Overview of PCJ1C101MCL4GS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor, 100 µF, 16 V
The PCJ1C101MCL4GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount applications. It delivers low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple-current capability in a compact SMD can package, making it suitable for demanding electronic systems.
Targeted for automotive electronic systems, this AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS-compliant capacitor provides a combination of high capacitance, robust thermal endurance and lead‑free reflow compatibility for reliable operation in harsh environments.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage: 100 µF rated at 16 V, with a tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C).
- Low ESR & High-Frequency Performance: ESR of 24 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, supporting high-frequency decoupling and power conditioning.
- High Ripple Current: Rated ripple current of 1.35 A at 120 Hz and 2.7 A at 100 kHz for improved handling of AC stress and switching noise.
- Thermal Endurance: Load life of 2000 hours at 105°C; operating temperature range −55°C to +105°C.
- Package & Mounting: Surface-mount can type (radial, can - SMD) with overall size L: 8 × D: 6.3 mm and recommended land size L: 6.6 × W: 6.6 mm.
- Soldering Compatibility: SMD, lead-free reflow soldering condition with peak correspondence to 260°C.
- Reliability & Compliance: AEC-Q200 qualified and compliant to RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
- Polarized Design: Polar capacitor suitable where polarized electrolytic technology is required.
Typical Applications
- Automotive electronic systems — Use in automotive modules that require low ESR and high ripple-current capability for power filtering and decoupling under elevated temperatures.
Unique Advantages
- Low ESR for effective decoupling: 24 mΩ at 100 kHz reduces voltage ripple and improves transient response in power rails.
- High ripple-current tolerance: 2.7 A at 100 kHz (and 1.35 A at 120 Hz) supports high-power switching and frequent load transients.
- High-temperature endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C provides extended reliability for long-term operation in elevated-temperature environments.
- Surface-mount, reflow-friendly package: SMD can construction with lead‑free reflow compatibility (260°C peak correspondence) simplifies assembly in automated SMT lines.
- AEC-Q200 and RoHS compliant: Meets automotive-grade qualification and environmental compliance requirements for regulated markets.
