Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 220 µF rated capacitance at 25 V for bulk decoupling and power rail stabilization.
• High Temperature Endurance — Qualified for operation from -55 °C to 135 °C with a rated life of 4000 hours at 135 °C, supporting prolonged high-temperature use.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Capacity — ESR of 18 mΩ at 100 kHz and ripple current ratings of 2.8 A at 100 kHz and 420 mA at 120 Hz to support high-frequency switching environments.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified — Meets AEC‑Q200 reliability criteria, suitable for applications requiring an automotive-grade qualification.
• Package & Mounting — Surface mount, radial can (SMD) chip package with compact dimensions (L: 1.0 cm × D: 0.8 cm) and recommended land size of 8.3 × 8.3 mm for PCB layout.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant in accordance with 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Bulk decoupling and smoothing for DC power rails in modules that require AEC‑Q200 qualification and extended high-temperature operation.
• Power supply filtering — Low ESR and high ripple current capability make this capacitor suitable for filtering and energy storage in high-frequency switching converters and regulators.
• High-temperature electronics — Devices and assemblies that operate in elevated ambient temperatures benefit from the 4000-hour life rating at 135 °C and the wide -55 °C to 135 °C operating range.

Unique Advantages

• Long high-temperature life: 4000 hours at 135 °C provides predictable service life under sustained elevated thermal stress.
• High ripple handling: 2.8 A at 100 kHz and 420 mA at 120 Hz enable reliable performance in high-frequency switching environments.
• Very low ESR: 18 mΩ at 100 kHz reduces losses and thermal rise in power-dense designs.
• Automotive-grade reliability: AEC‑Q200 qualification supports use in applications where standardized reliability screening is required.
• Compact SMD can: Small L × D footprint (1.0 × 0.8 cm) and defined land pattern simplify board integration in space-constrained layouts.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity ensures the part meets common environmental requirements.
