Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF nominal capacitance rated at 35 V with ±20% tolerance, providing bulk energy storage for power rails.
• High Temperature Endurance — Rated operating temperature range from -55°C to 135°C with a guaranteed lifetime of 4000 hours at 135°C.
• Low ESR and High Ripple Handling — Low equivalent series resistance of 11 mΩ at 100 kHz and ripple-current capability of 615 mA at 120 Hz and 4.1 A at 100 kHz for demanding power applications.
• Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and designed for high reliability; endurance and damp-heat characteristics are specified in the product datasheet.
• Packaging & Mounting — Surface-mount radial can (SMD) package, compact footprint with case dimensions L: 1.65 × D: 1.00 cm and recommended land size L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electrical systems — Suitable for electronic modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance up to 135°C are required.
• High-temperature power electronics — Designed for circuits that demand long-life capacitors under elevated ambient temperatures and continuous ripple stress.
• High-ripple power rails — Low ESR and high ripple-current ratings make this part appropriate for smoothing and decoupling in high-frequency and high-current environments.

Unique Advantages

• Long high-temperature life: 4000 hours at 135°C provides predictable aging characteristics for designs exposed to sustained heat.
• Measurable low ESR: 11 mΩ at 100 kHz reduces losses and heat generation in high-frequency applications.
• High ripple capacity: Rated for 615 mA at 120 Hz and 4.1 A at 100 kHz to support high-current and switching power supplies.
• AEC-Q200 qualification: Engineered and qualified for high-reliability applications, supporting specification-driven automotive and industrial programs.
• Compact SMD can: Radial, can-style surface-mount package (1.65 × 1.00 cm) balances capacitance with a small board footprint.
• RoHS compliant: Meets environmental regulatory requirements for lead-free assembly and restricted substances.
