PCM1J220MCL4GS

The PCM1J220MCL4GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic SMD capacitor designed for high-reliability, high-temperature applications. As a chip-type, higher-capacitance device in a radial can SMD package, it delivers low ESR and robust ripple-current handling for demanding power systems.

Targeted use cases include automotive electronics and other systems exposed to elevated ambient temperatures, where its AEC‑Q200 qualification, RoHS compliance, and lead‑free 260°C reflow compatibility support long-term, manufacturable designs.

Key Features

• Dielectric & Construction — Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a chip-type radial can SMD package for stable performance and higher usable capacitance.
• Capacitance & Voltage — 22 µF rated capacitance at 63 V with ±20% tolerance for energy storage and decoupling in medium-voltage circuits.
• Temperature Range — Rated for operation from −55°C to +125°C to support high‑temperature environments.
• Lifetime at Temperature — Rated lifetime of 6000 hours at 125°C (part-specific rating for D = 6.3 mm), providing defined endurance for thermal stress applications.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Current — ESR specified at 45 mΩ (100 kHz) and ripple-current ratings of 1.2 A at 100 kHz and 600 mA at 120 Hz to minimize losses and support switching power stages.
• ESR Stability after Endurance — ESR performance maintained after endurance testing, with ESR specified at 100 kHz and validated at −40°C per datasheet requirements.
• Manufacturing & Soldering — Surface-mount package compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering up to a 260°C peak for standard SMT assembly processes.
• Reliability & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant to address regulated markets and automotive reliability expectations.
• Mechanical Footprint — Compact dimensions L 8 × D 6.3 mm with recommended land pattern 6.6 × 6.6 mm and maximum seated height of 8 mm for dense board layouts.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Electronics — Suitable for decoupling and output filtering in ECUs and power modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and 125°C operation are required.
• DC–DC Converter Output Smoothing — Low ESR and high high‑frequency ripple current rating support stable output filtering in switching regulators.
• Sensor and Actuator Power Conditioning — Provides stable energy buffering and noise suppression for sensor interfaces and actuator drivers operating at elevated temperatures.
• High‑Temperature Electronics — Components and modules exposed to elevated ambient temperatures that need verified endurance and soldering compatibility for SMT assembly.

Unique Advantages

• Defined High‑Temperature Endurance: Rated for 6000 hours at 125°C (D = 6.3 mm), enabling predictable lifetime planning in thermal-stressed designs.
• High Ripple Capability with Low Losses: 1.2 A (100 kHz) ripple rating combined with 45 mΩ ESR reduces power dissipation and supports higher switching frequencies.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualification: Qualification for automotive reliability provides confidence for vehicle‑grade and other high‑reliability applications.
• SMT‑Friendly Assembly: Lead‑free reflow compatibility to 260°C enables integration into modern SMT manufacturing flows without special soldering processes.
• Compact Footprint: 8 × 6.3 mm component size with a 6.6 × 6.6 mm recommended land pattern minimizes PCB area for dense power boards.
• RoHS Compliant: Conforms to RoHS requirements for global regulatory compatibility.
