Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 150 µF rated capacitance with a 10 V working voltage and tolerance of −20% to +20% for predictable energy storage and decoupling.
• High Reliability / Automotive Grade — AEC-Q200 rating and an endurance specification of 2000 h at 105°C support use in rugged and automotive-grade electronic systems.
• Low Impedance Performance — Designed for low impedance behavior; specified tangent of loss angle (tan δ) is 0.19 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, aiding performance in switching power supplies.
• Ripple Current Capability — Low-frequency ripple current of 188.5 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 290 mA (10 kHz) for handling switching and high-frequency ripple loads.
• Leakage Current & Loss — Specified leakage current of 45 µA and data based on DF measurement at 20°C, 120 Hz for reliable bias behavior.
• Compact Radial Package — Radial-lead can, φ6.3 × 11 mm (L: 1.1 × D: 0.63 cm) with 2.5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) for straightforward through-hole mounting and secure mechanical retention.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Rated from −55°C to +105°C to accommodate broad environmental conditions.
• Packaging Options — Available in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing to suit production handling preferences.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Bulk smoothing and decoupling in compact switching regulators, leveraging low impedance and specified ripple current capability.
• Automotive Electronics — Use in automotive control modules and power electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification and −55°C to 105°C operation are required.
• Compact Power Modules — Energy storage and local decoupling in size-constrained power assemblies thanks to the φ6.3 × 11 mm footprint and radial mounting.
• General DC Filtering — Line and load-side filtering for DC/DC converters and power rails that demand stable capacitance and controlled leakage.

Unique Advantages

• Small footprint, high capacitance: 150 µF in a φ6.3 × 11 mm can reduces board area while maintaining necessary bulk capacitance.
• AEC-Q200 automotive readiness: Qualification per AEC-Q200 and a −55°C to 105°C range provide confidence for automotive and harsh-environment designs.
• Engineered for switching environments: Low tan δ (0.19 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and defined ripple current specs make the device suitable for switching supply decoupling.
• Robust through-hole mounting: Radial lead construction with 2.5 mm lead spacing enables reliable mechanical and soldered connections in vibration-prone assemblies.
• Documented endurance: 2000 h life at 105°C offers a measurable baseline for long-term thermal stress and reliability planning.
