Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 47 µF nominal capacitance with a 100 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for medium-voltage power applications.
• Low Impedance / Low Loss — Impedance of 280 mΩ and tanδ (DF) of 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling effective ripple attenuation and stable performance.
• High Temperature Endurance — Endurance specified at 5000 hours at +105°C (as per series endurance ratings), supporting continuous operation in elevated-temperature environments.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 173.4 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 340 mA (200 kHz), useful for filtering and decoupling under AC ripple stress.
• Controlled Leakage — Leakage current specified at 141 µA, measured under the datasheet conditions for predictable DC leakage behavior.
• Robust Temperature Range — Operational from −55°C to +105°C to accommodate wide environmental variations.
• Radial Lead Package — φ10 × 20 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and bulk/bag packaging options for flexible assembly handling.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified & RoHS Compliant — Series qualification to AEC‑Q200 and RoHS compliance are indicated in the product data.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — AEC‑Q200 qualification, −55°C to +105°C range, and 5000 h endurance at 105°C make this capacitor suitable for on-board power modules and control electronics that require reliable energy storage and filtering.
• Power supply filtering — Low impedance, low tanδ, and defined ripple current ratings support smoothing and ripple suppression in DC power rails.
• High-temperature systems — Specified endurance at +105°C and controlled leakage current enable stable performance in elevated-temperature environments.

Unique Advantages

• AEC‑Q200 qualification: Demonstrates series-level suitability for automotive-grade applications where component qualification is required.
• Long life at elevated temperature: 5000 hours endurance at +105°C provides predictable long-term behavior for sustained thermal stress.
• Low loss and low impedance: Tanδ of 0.08 and 280 mΩ impedance support efficient ripple damping and minimized dissipation in power circuits.
• Defined ripple performance: Published low- and high-frequency ripple current values allow designers to size components against real ripple loading conditions.
• Compact radial can: φ10 × 20 mm package with 5 mm lead spacing offers a small footprint for through-hole implementations while maintaining robust capacitance and voltage rating.
• RoHS compliant and standard packaging: Bulk/bag packing options streamline procurement and production handling while meeting environmental requirements.
