The PCM1V151MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount use. It delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a compact SMD can package for electronics that require reliable power filtering and decoupling.

Targeted for demanding environments, this part offers a wide operating temperature range and an extended lifetime specification, making it suitable for applications that require long-term stability and compatibility with lead-free reflow assembly processes.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage — 150 µF rated at 35 V with ±20% tolerance, suitable for bulk decoupling and local energy storage in power circuits.
• Low ESR and High Ripple Current — ESR specified at 25 mΩ (100 kHz) with ripple currents of 1 A at 120 Hz and 2 A at 100 kHz, supporting tight voltage regulation and reduced heat generation.
• High-Temperature Performance — Operating temperature range from −55 °C to +125 °C and a rated life of 8000 hours at 125 °C for sustained performance in elevated-temperature environments.
• Reliability and Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualification and endurance specifications (capacitance, tan δ, ESR, leakage) defined after 8000 hours at 125 °C.
• Surface-Mount Packaging — Chip-type, SMD can package with compact dimensions (L: 0.8 × D: 1 cm) and surface mount land size guidance (L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm).
• Assembly Compatibility — Compatible with lead-free reflow soldering (peak 260 °C) and meets RoHS directive requirements (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Designed for use in automotive systems where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• Power supply decoupling — Low ESR and high ripple-current ratings make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and decoupling on DC‑DC converters and power rails.
• High-temperature electronics — With an operating range to +125 °C and an 8000-hour life at 125 °C, it supports modules that operate in elevated-temperature environments.
• Surface-mount assemblies — SMD can package compatible with lead-free reflow processes (260 °C peak) for modern PCB assembly flows.

Unique Advantages

• Extended high-temperature lifetime: Rated for 8000 hours at 125 °C, providing measurable longevity for thermal-stressed designs.
• Low ESR at high frequency: 25 mΩ at 100 kHz enables effective high-frequency decoupling and helps minimize voltage ripple.
• High ripple-current capability: Specified ripple currents (1 A @ 120 Hz, 2 A @ 100 kHz) support power stages with significant AC stress.
• AEC-Q200 qualified: Qualification suitable for applications requiring established component-level reliability standards.
• Lead-free reflow compatible: Supports peak 260 °C reflow, aligning with contemporary lead-free assembly requirements.
• RoHS compliant: Conforms to 2011/65/EU and (EU)2015/863 for restricted substances compliance.
