Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1800 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 16 V and a tolerance of -20% to +20%.
• Low Impedance — Rated impedance of 32 mΩ, supporting stable performance in power delivery and decoupling roles.
• High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current of 1.656 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 1.69 A (200 kHz) to support dynamic load conditions.
• High Reliability / Endurance — Load-life rating of 5000 hours at +105°C (for applicable case sizes) for extended operational lifetime under high-temperature stress.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operational from -55°C to +105°C to accommodate a broad set of thermal environments.
• Dielectric Loss (tan δ) — tan δ = 0.16 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, for predictable loss characteristics.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 864 µA for the part, enabling predictable standby discharge behavior.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead can, size φ12.5 × 30.5 mm (lead spacing 5.0 mm, tolerance ±0.5 mm), available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing.
• Automotive Rating & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting automotive system requirements.
• Production Status — Mass production availability for supply continuity.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification plus high ripple-current capability make this capacitor suitable for onboard power stabilization in automotive systems.
• Automotive control modules — Long endurance at 105°C (5000 h) supports reliability requirements in control and ECU environments.
• Automotive auxiliary systems — Wide temperature range (-55°C to +105°C) and low impedance suit auxiliary and support circuits where consistent capacitance and ripple handling are needed.

Unique Advantages

• Designed for extended high-temperature operation: 5000-hour endurance at +105°C provides long-term stability under elevated thermal stress.
• High ripple-handling capability: Rated ripple currents of 1.656 A (120 Hz) and 1.69 A (200 kHz) help maintain voltage stability under dynamic loads.
• Low ESR/Impedance: 32 mΩ impedance reduces power loss and improves transient response in power circuits.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports integration into automotive systems requiring component-level qualification.
• Compact radial-lead form factor: φ12.5 × 30.5 mm can with 5.0 mm lead spacing fits space-constrained layouts while providing robust electrical performance.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for supply-chain and environmental requirements.
