PCR1H820MCL1GS

The PCR1H820MCL1GS from Nichicon is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in an SMD can package designed for high-reliability applications. It combines an 82 µF capacitance with a 50 V rating, low ESR and high ripple current capability to support demanding electronic assemblies.

Engineered for elevated operating temperatures and long life, this AEC‑Q200 qualified part supports operation from -55 °C to 125 °C and is specified for 4000 hours at 125 °C, making it suitable for environments where thermal endurance and stable electrical performance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 82 µF nominal capacitance with a 50 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, providing stable capacitance for power-related functions.
• Low ESR: 42 mΩ equivalent series resistance measured at 100 kHz, minimizing losses and improving efficiency in high-frequency circuits.
• High Ripple Current: Rated for 950 mA at 120 Hz and 1.9 A at 100 kHz, supporting high ripple environments and dynamic load conditions.
• High-Temperature Endurance: Long life rated at 4000 hours at 125 °C; specified endurance characteristics include capacitance change within ±20% and ESR and tan δ limits after endurance tests.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operational range from -55 °C to 125 °C, with temperature characteristics specified for impedance and ESR across the range.
• SMD, Lead‑Free Reflow Compatible: Surface-mount can package designed for lead-free reflow soldering with peak temperatures up to 260 °C (reflow two times maximum under specified profile).
• Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting use in qualified automotive designs and other high-reliability systems.
• Polarized, Compact Package: Polarized aluminum can in an SMD form factor with part dimensions L: 0.8 × D: 1 cm and recommended land size L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics: Suitable for automotive systems that require AEC‑Q200 qualification and operation across -55 °C to 125 °C, where long-term thermal endurance is required.
• Power filtering and decoupling: Low ESR (42 mΩ at 100 kHz) and high ripple current ratings support filtering and decoupling in power stages and high-frequency circuits.
• Compact high-voltage SMD assemblies: 50 V rating in a compact surface-mount can makes it useful where a small, high-voltage SMD electrolytic capacitor is needed in space-constrained layouts.

Unique Advantages

• Proven high-temperature life: 4000 hours at 125 °C specification delivers predictable long-term performance in elevated-temperature environments.
• High ripple capability: Dual ripple ratings (950 mA at 120 Hz, 1.9 A at 100 kHz) allow design flexibility across low- and high-frequency applications.
• Low ESR for efficiency: 42 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces conduction losses and supports stable voltage behavior under dynamic loads.
• Assembly-ready reflow profile: Lead-free reflow compatibility to 260 °C peak simplifies surface-mount assembly and is compatible with common lead‑free SMT processes.
• AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant: Meets automotive-grade qualification and environmental compliance for regulated markets and safety-conscious designs.
• Compact SMD can package: Small footprint and defined land pattern enable easy integration into modern PCB layouts where board space is limited.
