UWX1A330MCL1GB

The UWX1A330MCL1GB is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon's UWX series, offering 33 µF capacitance at a 10 V rating in a compact φ5 × 5.4 mm chip package. It is produced for automatic assembly with embossed carrier taping and is designed for dense PCB layouts.

Key technical attributes include AEC‑Q200 compliance, a rated life of 2000 hours at 85 °C, operating temperature range of −40 °C to +85 °C, and controlled loss characteristics (tanδ 0.20 at 120 Hz, 20 °C). These make the part suitable for demanding automotive electronics environments where established endurance and predictable electrical behavior are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 33 µF nominal capacitance at a 10 V rated voltage with a tolerance of −20% to +20% (±20%).
• Dielectric Loss (tanδ) — Specified tanδ of 0.20 (max) measured at 120 Hz and 20 °C, enabling predictable AC loss behavior for design margin calculations.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low‑frequency ripple current of 41 mA at 120 Hz and high‑frequency ripple current of 61.5 mA at 10 kHz, characterized for both LF and HF applications.
• Leakage Current — Typical leakage current of 3.3 µA, allowing accurate low‑current system budgeting and standby behavior assessment.
• Reliability & Endurance — Rated for 2000 hours at 85 °C; endurance limits specify capacitance change within ±20%, tanδ within 200% of initial spec, and leakage not exceeding initial values after life test.
• Automotive Qualification — AEC‑Q200 rated and listed with automotive applications in the product data, suitable for use where AEC‑Q200 classification is required.
• Package & Assembly — Chip‑type SMD ("Radial, Can - SMD") in a φ5 × 5.4 mm form factor with embossed carrier taping for automated placement; recommended surface mount land size 5.3 × 5.3 mm.
• Environmental Compliance — RoHS‑compliant construction per the product specification.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — AEC‑Q200 classification and 2000 h endurance at 85 °C support use in controller and module power networks where established automotive qualification is needed.
• High‑density PCB assemblies — Chip‑type SMD design and embossed carrier taping enable automated placement for compact boards and high-volume production.
• Power filtering and decoupling in vehicle systems — Defined leakage and ripple current characteristics provide predictable performance for DC filtering and decoupling tasks in automotive electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Automotive‑grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 listing gives design teams confidence when specifying capacitors for automotive electronics.
• Compact SMD footprint: φ5 × 5.4 mm chip package with recommended land size 5.3 × 5.3 mm minimizes board space while remaining compatible with automated assembly lines.
• Quantified endurance: 2000 hours at 85 °C with defined post‑test limits for capacitance, tanδ, and leakage supports lifetime planning and reliability analyses.
• Measured AC behavior: Specified tanδ and ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz allow engineers to model AC losses and thermal behavior more accurately.
• Low leakage: Leakage current specified at 3.3 µA supports low‑current applications and improves predictability for standby and sleep modes.
• Assembly‑friendly packaging: Embossed carrier taping simplifies high‑volume placement on automated pick‑and‑place equipment.
