Overview of PCF1E220MCL1GS – 22 µF, 25 V Conductive Polymer Aluminum SMD Capacitor
The PCF1E220MCL1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor with 22 µF capacitance and a 25 V rated voltage. It combines low ESR and high ripple-current capability with an AEC-Q200 rating and RoHS compliance for use in demanding electronics environments.
Designed for compact automated assembly, the part is available in an embossed carrier taping format with moisture-proof packing and is specified for operation from -55°C to +105°C with a 2000-hour life at 105°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 22 µF capacitance with a 25 V rated voltage and a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (measured at 120 Hz, 20°C).
- Low ESR — Equivalent series resistance of 50 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, supporting low-loss operation in high-frequency circuits.
- High Ripple Current — Low-frequency ripple current 1.1 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 2.2 A (100 kHz) for robust smoothing and decoupling under dynamic load.
- Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 275 µA (measured after rated voltage application conditions).
- Temperature & Life — Operating range -55°C to +105°C with a rated load life of 2000 hours at 105°C.
- Package & Assembly — φ10 × 8 mm can-style SMD package (radial can - SMD) supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing; compatible with lead-free reflow soldering (260°C peak correspondence as specified).
- Quality & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics — Low ESR and high ripple-current capacity make this capacitor suitable for power filtering and decoupling in automotive systems.
- DC–DC converters and voltage rails — 22 µF at 25 V provides stable decoupling and transient support on regulated rails.
- Surface-mount production lines — Compact φ10 × 8 mm SMD package and embossed carrier taping support automated placement and moisture-controlled shipping.
Unique Advantages
- Low-loss operation: 50 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces dissipation in high-frequency circuits, improving efficiency and thermal performance.
- High ripple handling: Rated for 1.1 A (120 Hz) and 2.2 A (100 kHz) ripple currents to handle dynamic supply conditions without excessive heating.
- Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in applications with demanding reliability requirements.
- Wide temperature range and proven life: Specified operation from -55°C to +105°C with 2000 hours endurance at 105°C for long-term stability under elevated temperatures.
- Assembly-ready packaging: Supplied on embossed carrier tape with moisture-proof packing and compatible with lead-free reflow profiles for modern SMT lines.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for use in regulated production environments.
