Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance rated at 10 V with polarization suited for primary power filtering and decoupling.
• Wide Temperature Range — Rated for −40°C to +135°C, allowing operation in high‑temperature systems and elevated ambient conditions.
• High Endurance — 2000 hours life at 135°C under rated voltage, supporting extended duty in thermal stress environments.
• Low Frequency and High Frequency Ripple Performance — Supports 250 mA at 120 Hz and 500 mA at 10 kHz ripple currents for effective smoothing across frequency ranges.
• Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 150 mΩ measured at 100 kHz (20°C) to minimize losses and heat build-up in power circuits.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 47 µA for predictable standby and steady-state behavior.
• Robust Packaging & Assembly — Chip-type SMD radial can in embossed carrier taping, compatible with automatic pick-and-place and reflow processes; vibration resistant construction.
• Quality & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 rated and RoHS compliant, meeting industry quality and environmental directives.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronic Modules — Suitable for control modules and electronic units that require AEC‑Q200 qualification and operation across −40°C to +135°C.
• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in power rails where high ripple currents and low ESR are needed to maintain voltage stability.
• Vibration-Prone Equipment — Vibration resistant construction makes it suitable for systems subject to mechanical stress, such as motor controllers and ruggedized electronics.
• High-Temperature Systems — Applications that see prolonged elevated temperatures benefit from the 2000‑hour endurance at 135°C and the capacitor’s thermal stability.
