• Endurance — Rated for 3,000 hours at 125 °C, providing demonstrated long-term stability under elevated temperature stress.
• Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 135 mA at 120 Hz and 270 mA at 10 kHz for AC load handling in filtering and decoupling roles.
• Low ESR Value — Equivalent series resistance of 200 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, supporting lower loss in high-frequency environments.
• Package and Assembly — Surface-mount chip (radial can - SMD) format compatible with automatic mounting machines fed by carrier tape; recommended land size 8.3 mm × 8.3 mm.
• Polarized Device — Polarized aluminum electrolytic construction; leakage current spec: ≤0.01CV (µA) after 2 minutes at rated voltage and 20 °C.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and +125 °C rating make this part suitable for automotive electronic modules and control units that require reliable capacitive energy storage at elevated temperatures.
• High‑Temperature Embedded Systems — Designed for electronics operating in elevated thermal environments where long endurance and characterized low-temperature ESR are important.
• Surface‑Mount Power Assemblies — Compact SMD can package and carrier-tape compatibility support automated PCB assembly for power filtering and decoupling on densely populated boards.

Unique Advantages

• AEC‑Q200 Qualified: Provides an industry-recognized reliability baseline for use in automotive and other demanding applications.
