UVY1E222MHD

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are energy storage components which have grown to become a vital part in many modern applications. With impressive energy density and power density, long life and high reliability, they are amongst the most cost-effective components available. The UVY1E222MHD is a radial-leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for use in numerous power supply applications in industrial, automotive and consumer electronics. This component specializes in providing stable energy distribution and filtering noise along the range of its capacitance range. The particular component is a miniature aluminum electrolytic capacitor constructed in a cylindrical aluminum can with a leaded bipolar radial type lead frame. The component features snap-in and snap-on mounting to suitable mounting hardware. Internal components of the device include a conductive electrolyte, a positive and negative electrode, and a tactile coating layer of impenetrable insulating material. The chip capacitor construction is basic and consists of aluminum foil plates loaded with erosive paper and inserted into the aluminum can. The fused cover eliminates gas evaporation, meaning the component is able to deliver long-term low-loss performance over a wide temperature range with an outstanding hourly high-frequency voltage-proof rating. From a performance standpoint, the UVY1E222MHD can handle an operating temperature range of -40 to +105°C, rated insulation resistance of 3000 Meg Ohms, and capacitance that range from 0.1μF to 10,000μF. The component is compliant with UL 94V-0 and UL 1414 standards while providing robust operational parameters. The device has a rated voltage range from 63 to 450 VDC and is compliant with both AEC-Q200 and IEC 60384-16 standards. The rated ripple current for the device is 61500 mA. The underlying principle of operation behind aluminum capacitors is voltage storage, allowing for smooth and efficient power delivery. When an applied voltage is applied across the two electrodes, electrons migrate from one electrode to the other. This creates an electric field which store energy in the form of an electric charge. Aluminum capacitors are able to withstand high voltages and are thus suitable for an array of power applications. At the end of the day, aluminum electrolytic capacitors provide numerous benefits. They are smaller and cheaper than competing capacitors while also operating in harsher, higher temperature environments than ceramic capacitors and tantalum capacitors. The UVY1E222MHD is just one of many aluminum electrolytic capacitor options designed for power supply applications.
