UWT1C100MCL1GB

The UWT1C100MCL1GB is a chip-type aluminum electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon's UWT series designed for surface-mount use on high-density printed circuit boards. It combines a compact SMD can package with a wide operating temperature range and AEC-Q200 qualification for demanding environments.

This part is intended for automated assembly (carrier-tape compatible) and provides verified endurance and electrical characteristics for applications that require reliable capacitance and stability from −55°C to +105°C.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 10 µF rated capacitance with ±20% tolerance and a 16 V rated voltage; polarized aluminum electrolytic construction.
• Wide Temperature Range — Specified to operate from −55°C to +105°C to support a broad set of environmental conditions.
• Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 Qualified and RoHS compliant; endurance specified as 1000 hours at 105°C with defined limits on capacitance change and leakage.
• Endurance Characteristics — After 1000 hours at 105°C with rated voltage applied, capacitance change for 16 V or less remains within ±25% and leakage stays within initial specified limits.
• Low Leakage — Leakage current specified as not more than 0.01CV or 3 µA (whichever is greater) after 2 minutes at 20°C.
• Ripple Current Ratings — Ripple current specified as 18 mA at 120 Hz and 27 mA at 10 kHz.
• Package & Mounting — Radial can SMD package designed for surface mounting; part dimensions 5.4 × 4 mm (L × D) with recommended land size 4.3 × 4.3 mm. Compatible with automatic mounting machines fed by carrier tape.
• AC Characteristics — Dissipation factor (tan δ) for 16 V rated parts is specified (max. 0.20 at 120 Hz, 20°C); low-temperature impedance ratios are provided for performance verification.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suited for modules and assemblies that require AEC-Q200 qualification and operation across −55°C to +105°C.
• High-density surface-mount assemblies — Designed for placement on compact PCBs where a small SMD can capacitor is required.
• Automated production — Compatible with carrier-tape fed automatic mounting machines for efficient assembly and throughput.

Unique Advantages

• Wide operating temperature window — −55°C to +105°C specification enables use in a broad range of thermal environments.
• AEC-Q200 Qualification — Qualification suitable for designs that require recognized component-level reliability testing.
• Compact SMD can package — 5.4 × 4 mm footprint with a 4.3 × 4.3 mm recommended land pattern helps minimize PCB area.
• Documented endurance — 1000 hours at 105°C with defined limits on capacitance change and leakage provides measurable long-term performance data.
• Controlled leakage and dissipation — Leakage current limit (0.01CV or 3 µA) and specified tan δ support predictable circuit behavior.
• Assembly-friendly — Designed for automatic mounting using carrier tape to streamline manufacturing.
