Overview of PCJ0G391MCL1GS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum SMD Capacitor, 390 µF, 4 V
The PCJ0G391MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount applications. It delivers high capacitance and low equivalent series resistance in a compact radial can SMD package, targeting demanding electronic systems that require robust ripple handling and long-term stability.
Key value propositions include low ESR performance (14 mΩ at 100 kHz), high ripple-current capability, AEC-Q200 qualification for automotive use, and a load life rated to 2000 hours at 105 °C—making it suitable for designs that need reliable power decoupling and energy storage under elevated temperature conditions.
Key Features
- Core Construction Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolyte in a chip (radial can SMD) package for higher capacitance density.
- Low ESR & High-Frequency Performance ESR specified at 14 mΩ (100 kHz) with a high-frequency ripple current rating of 3.47 A at 100 kHz for improved power delivery and reduced losses.
- High Ripple Current (Low Frequency) Rated ripple current of 1.735 A at 120 Hz to support substantial AC ripple in power rails.
- Temperature and Lifetime Operating range −55 °C to 105 °C with a load life specified as 2000 hours at 105 °C.
- Package & Mounting Surface-mount (radial can SMD) with body dimensions L: 8 × D: 6.3 mm and recommended land size L: 6.6 × W: 6.6 mm for compact PCB layouts.
- Soldering Compatibility Lead-free reflow compatibility with peak soldering temperature correspondence up to 260 °C.
- Polarity & Tolerance Polarized capacitor with capacitance 390 µF and tolerance ±20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
- Standards & Compliance AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
Typical Applications
- Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and high ripple-current capability make this capacitor suitable for automotive electronics requiring stable power filtering and decoupling under elevated temperature and vibration conditions.
Unique Advantages
- Low ESR (14 mΩ at 100 kHz): Reduces AC losses and heat generation during high-frequency operation, improving power-stage efficiency.
- High ripple-current handling: Supports both 120 Hz and 100 kHz ripple levels (1.735 A and 3.47 A respectively), enabling reliable smoothing of noisy power rails.
- Compact SMD radial can: Small footprint (8 × 6.3 mm) and defined land pattern simplify board layout while delivering high capacitance.
- Long high-temperature life: 2000 hours at 105 °C provides predictable endurance for designs exposed to sustained elevated temperatures.
- Automotive-ready qualification: AEC-Q200 status gives design confidence for vehicle electronics and other demanding applications.
- RoHS compliant and lead-free reflow capable: Meets environmental directives and modern assembly processes with a 260 °C peak reflow correspondence.
