UWX1C330MCL1GB

The UWX1C330MCL1GB is a surface-mount aluminum electrolytic capacitor in Nichicon’s UWX series, offering 33 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating. It is supplied in a compact radial can SMD package intended for automated placement (embossed carrier taping) and is targeted for automotive electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification is required.

This part provides a measured loss tangent (tan δ) of 0.16 at 20°C/120 Hz, defined ripple-current performance across low and high frequencies, and a specified 2000 hour load life at 85°C, delivering defined performance for temperature- and vibration-sensitive electronic modules.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 33 µF capacitance with a 16 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance measured at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low Loss (tan δ) — tan δ of 0.16 measured at 20°C and 120 Hz, supporting predictable AC performance in filtering and decoupling roles.
• Ripple Current Performance — Low-frequency ripple current of 49 mA at 120 Hz and high-frequency ripple current of 73.5 mA at 10 kHz, specified for application-level ripple management.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 5.28 µA after rated voltage application, enabling low-standby current designs.
• Reliability & Endurance — Rated life of 2000 hours at 85°C with endurance characteristics defined by restoration to 20°C after life testing.
• Temperature Range — Operating range of −40°C to +85°C for broad environmental tolerance.
• Packaging & Mounting — Surface-mount radial can (φ6.3 × 5.4 mm) supplied in embossed carrier tape suitable for automatic placement; recommended PCB land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm.
• Compliance & Status — RoHS compliant and AEC‑Q200 listed; status: End Of Life (scheduled for discontinuation and not recommended for new designs).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Intended for automotive modules and electronic control units where AEC‑Q200 qualification and defined endurance metrics are required.
• High-density PCB assemblies — Compact SMD radial-can format and embossed carrier taping enable automated placement on compact, high-density boards.
• Power filtering and decoupling — Specified ripple-current and low tan δ values support application-level smoothing and decoupling in DC power rails.

Unique Advantages

• AEC‑Q200 qualification: Provides a clear qualification path for automotive electronics where industry stress testing is required.
• Compact SMD can: φ6.3 × 5.4 mm package minimizes board area while supporting automated assembly via embossed carrier tape.
• Defined ripple and loss metrics: Documented ripple-current values at 120 Hz and 10 kHz plus a measured tan δ of 0.16 give designers specific data for power-supply and filter design trade-offs.
• Temperature and endurance specs: −40°C to +85°C operating range and 2000 hours life at 85°C provide quantifiable reliability parameters for long-term operation.
• Low leakage current: 5.28 µA specification supports designs with low quiescent current requirements.
• RoHS compliance: Meets environmental directive requirements for lead-free assembly and regulatory needs.
