• Wide temperature range — Rated for operation from -55 °C to 125 °C to meet elevated ambient and on-board temperature conditions.
• Long life at high temperature — Designed for a lifetime of 6000 hours at 125 °C for extended field reliability (φD = 6.3 mm case).
• AEC‑Q200 qualified — Meets AEC‑Q200 qualification for components requiring enhanced reliability.
• RoHS compliant — Conforms to RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863) requirements.
• SMD, lead‑free reflow compatible — Chip can package supports lead‑free reflow soldering with a 260 °C peak; reflow up to two times per datasheet guidance.
• Compact package — SMD can with dimensions L: 6 × D: 6.3 mm and recommended land pattern L: 6.6 × W: 6.6 mm for space‑constrained designs.
• Polarized — Designed for polarity-aware DC applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive power modules — AEC‑Q200 qualification and high-temperature rating make this capacitor suitable for vehicle electronics power filtering and smoothing.
• DC‑DC converters — Low ESR and high ripple‑current capability support switching regulator output filtering and bulk decoupling.
• Industrial power supplies — High-temperature endurance and long lifetime at 125 °C help maintain reliability in elevated ambient environments.
• Embedded and board‑level power conditioning — Compact SMD can size provides high capacitance in confined board locations for local energy storage and noise suppression.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple handling: Specified ripple currents (1.2 A at 100 kHz, 600 mA at 120 Hz) paired with 48 mΩ ESR reduce thermal stress and improve efficiency in switching circuits.
• High‑temperature endurance: Rated for -55 °C to 125 °C with a 6000‑hour life at 125 °C, delivering predictable long-term performance in hot operating environments.
• Qualification for reliability: AEC‑Q200 qualification provides an additional level of assurance for designs requiring rigorously tested passive components.
• Lead‑free reflow compatible: Supports 260 °C peak lead‑free reflow soldering (two reflows max), simplifying assembly in modern manufacturing flows.
• Compact SMD form factor: 6 × 6.3 mm can footprint delivers 47 µF capacitance in a small board area to minimize BOM footprint and routing complexity.
• RoHS compliance: Conforms to current RoHS directives for environmental compliance in global production.
