PCL0G182MCL1GS

The PCL0G182MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in an SMD radial can chip package. Designed for high-reliability applications, it delivers high capacitance and low equivalent series resistance for demanding power-management tasks.

Engineered for automotive and other high-reliability systems, the part combines low ESR, high ripple-current capability, and extended life to support local energy storage, decoupling, and ripple filtering in compact surface-mount assemblies.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 1.8 mF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 4 V, with a capacitance tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low ESR — 14 mΩ equivalent series resistance measured at 100 kHz, enabling effective high-frequency filtering and reduced voltage drop under transient loads.
• High Ripple Current — Supports 2.75 A at 120 Hz and 5.5 A at 100 kHz, suitable for power-supply smoothing and bulk-decoupling tasks where sustained ripple handling is required.
• Long Life & Wide Temperature Range — Rated for 20,000 hours at 105°C and an operating temperature range of −55°C to +105°C, supporting extended reliability in elevated-temperature environments.
• Package & Mounting — Surface-mount radial can (chip type) designed for lead‑free reflow; recommended surface-mount land size is 8.3 × 8.3 mm for PCB layout.
• Reliability & Qualification — AEC‑Q200 qualified and specified for endurance and damp‑heat performance per the series datasheet, addressing automotive-grade reliability requirements.
• Compliance — RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) and compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering conditions up to a 260°C peak as specified for this series.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Local energy storage, input filtering and decoupling in automotive modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high ripple capability are required.
• Power management modules — Bulk decoupling and ripple suppression on DC–DC converters and regulator outputs, leveraging low ESR and high ripple‑current ratings.
• Compact SMD assemblies — Surface-mount radial can form factor for designers needing higher capacitance in PCB-mounted chip-style capacitors.

Unique Advantages

• Enhanced ripple handling: Rated ripple currents of 2.75 A (120 Hz) and 5.5 A (100 kHz) reduce stress on upstream regulators and improve voltage stability under dynamic loads.
• Low-loss operation: 14 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes dissipation and supports efficient high-frequency filtering in compact board layouts.
• Extended high-temperature life: 20,000 hours at 105°C delivers long-term stability in elevated-temperature environments common to automotive and industrial electronics.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualification provides documented suitability for designs requiring recognized component-level automotive reliability.
• Lead-free assembly ready: Compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering up to the series‑specified peak temperature, simplifying OEM production flow.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity supports designs targeting markets with restricted substance requirements.
