PCJ0E471MCL1GS

The PCJ0E471MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic, chip-type surface-mount capacitor engineered for demanding power applications. It delivers high capacitance (470 µF) in a compact SMD can-style package while maintaining low ESR and high ripple-current capability.

Designed and qualified for automotive use (AEC-Q200), this part offers a robust thermal and reliability profile — including a 2000 hour load life at 105°C and RoHS compliance — making it suitable for power filtering and decoupling where long-term stability and high ripple handling are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF rated capacitance at 2.5 V, with polarization as a polar electrolytic and ±20% tolerance.
• Low ESR — ESR specified at 13 mΩ measured at 100 kHz (20°C), enabling improved transient response and lower power dissipation in high-frequency applications.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 1.8 A at 120 Hz and 3.6 A at 100 kHz to handle heavy AC stress on power rails.
• Thermal & Lifetime Performance — Rated operating temperature range of −55°C to +105°C with a specified load life of 2000 hours at 105°C for extended field reliability.
• Automotive Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified, supporting use in automotive electronic assemblies that require component-level reliability documentation.
• SMD Assembly Compatible — Chip-type SMD package designed for lead-free reflow soldering; peak reflow correspondence up to 260°C.
• Compact Package — Radial can, SMD package with dimensions L: 8 × D: 6.3 mm and recommended land size L: 6.6 × W: 6.6 mm for space-constrained PCB layouts.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive power modules — Bulk and decoupling capacitance for power rails in automotive ECUs and control modules, leveraging AEC-Q200 qualification and high ripple capability.
• DC–DC converter outputs — Output filtering where low ESR and high ripple current reduce voltage ripple and thermal stress on the capacitor.
• Infotainment and ADAS subsystems — Local energy storage and smoothing for sensitive electronics operating across −55°C to +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• High capacitance in a small footprint — 470 µF in an 8 × 6.3 mm SMD can minimizes PCB area while delivering substantial energy storage.
• Low ESR at high frequency — 13 mΩ (100 kHz) reduces losses and supports improved transient fidelity in high-speed power circuits.
• Robust ripple handling — Specified ripple currents at both low and high frequencies help manage thermal loading during heavy AC stress.
• Automotive-grade reliability — AEC-Q200 qualification and a 2000-hour life at 105°C provide documented endurance for automotive electronics designs.
• Assembly-friendly — SMD chip construction with lead-free reflow compatibility to a 260°C peak eases integration into automated manufacturing processes.
• Wide operating temperature range — −55°C to +105°C supports stable performance across typical automotive thermal environments.
