UWJ1C100MCL1GB

The UWJ1C100MCL1GB is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic chip capacitor engineered for high-density PCB assembly. It delivers 10 µF capacitance at 16 V with polarized construction and is designed for automotive applications where robust electrical filtering and energy buffering are required.

Key value propositions include compatibility with 260°C peak reflow processes, AEC-Q200 qualification for automotive environments, and a defined load life of 2000 hours at 85°C—providing a balance of assembly robustness and in-service reliability.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 10 µF rated capacitance at 16 V suitable for decoupling and smoothing functions in power rails.
• Tolerance & Polarization — ±20% tolerance and polarized construction for predictable performance in DC applications.
• Package & Mounting — Chip-type, surface-mount radial can package designed for automatic placement on high-density PCBs.
• High-temperature Reflow Compatibility — Engineered to withstand 260°C peak reflow soldering; recommended reflow condition includes 260°C peak for 5 seconds and 230°C for 60 seconds (up to two passes).
• Reliability & Lifetime — Load life specified as 2000 hours at 85°C with specified limits on capacitance change, tan δ, and leakage current after endurance testing.
• Leakage & Ripple Performance — Low leakage current (3 µA specified) and rated ripple currents of 23 mA at 120 Hz and 34.5 mA at 10 kHz for stable performance under AC stress.
• Operating Temperature Range — Specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C to match common automotive and industrial thermal environments.
• Standards & Compliance — RoHS compliant and AEC-Q200 compliant for automotive-grade qualification.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Electronics — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on vehicle power rails where AEC-Q200 qualification is required.
• ECU and Module Power Supply — Local energy buffering for electronic control units and power modules operating in −40°C to +85°C ambient ranges.
• Sensor and Signal Conditioning — Stabilizing supply lines for sensors and microcontrollers in automotive subsystems.

Unique Advantages

• Assembly-friendly reflow capability: Rated for 260°C peak reflow to integrate with lead-free, high-temperature assembly processes.
• Automotive-grade reliability: AEC-Q200 compliance and a 2000-hour load-life at 85°C support deployment in vehicle electronics.
• Low leakage and defined ripple handling: 3 µA leakage and specified ripple currents provide predictable behavior in power-filtering roles.
• Compact SMD form factor: Chip-type surface-mount package supports high-density PCB layouts and automated placement.
• RoHS compliant: Conforms to environmental directives for regulatory compatibility.
