UWD1A101MCL1GS

The UWD1A101MCL1GS from Nichicon is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for surface-mount use on high-density printed circuit boards. Built for high-temperature reflow assembly and long-term operation to +105°C, it addresses demanding power-filtering and decoupling needs in automotive and other temperature-challenging applications.

Key value comes from a compact SMD can package, low impedance characteristics, and AEC-Q200 qualification—providing a balance of size, reliability, and assembly compatibility for production environments.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 100 µF capacitance at 10 V nominal with ±20% tolerance and polarization suitable for power rail decoupling and smoothing.
• Low Impedance — Specified impedance of 440 mΩ, and designated as a low-impedance type to support ripple handling and transient suppression.
• Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple currents of 115 mA at 120 Hz and 230 mA at 10 kHz to address low- and high-frequency ripple on DC rails.
• High-Temperature Operation & Endurance — Operating temperature range of −55°C to +105°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at +105°C.
• High-Temperature Reflow Compatible — Engineered for 260°C peak reflow soldering (recommended: 260°C peak 5 s; 230°C over 60 s, 2 cycles for most sizes), supporting modern assembly processes.
• Surface-Mount Package — Radial can SMD/chip type in a compact footprint (L: 5.8 × D: 6.3 mm) with recommended land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm for automated placement.
• Quality & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, with black top marking for part identification.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Control Modules — Bulk decoupling and smoothing on 10 V DC rails in ECUs and controllers where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Power Supply Filtering — Local energy storage and ripple suppression on power management and DC–DC converter outputs benefiting from low impedance and defined ripple current ratings.
• Infotainment and Instrumentation — Compact SMD can supports space-constrained boards while meeting extended temperature and soldering process requirements.

Unique Advantages

• Assembly-Ready for Lead-Free Reflow: Designed to withstand 260°C peak reflow conditions, enabling reliable integration into modern SMT production flows.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability: AEC-Q200 qualification and a 2000-hour rating at +105°C deliver defined endurance for automotive and other harsh-environment electronics.
• Compact, PCB-Friendly Footprint: Small L: 5.8 × D: 6.3 mm can and a recommended 6.6 × 6.6 mm land make it suitable for high-density board layouts and automated placement.
• Low-Impedance Performance: 440 mΩ impedance plus specified ripple current ratings help reduce voltage ripple and improve transient response on power rails.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliance supports use in regulated markets and simplifies environmental conformity planning.
