PCF1E6R8MCL1GS

The PCF1E6R8MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a compact can-style surface-mount package. It provides 6.8 µF capacitance at 25 V with low ESR and robust ripple-current capability for power filtering and decoupling in space-constrained designs.

Designed for demanding environments, this part delivers long-term stability with a rated temperature range of −55°C to +105°C, a 2000-hour load life at 105°C, RoHS compliance and AEC‑Q200 qualification for automotive applications.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 6.8 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance, rated for 25 V operation.
• Low ESR / High-frequency performance — ESR of 80 mΩ measured at 20°C, 100 kHz supports high-frequency decoupling and stable impedance up to 100 kHz.
• High ripple-current capability — Rated ripple current of 600 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 1.2 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) for effective smoothing in power stages.
• Leakage & loss characteristics — Leakage current specified at 85 µA and tan δ ≤ 0.12 (measured at 20°C, 120 Hz) for predictable static and dynamic performance.
• Reliability & endurance — Load-life rating: 2000 hours at 105°C. Meets AEC‑Q200 qualification and is RoHS compliant.
• Surface-mount package — Compact φ6.3 can-style SMD offering radial can form-factor suitable for automatic placement; recommended PCB land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm.
• Manufacturing compatibility — Compatible with lead-free reflow processes up to a 260°C peak per series soldering guidance.

Typical Applications

• Automotive control modules — AEC‑Q200 qualified performance for decoupling and bulk filtering in electronic control units and power modules.
• DC–DC converters and power supplies — Low ESR and high ripple capability make it suitable for output filtering and transient suppression.
• Industrial power electronics — Robust temperature range (−55°C to +105°C) and 2000‑hour life at 105°C for continuous high-temperature operation.
• Compact consumer and embedded systems — Small can-style SMD package supports space-constrained PCB layouts while maintaining power integrity.

Unique Advantages

• Low equivalent series resistance: 80 mΩ at 100 kHz reduces voltage drop and losses in high-frequency circuits.
• High ripple-current handling: 600 mA (120 Hz) and 1.2 A (100 kHz) ratings support demanding switching-power applications.
• Temperature and endurance robustness: −55°C to +105°C operating range with a 2000-hour life at 105°C for reliable long-term operation in harsh environments.
• AEC‑Q200 qualification: Enables use in automotive-grade designs where formal component qualification is required.
• Lead-free reflow compatible: Supports modern assembly processes with peak reflow compatibility up to 260°C as specified for the series.
• Compact SMD can form factor: φ6.3 can-style package with a small PCB land footprint for high-density designs.
