UWJ0J220MCL1GB

The UWJ0J220MCL1GB is a 22 µF, 6.3 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UWJ series designed as a chip-type surface-mount solution. It targets automotive electronic assemblies and high-density PC boards where compact, AEC-Q200‑rated components and reliable endurance are required.

Key value comes from its compact radial can SMD package, 260°C peak reflow compatibility, long load-life specification, and measured electrical characteristics such as low leakage and defined ripple current ratings for both low and high frequency operation.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 22 µF capacitance at 6.3 V with ±20% tolerance; low leakage current specified as 3 µA (whichever is greater per datasheet method).
• Ripple Handling — Specified ripple currents of 28 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 42 mA at 10 kHz (high frequency) for known AC performance.
• Reliability & Endurance — Load life of 2000 hours at 85°C with defined limits for capacitance change, tan δ and leakage after test.
• Automotive Qualification — AEC‑Q200 compliant per product data, enabling use in automotive electronic designs.
• Assembly Compatibility — Chip-type SMD radial can (φ4 × 5.4 mm length) designed for automatic mounting with embossed carrier taping and compatible with 260°C peak reflow soldering.
• Temperature Range & Standards — Operating range −40°C to +85°C and RoHS compliant.
• Package & Footprint — Compact dimensions (D: 4 mm × L: 5.4 mm) with recommended land size 4.3 mm × 4.3 mm, suited for high-density board layouts.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suitable for automotive electronic modules where AEC‑Q200 compliance and defined endurance at elevated temperature are required.
• High-Density Surface-Mount PCBs — Chip-type can package designed for compact board layouts and dense component placement.
• Automated Assembly Lines — Embossed carrier taping and compatibility with automatic mounting equipment support high-volume production processes.

Unique Advantages

• AEC‑Q200 Compliance: Provides a recognized qualification path for automotive applications and design confidence in demanding environments.
• Reflow-Ready Packaging: Rated for 260°C peak reflow conditions, enabling standard SMT assembly flows without special handling.
• Long Load Life: 2000 hours at 85°C endurance specification helps ensure consistent performance over time in thermal stress conditions.
• Compact Footprint: Small radial can SMD form factor (φ4 × 5.4 mm) conserves board area on high-density designs.
• Measured AC Behavior: Defined ripple current ratings at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow selection based on low- and high-frequency circuit requirements.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS compliant to support environmental regulatory requirements.
