface-mount assembly on high-density PCBs. It delivers low impedance performance in a compact SMD can and is designed to withstand 260°C peak reflow soldering conditions.

Targeted for automotive and other demanding environments, this polarized capacitor combines a 1 mF capacitance at 6.3 V with AEC-Q200 qualification, a wide operating temperature range, and long-term endurance for reliability in system-level power applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — Rated at 1 mF (1000 µF) with a rated voltage of 6.3 V and a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (−20% to +20%).
• Low Impedance Performance — Specified impedance of 90 mΩ and polarization suited for DC applications; supports ripple current specifications of 335 mA at 120 Hz and 670 mA at 10 kHz.
• High-Temperature Reflow Compatibility — Designed to correspond with 260°C peak reflow soldering; recommended reflow condition: 260°C peak for 5 seconds and 230°C for 60 seconds (two passes; φ10 × 10: one pass).
• Temperature Range & Endurance — Operates from −55°C to +105°C with a specified lifetime of 5000 hours at 105°C.
• Reliability & Compliance — AEC-Q200 Qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), suitable for regulated applications that require recognized supplier qualifications.
• SMT Packaging & Assembly — Chip-type SMD radial can package for surface mounting on high-density PCBs; compatible with automatic mounting machines fed by carrier tape. Physical footprint: L: 1 × D: 1 cm; recommended land size: 1.03 × 1.03 cm.
• Polarized Electrolytic Design — Conventional electrolytic polarity for DC smoothing and energy storage in compact SMD form.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance make it suitable for in-vehicle modules that require qualified SMD electrolytic capacitors.
• High-Density PCB Assemblies — Chip-type SMD construction and carrier-tape compatibility enable automated placement on compact, densely populated boards.
• Power Supply Filtering — Low impedance and defined ripple current ratings support use in local decoupling and smoothing on DC power rails.

Unique Advantages

• Reflow-ready SMT construction: Designed for 260°C peak reflow, simplifying assembly with standard lead-free reflow processes.
• Low impedance for improved transient handling: 90 mΩ impedance combined with published ripple current ratings helps maintain stable voltage under AC stress.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 status provides an added level of supply-chain and application confidence for regulated vehicle electronics.
• Compact footprint: 1 × 1 cm can enables space-saving placement on high-density boards while providing substantial capacitance.
• Long-term thermal endurance: Rated for 5000 hours at 105°C, supporting designs that require extended life at elevated temperatures.
• RoHS compliance: Meets current RoHS requirements for materials and restricted substances.
