PCF1A151MCL6GS

The PCF1A151MCL6GS is a conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor in a compact surface-mount can package. It delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a lead-free, reflow-compatible SMD form factor.

Engineered for demanding environments, the device is AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS compliant, and specified with a 2000-hour load life at 105°C—making it suitable for automotive power electronics and other high-temperature, high-stress applications.

Key Features

• Electrical performance — 150 µF capacitance at 10 V with ±20% tolerance; polarized electrolytic design for DC power applications.
• Low ESR — ESR of 23 mΩ measured at 100 kHz (20°C), improving transient response and reducing loss in power circuits.
• High ripple-current handling — Rated ripple current of 1.6 A at 120 Hz and 3.2 A at 100 kHz for robust AC loading.
• High-temperature endurance — Rated for operation from −55°C to +105°C with a specified load life of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• SMD, reflow compatible — Surface-mount can package designed for lead-free reflow soldering; applicable to peak reflow temperatures up to 260°C under specified conditions.
• Automotive grade and compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Compact package — Size dimensions L: 7 × D: 8 mm with recommended land pattern L: 8.3 × W: 8.3 mm for PCB layout.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power electronics — Energy smoothing and decoupling in automotive power rails where low ESR and high ripple capability improve regulator stability and thermal performance.
• Board-level power filtering — SMD package suited for surface-mount power-supply filtering in compact assemblies requiring lead-free reflow processing.
• High-temperature systems — Circuits that require reliable capacitance and ESR stability up to 105°C and extended load life.

Unique Advantages

• Low loss, high-efficiency operation: 23 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces I²R losses and improves converter efficiency under dynamic load.
• High ripple capability: 3.2 A ripple current at 100 kHz supports demanding switching applications and helps manage thermal stress.
• Proven endurance at elevated temperature: 2000 hours at 105°C demonstrates long-term stability for harsh operating environments.
• Automotive-grade reliability: AEC-Q200 qualification provides an established quality baseline for vehicle systems and other mission-critical electronics.
• Reflow-ready SMD can: Designed for lead-free reflow (up to 260°C peak under specified conditions), simplifying assembly in modern SMT production flows.
• Compact footprint: Small L: 7 × D: 8 mm package supports space-constrained designs without sacrificing ripple or lifetime performance.
