Key Features

• Construction – Conductive polymer hybrid: Chip-type conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic design for reduced impedance and improved performance compared with traditional electrolytics.
• Capacitance & Voltage: 68 µF nominal capacitance at a 50 V rated voltage with tolerance −20% to +20%.
• Low loss and ESR: Tanδ 0.10 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz (50 V rating) and ESR 24 mΩ at 100 kHz, 20°C for low-impedance power delivery.
• High ripple current handling: Rated for 405 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.7 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), supporting high-duty power applications.
• Extended high-temperature endurance: Designed for long life with 4000 hours rated endurance at 135°C under specified conditions.
• Leakage current and reliability: Leakage current specified at 34 µA, with endurance and damp-heat characteristics defined in the datasheet.
• Mounting & packaging: Surface-mount radial can (SMD) in embossed carrier taping format for automated PCB assembly; package noted as φ8×10L with a recommended land size of 8.3 × 8.3 mm.
• Qualification & compliance: AEC-Q200 rating and RoHS compliant for use in regulated, reliability-focused designs.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics: AEC-Q200 qualification and long-term 135°C endurance make this capacitor appropriate for automotive power electronics where high temperature reliability is required.
• High-temperature power systems: Low ESR and high ripple-current capability paired with a −55°C to 135°C operating range support power modules and converters operating in elevated-temperature environments.
• Compact SMD power filtering: Chip-type surface-mount can package and low impedance characteristics suit compact board-level decoupling and smoothing in tight layouts.

Unique Advantages

• Low-impedance performance: 24 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and low tanδ reduce voltage ripple and improve transient response in power circuits.
• High ripple tolerance: Specified ripple currents of 2.7 A (100 kHz) and 405 mA (120 Hz) allow operation in both high-frequency and low-frequency stress conditions.
• High-temperature endurance: 4000 hours at 135°C provides predictable life and reliability in temperature-stressed applications.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in automotive electronics and other reliability-critical systems.
• Assembly-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping supports automated SMD placement for volume manufacturing.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliance simplifies environmental compliance for global production.
