• Leakage Current: Specified leakage current of 450 µA, suitable for applications where low steady-state leakage is required.
• Long Life & Wide Temperature Range: Endurance 5000 hours at 105°C; operating range −55°C to +105°C for reliable operation across harsh thermal environments.
• Radial Lead, Compact Package: φ16 × 15 mm can with 7.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm tolerance) in a radial, can-style package for through-hole mounting and prototyping.
• Packaging & Availability: Available in bulk (no terminal forming) / bag packing; product status: mass production. RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies: Bulk smoothing and output filtering where low impedance and high ripple capability improve transient response and regulation.
• 10 V Power Rails: Decoupling and energy storage on low-voltage rails in compact power modules and board-level converters.
• General-Purpose Electronic Equipment: Filtering and noise suppression in consumer, industrial, and instrumentation circuits calling for reliable long-life capacitors.

Unique Advantages

• Compact High-Capacitance: 1500 µF in a φ16 × 15 mm can reduces board area for designs that need substantial bulk capacitance in small envelopes.
• Designed for Switching Environments: Low impedance and specified high-frequency ripple current make it suitable for switching regulator outputs and high-speed power stages.
• Durable Under Load: 5000-hour endurance at 105°C gives predictable lifetime performance in thermally challenging applications.
• Clear Electrical Characterization: Specified tanδ, leakage current, and ripple current values provide engineering-level data for margin and thermal calculations.
• Through-Hole Robustness: Radial lead configuration with defined lead spacing and tolerance eases PCB placement, soldering, and mechanical mounting.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS-compliant construction for use in markets requiring restricted substances conformity.
