Overview of PCJ1A560MCL1GS – Conductive Polymer SMD Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor, 56 µF, 10 V
The PCJ1A560MCL1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor designed for applications requiring low ESR and high ripple current in a compact chip package. With a rated capacitance of 56 µF at 10 V and a temperature range from −55 °C to 105 °C, it targets demanding power and electronic control applications that benefit from high-frequency performance and long-term stability.
Key value propositions include low equivalent series resistance, high ripple current capability, AEC‑Q200 qualification, and a 2000‑hour load life at 105 °C, making the device suitable for robust, space-constrained designs where electrical performance and reliability are critical.
Key Features
- Capacitance and Voltage: 56 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 10 V and tolerance of −20% to +20% at 120 Hz, 20 °C.
- Low ESR: ESR of 28 mΩ measured at 20 °C / 100 kHz, supporting efficient high-frequency decoupling and reduced power loss.
- High Ripple Current: Designed for high ripple environments with 1.155 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.31 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling reliable operation under dynamic load conditions.
- Temperature and Endurance: Operating temperature range −55 °C to 105 °C and rated load life of 2000 hours at 105 °C, with defined limits for capacitance change, tan δ and ESR after endurance testing.
- AEC‑Q200 Qualified & RoHS Compliant: AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance support use in regulated and quality-driven applications.
- SMD Chip Package: Compact radial can SMD package, size φ5 × 6 mm, surface-mount land recommendation 5.3 × 5.3 mm, packaged in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for production SMT processes.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Electronics: AEC‑Q200 qualification and high endurance at 105 °C make this capacitor suitable for automotive control modules and power electronics where vibration and thermal stress are present.
- Power Supply Filtering: Low ESR and high ripple current ratings support input/output filtering and smoothing in DC–DC converters and power rails.
- High-Frequency Decoupling: The low ESR at 100 kHz and compact SMD package suit decoupling near high-speed power ICs and modules to improve transient response.
Unique Advantages
- Reliable High‑Temperature Performance: 2000 hours rated life at 105 °C provides defined endurance data for thermal stress planning and long-term reliability calculations.
- Reduced Power Loss: Low ESR (28 mΩ @100 kHz) minimizes heating and improves efficiency in high-current applications.
- Compact Footprint: φ5 × 6 mm SMD can allows designers to save board space while maintaining substantial capacitance and ripple capability.
- AEC‑Q200 Qualification: Enables use in regulated automotive and similarly demanding environments where component qualification is required.
- Manufacturing Friendly Packaging: Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing to support automated SMT assembly and handling.
