This part provides a balance of ripple current performance, long life at elevated temperature, and AEC-Q200 qualification for applications that require automotive-grade assurance.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 63 V and ±20% tolerance for bulk energy storage and decoupling.
• Low Impedance — Characteristic impedance of 260 mΩ supports low-loss filtering and stable performance under load.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Rated ripple currents of 682.5 mA at 120 Hz and 1.05 A at 10 kHz enable robust handling of both low- and high-frequency ripple in power rails.
• Electrical Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) of 0.09 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz for predictable dissipation characteristics.
• Leakage Current — Measured leakage current of 415.8 µA, suitable for power-supply and hold-up applications where defined leakage is required.
• High-Temperature Endurance — 5000 hours rated life at 105°C for long-term reliability under elevated operating temperatures.
• Compact Radial Package — φ10 × 25 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing (±0.5 mm) and radial lead mounting for through-hole assembly and manual or automated insertion.
• AEC-Q200 Qualification — Rated AEC-Q200 for designs requiring automotive-grade component qualification.
• Packaging & Availability — Offered in bulk (no terminal forming) or bag packing; status: mass production.

Typical Applications

• Switching Power Supplies — Low impedance and high ripple current ratings support input and output smoothing in switching regulators.
• Automotive Electronics — AEC-Q200 qualification and 5000 h endurance at 105°C make it suitable for automotive power modules and control units.
• DC-DC Converters — Compact size and high-frequency ripple capability help stabilize converter outputs and improve transient response.
• Power Rail Decoupling — 220 µF capacitance and low tan δ deliver effective bulk decoupling for distributed power systems.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling across frequencies — Specified ripple current at both 120 Hz and 10 kHz supports mixed-frequency power environments without guesswork.
• Compact footprint — φ10 × 25 mm can minimizes board space while providing substantial capacitance for power-conditioning tasks.
• Long high-temperature life — 5000 hours at 105°C reduces the need for early replacement in elevated-temperature installations.
• AEC-Q200 rated — Enables use in designs that require automotive-level qualification and supply-chain traceability.
• Clear electrical characterization — Published impedance, tan δ, leakage, and ripple specifications allow straightforward thermal and reliability calculations during design.
• Through-hole robustness — Radial lead package and defined 5 mm lead spacing simplify mechanical mounting and reworkability.
