• Conductive Polymer Construction Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolyte in a chip-type surface-mount form factor for compact board-level integration.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Current ESR of 23 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, with ripple ratings of 900 mA at 120 Hz and 1.8 A at 100 kHz to support high-frequency and high-current applications.
• Leakage and Loss Specified leakage current of 198 µA and tanδ (DF) of 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz.
• High Temperature Endurance Operational temperature range from -55°C to 135°C with a rated endurance of 4000 hours at 135°C.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified & RoHS Compliant AEC‑Q200 rating and compliance with RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) for regulated-environment use.
• Assembly & Packaging Surface-mount construction with lead‑free reflow soldering compatibility (260°C peak per datasheet) and supplied in embossed carrier taping / moisture-proof packing. Case size: φ10 × 8 L with recommended land size 10.3 × 10.3 mm.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Systems — Suited for automotive electronics where AEC‑Q200 qualification and wide temperature range are required.
• High‑Temperature Electronics — Use in modules and assemblies that operate up to 135°C or that require long endurance at elevated temperatures (4000 h at 135°C).
• High‑ripple Current Power Designs — Components and circuits that demand low ESR and high ripple-current capability benefit from this capacitor’s electrical characteristics.
• Surface‑mount, Lead‑free Assemblies — Compact SMD form and compatibility with lead‑free reflow make it appropriate for modern SMT production flows.

Unique Advantages

• Stable high‑temperature performance: Rated for -55°C to 135°C with a 4000‑hour endurance at 135°C, delivering predictable behavior in elevated-temperature environments.
• Low ESR for improved power handling: 23 mΩ (100 kHz) ESR reduces losses and supports higher ripple currents, improving efficiency in power stages.
• High ripple-current capability: 900 mA at 120 Hz and 1.8 A at 100 kHz enable reliable filtering and decoupling under both low- and high-frequency stress.
• Automotive‑grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating supports use in regulated automotive and similarly demanding applications.
• Manufacturing and supply readiness: Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture‑proof packing and listed as mass production status for volume manufacturing.
• Lead‑free reflow compatibility: SMD package designed to withstand lead‑free reflow peak temperatures specified in the datasheet for standard SMT assembly.
