PCJ0E561MCL4GS

The PCJ0E561MCL4GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic SMD capacitor offering 560 µF capacitance at a 2.5 V rated voltage. It is a chip-type, low-ESR aluminum capacitor optimized for applications that demand higher capacitance and high ripple current handling in compact surface-mount form factors.

Designed with automotive-grade reliability in mind, the device is AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS compliant, and specified for a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C. Its combination of low ESR, high ripple-current capability and lead-free reflow compatibility makes it suitable for demanding electronic systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 560 µF rated capacitance at 2.5 V for bulk energy storage and decoupling in low-voltage power rails.
• Low ESR — 13 mΩ equivalent series resistance measured at 100 kHz, supporting improved efficiency and lower dissipation under AC conditions.
• High ripple-current capability — Rated ripple current of 1.8 A at 120 Hz and 3.6 A at 100 kHz to support high-frequency and low-frequency ripple environments.
• Thermal and lifetime specification — Load life specified as 2000 hours at 105°C, with operating temperature range from −55°C to +105°C.
• Surface-mount 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 compact board layouts.
• Manufacturing and process compatibility — Lead-free reflow soldering compatible with a 260°C peak reflow profile for standard surface-mount assembly.
• Reliability and compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) for regulated environments.
• Polarized device — Polarized electrolytic capacitor with ±20% capacitance tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — Suitable for bulk decoupling and energy buffering in automotive modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and extended high-temperature life are required.
• Power supply filtering — Low ESR (13 mΩ at 100 kHz) and rated ripple currents (1.8 A at 120 Hz, 3.6 A at 100 kHz) support power-rail smoothing and noise suppression.
• Compact surface-mount designs — Small radial can SMD footprint (8 × 6.3 mm) and reflow compatibility enable high-density board layouts in space-constrained systems.

Unique Advantages

• Low-loss power handling: 13 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces heat and loss in high-frequency circuits, improving efficiency.
• High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple currents at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz allow the capacitor to handle a wide range of ripple profiles without performance degradation.
• Thermal endurance: 2000-hour load life at 105°C demonstrates sustained performance in elevated-temperature environments.
• SMD process ready: Lead-free reflow compatibility to a 260°C peak enables integration with standard surface-mount assembly flows.
• Automotive-capable qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification supports use in regulated automotive electronic designs.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant to 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863 for restricted substances.
