PCL0E272MCL1GS

The PCL0E272MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor engineered for demanding environments. It delivers 2.7 mF capacitance at a 2.5 V rating in a compact SMD can-style package designed for reflow assembly.

Designed for automotive and other high-reliability electronics, this AEC-Q200 qualified device offers long life at elevated temperature, low equivalent series resistance (ESR), and high ripple-current capability to support power-filtering and decoupling duties in temperature-challenging circuits.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 2.7 mF nominal capacitance with a 2.5 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance.
• Low ESR — 12 mΩ ESR specified at 100 kHz (20°C), enabling lower power dissipation under AC stress.
• High Ripple Current — 2.75 A at 120 Hz and 5.5 A at 100 kHz, supporting heavy AC ripple and high-frequency decoupling.
• Long Life & Temperature Endurance — Rated for 20,000 hours at 105°C with operating range −55°C to +105°C.
• Surface-Mount Can Package — Radial can, SMD-compatible package with recommended land size L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm and part footprint L: 1 × D: 1 cm.
• Assembly Ready — Compatible with lead-free reflow soldering; peak reflow correspondence at up to 260°C.
• Standards & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Polarized — Designed as a polarized capacitor for DC power applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic modules — Energy storage and decoupling in systems that require AEC-Q200 qualified components and long-term operation at elevated temperatures.
• Power-supply filtering — Bulk and high-frequency filtering where low ESR and high ripple-current capability reduce power loss and thermal stress.
• DC–DC converter outputs — Output smoothing and transient handling in compact surface-mount power stages.

Unique Advantages

• Extended high-temperature life: 20,000 hours at 105°C provides predictable long-term behavior in thermally stressed assemblies.
• Low-loss operation: 12 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz lowers AC losses, helping manage heat under ripple conditions.
• High ripple capability: Rated ripple currents at both low and high frequencies allow use across a range of power-frequency and switching applications.
• Reflow-capable SMD can: Package supports lead-free reflow up to 260°C peak, enabling standard surface-mount assembly flows.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification supports selection for vehicle electronics and other reliability-focused designs.
