PCF1D560MCL1GS

The PCF1D560MCL1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor offering 56 µF capacitance at a 20 V rating. It combines low ESR and high ripple-current capability with long endurance to support demanding electronic power applications.

Targeted for automotive-grade use, this AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS-compliant part delivers stable performance across a wide temperature range (−55 °C to +105 °C) and includes packaging optimized for automated assembly.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF rated capacitance at 20 V with a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20 °C).
• Low Loss (tan δ) — tanδ (DF) of 0.12 measured at 20 °C, 120 Hz (at 20 V), enabling predictable reactive performance in filtering and decoupling roles.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Current — ESR of 40 mΩ measured at 100 kHz and 20 °C, supporting a high-frequency ripple current of 2.4 A (100 kHz) and a low-frequency ripple current of 1.2 A (120 Hz).
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 224 µA, suitable for power-holding and decoupling applications where controlled leakage is required.
• Endurance & Temperature Range — Rated for 2000 hours at 105 °C with an operating range from −55 °C to +105 °C.
• Package & Mounting — SMD radial can (φ10 × 8L) designed for surface-mount assembly; supplied in embossed carrier tape with moisture-proof packing for manufacturing readiness.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, aligning with automotive qualification and environmental requirements.
• Assembly Compatibility — SMD type with lead-free reflow soldering correspondence (reflow profile peak conditions provided in the series datasheet).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Suitable for electronics where AEC-Q200 qualification is required and wide temperature range and endurance are essential.
• Power rail filtering — Low ESR (40 mΩ at 100 kHz) and high ripple-current capability support effective smoothing and decoupling on DC power rails.
• High-temperature environments — Rated for 2000 hours at 105 °C and specified for operation from −55 °C to +105 °C, enabling use in thermally demanding assemblies.

Unique Advantages

• Predictable ripple handling: Explicit low-frequency (1.2 A at 120 Hz) and high-frequency (2.4 A at 100 kHz) ripple-current ratings tied to a measured 40 mΩ ESR give engineers quantifiable performance for power-stage design.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating and broad temperature endurance make this capacitor suitable for designs requiring industry-recognized reliability.
• Compact SMD form factor: φ10 × 8 mm package in embossed carrier tape reduces board space while supporting automated placement and moisture-proof handling.
• Long operational life: 2000-hour endurance at 105 °C provides a clear reliability baseline for lifecycle planning in sustained thermal stress conditions.
• Controlled leakage and dissipation: Specified leakage current of 224 µA and tanδ of 0.12 (20 °C, 120 Hz) help maintain predictable standby and AC-loss behavior in power systems.
