UWP1E100MCL1GB

The UWP1E100MCL1GB is a surface-mount, bi‑polarized aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufactured by Nichicon. It delivers 10 µF capacitance at a 25 V rating in a compact chip-style SMD can designed for high-density PCB mounting and automatic assembly.

Engineered for industrial and automotive electronics, this part combines RoHS compliance and AEC‑Q200 qualification with a small footprint and defined endurance characteristics to support reliable operation across a wide temperature range.

Key Features

• Electrical Characteristics — 10 µF nominal capacitance at 25 V rated voltage with ±20% tolerance, suitable where a bi‑polar aluminum electrolytic is required.
• Bi‑Polar Construction — Bi‑polarized design enables AC polarity reversal per datasheet endurance test procedures.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Specified ripple handling of 27 mA at 120 Hz and 40.5 mA at 10 kHz to support filtering and decoupling in populated boards.
• Reliability & Endurance — Endurance specified as 1000 hours at 85°C with polarity inversion every 250 hours; capacitance change and leakage limits are defined by the datasheet endurance conditions.
• Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −40°C to +85°C to meet common industrial and automotive ambient conditions.
• Surface-Mount Package — Chip-type SMD can (radial, can - SMD) with compact dimensions L: 5.4 × D: 6.3 mm and recommended land size L: 6.6 × W: 6.6 mm for high-density PCB layouts.
• Assembly Compatibility — Designed for automatic mounting using carrier tape and compatible with surface-mount manufacturing processes; marking is black print on the case top.
• Environmental & Quality Standards — Compliant with RoHS and qualified to AEC‑Q200 per product data.
• Leakage Current — Leakage specified as not more than 0.05CV or 10 µA (whichever is greater) after 2 minutes' application of rated voltage at 20°C, per datasheet.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — For use on high-density automotive PCBs where AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance are required.
• High‑Density PCB Assemblies — Compact chip can and defined land pattern make the part suitable for space-constrained board designs and automated placement.
• AC/Decoupling Circuits — Bi‑polarized construction supports applications that require capacitor polarity reversal or AC coupling on populated boards.

Unique Advantages

• AEC‑Q200 Qualification: Provides an explicit qualification level useful for designs targeting automotive or similarly demanding environments.
• Compact SMD Can: Small L: 5.4 × D: 6.3 mm footprint and a defined land size simplify placement in dense layouts and reduce board real estate.
• Defined Endurance: 1000 hours at 85°C with specified post-test limits gives measurable reliability data for lifetime planning.
• Bi‑Polar Capability: Allows use in AC or polarity‑reversing circuits where non‑polarized performance is needed.
• Manufacturing Ready: Carrier‑tape compatible and labeled for automated surface‑mount assembly to streamline production flow.
• Measured Leakage and Ripple Specs: Datasheet-defined leakage and ripple current values support predictable circuit behavior under specified conditions.
