Overview of PCL0G391MCL1GS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor (390 µF, 4 V, SMD)
The PCL0G391MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor offering 390 µF capacitance at a 4 V rating in a compact surface-mount can package. It is designed for applications that require long-term stability, low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple current handling.
Key value propositions include a 20000-hour lifetime at 105°C, low ESR (24 mΩ at 100 kHz), RoHS compliance and AEC-Q200 qualification, making it suitable for demanding automotive and industrial power designs requiring reliable decoupling and bulk energy storage in a small footprint.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 390 µF nominal capacitance with a 4 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance for stable bulk and decoupling performance.
- Low ESR & High Ripple — ESR specified at 24 mΩ (100 kHz) with ripple current capability of 2.7 A at 100 kHz and 1.35 A at 120 Hz to support high-frequency power delivery and smoothing.
- Long-Life Reliability — Endurance specified as 20000 hours at 105°C; performance limits after endurance include capacitance within ±20% and ESR ≤150% of initial value.
- Wide Temperature Range — Operating range from −55°C to +105°C to accommodate harsh thermal environments.
- Surface-Mount, Reflow-Compatible — Chip-type SMD (radial can) designed for lead-free reflow; peak reflow allowance up to 260°C (single reflow at ≤260°C) following specified profiles.
- Compact Footprint — Package dimensions L: 6 × D: 6.3 mm with recommended land size L: 6.6 × W: 6.6 mm for space-constrained board layouts.
- Standards & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS-compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) for regulated manufacturing environments.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics — Bulk decoupling and smoothing in vehicle ECUs and power modules, leveraging long life at 105°C and AEC-Q200 qualification.
- Automotive infotainment and telematics — Local energy storage and high-frequency filtering where low ESR and high ripple current support stable supply rails.
- Automotive sensor and control systems — Compact SMD package provides reliable capacitance in space-limited control and sensing modules operating across −55°C to +105°C.
Unique Advantages
- Proven high-temperature endurance: 20000 hours at 105°C provides documented lifecycle performance for extended-service designs.
- Improved power handling: Low ESR (24 mΩ at 100 kHz) combined with rated ripple currents supports efficient high-frequency decoupling and reduces board-level heating.
- Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 status enables selection for automotive development with documented qualification pedigree.
- Compact SMD can package: Small L: 6 × D: 6.3 mm footprint and defined land pattern simplify PCB layout in dense assemblies.
- RoHS-compliant, lead-free reflow: Designed for lead-free manufacturing and single reflow at peak 260°C to align with modern assembly processes.
