PCF1A470MCL1GS

The PCF1A470MCL1GS is a surface‑mount conductive‑polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a compact φ6.3 × 6 mm can. Designed for demanding electronics, it delivers low ESR and high ripple handling in a small footprint for space‑constrained power designs.

Key use cases include power‑supply decoupling, bulk smoothing and high‑frequency ripple filtering in automotive and industrial electronics where long life and temperature resilience are required. The part is AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant with a rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 47 µF nominal capacitance at 10 V DC with tolerance −20% to +20%, suitable for local energy storage and decoupling.
• Conductive‑Polymer Electrolyte — Solid polymer construction provides low ESR and stable performance for ripple and high‑frequency applications.
• Low ESR — ESR of 26 mΩ measured at 100 kHz and 20°C, enabling efficient high‑frequency decoupling and reduced conduction losses.
• High Ripple Capability — Ripple current ratings of 1.3 A at 120 Hz and 2.6 A at 100 kHz support both low‑ and high‑frequency filtering needs.
• Thermal and Endurance Rating — Rated for −55°C to +105°C operation with a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C per datasheet endurance conditions.
• Leakage & Dissipation — Leakage current specified at 94 µA and tan δ of 0.12 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz), enabling predictable power loss budgeting.
• SMD Package & Mounting — Radial can SMD package (φ6.3 × 6 mm), polarized, with recommended land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm for PCB footprint compatibility.
• Assembly Compatibility — Lead‑free reflow soldering compatible with a 260°C peak, per the series soldering recommendations.
• Packaging — Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture‑proof packing for automated SMT assembly.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Filter and decoupling in automotive modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high thermal endurance (2000 h at 105°C) are required.
• Power Supplies & DC‑DC Converters — Bulk smoothing and output filtering that benefit from low ESR (26 mΩ) and high ripple current capability.
• Industrial Control — Local energy storage and noise suppression in compact, high‑reliability industrial boards operating across −55°C to +105°C.
• High‑Frequency Decoupling — Placement near power rails for effective decoupling at 100 kHz thanks to low ESR and polymer electrolyte behavior.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple endurance: 1.3 A (120 Hz) and 2.6 A (100 kHz) ripple ratings enable reliable filtering across a wide range of switching frequencies.
• Low conduction loss: 26 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces heat generation and improves efficiency in power paths.
• Temperature and lifetime assurance: 2000‑hour load life at 105°C provides predictable aging for long‑lived designs.
• Automotive readiness: AEC‑Q200 qualification supports use in automotive electronic systems requiring industry‑level component qualification.
• Compact SMD form factor: φ6.3 × 6 mm can in embossed carrier taping simplifies board layout for space‑constrained applications.
• Manufacturing friendly: Compatible with lead‑free reflow up to a 260°C peak, supporting modern SMT assembly processes.
