UWT1A151MCL1GS

The UWT1A151MCL1GS is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UWT series, designed for surface mounting on high-density printed circuit boards. It delivers 150 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating with polarized construction and is intended for applications requiring wide temperature operation and automated assembly compatibility.

Key value propositions include a wide operating temperature range (−55 to +105°C), AEC-Q200 qualification for reliability in demanding environments, and dimensions and tape-feed compatibility suited to high-density surface-mount manufacturing.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 150 µF nominal capacitance at 10 V with ±20% tolerance and polarized construction for DC decoupling and bulk energy storage.
• Wide Temperature Range — Rated to operate from −55 to +105°C, supporting designs that must tolerate extreme ambient and thermal conditions.
• Endurance and Reliability — Specified lifetime of 1000 hours at 105°C; AEC-Q200 qualified for use in environments that require automotive-grade reliability.
• Ripple Handling — Ripple current ratings of 86 mA at 120 Hz and 129 mA at 10 kHz to characterize performance across low and high frequency ripple conditions.
• Surface-Mount Package — Chip-type radial can SMD package sized L: 5.8 × D: 6.3 mm with recommended land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm for dense PCB layouts and automated pick-and-place assembly.
• Manufacturing Compatibility — Designed for automatic mounting machines and compatible with carrier-tape feed for volume surface-mount assembly.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suited for automotive modules and systems where AEC-Q200 qualification and wide temperature range are required.
• High-density surface-mount assemblies — Designed for compact PCBs that require chip-type SMD capacitors and precise land patterning.
• Automated assembly lines — Optimized for use with automatic mounting machines fed by carrier tape to support scalable production.

Unique Advantages

• Wide operating temperature span: −55 to +105°C rating enables use across harsh thermal environments without specification changes.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Provides a recognized reliability baseline for applications demanding automotive-grade component screening.
• Compact SMD can package: Small L: 5.8 × D: 6.3 mm footprint and defined land size (6.6 × 6.6 mm) simplify placement in space-constrained designs.
• Tape-and-reel assembly ready: Designed for carrier-tape feed to streamline automated placement and reduce assembly cycle time.
• High-temperature endurance: 1000 hours at 105°C lifecycle specification supports long-term operation in elevated-temperature locations.
• Measured ripple performance: Published ripple currents at 120 Hz and 10 kHz (86 mA and 129 mA respectively) allow designers to evaluate filtering and decoupling under expected load conditions.
