PCR1C471MCL6GS

The PCR1C471MCL6GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor in an SMD radial can package designed for high-reliability power applications. It provides 470 µF capacitance at 16 V with low equivalent series resistance and rated performance across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for demanding electronic systems.

Targeted at markets requiring robust power decoupling and energy buffering, this part combines long high-temperature endurance, low ESR/high ripple capability, and lead‑free reflow compatibility for streamlined assembly and reliable field operation.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF rated capacitance at a 16 V working voltage for bulk decoupling and energy storage.
• Low ESR & High Ripple Current — ESR of 17 mΩ measured at 100 kHz and ripple current ratings of 1.7 A at 120 Hz and 3.4 A at 100 kHz to support high-frequency and high-current power rails.
• High‑Temperature Endurance — Long life specification of 4000 hours at 125°C with defined endurance limits for capacitance, tan δ and ESR.
• Wide Operating Temperature — Rated for −55°C to +125°C operation to meet broad environmental conditions.
• SMD, Lead‑Free Reflow Compatible — Chip-type radial can SMD designed for lead‑free reflow; compatible with a peak soldering temperature of 260°C under specified profiles.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualified — AEC‑Q200 qualification for systems requiring automotive‑grade reliability.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directives (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).
• Mechanical & Land Size — Compact package with dimensions L: 1.0 cm × D: 0.8 cm and recommended surface‑mount land size 8.3 × 8.3 mm.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs) — Provides bulk decoupling and high ripple handling for vehicle power modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high‑temperature endurance are required.
• Power Supply Filtering — Low ESR and high ripple current capability make it suitable for smoothing and decoupling on DC–DC converters and power rails.
• Infotainment and Telematics Power Rails — Compact SMD form factor and reflow compatibility support dense board layouts and automated assembly for in‑vehicle electronics.

Unique Advantages

• Long High‑Temperature Life: 4000 hours at 125°C supports designs that must operate reliably in elevated-temperature environments.
• High Ripple and Low Loss: 17 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz with specified ripple currents reduces thermal rise and improves power-stage stability.
• AEC‑Q200 Qualification: Documented series qualification for applications that require proven automotive reliability frameworks.
• Lead‑Free Reflow Ready: Compatible with 260°C peak lead‑free solder profiles to support modern assembly processes.
• Wide Temperature Range: −55°C to +125°C rating enables use across harsh environmental conditions without derating performance claims in the provided specifications.
• Compact SMD Can: Small footprint (1.0 × 0.8 cm) and defined land pattern (8.3 × 8.3 mm) simplify PCB layout for space-constrained designs.
