PCR1V471MCL1GS

The PCR1V471MCL1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor optimized for power conversion and filtering in demanding environments. It delivers 470 µF at 35 V with low ESR and high ripple-current capability for robust DC link, bulk smoothing, and decoupling tasks.

Designed for reliability across a wide temperature range (−55°C to 125°C) and qualified to AEC-Q200, this SMD component targets automotive and industrial power applications that require long-life performance (4,000 hours at 125°C) and lead-free reflow compatibility.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 470 µF rated capacitance with a 35 V rated voltage and a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Conductive Polymer Construction — Solid electrolyte design for stable capacitance and improved ripple handling compared with conventional electrolytics.
• Low ESR — 14 mΩ ESR measured at 20°C, 100 kHz, minimizing voltage drop and thermal loss in high-frequency power stages.
• High Ripple Current — 2.25 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 4.5 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) to support switching regulators and power modules.
• Long Endurance — Rated for 4,000 hours at 125°C with defined post-endurance limits for capacitance, tan δ and ESR.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −55°C to +125°C for use in harsh thermal environments.
• Reflow-Compatible SMD — Chip-type SMD with specified lead‑free reflow profile compatibility up to 260°C peak (pre‑heat and time limits apply).
• Compact Package — φ10 × 16 mm can-style SMD footprint with recommended land size of 10.3 × 10.3 mm for compact board layouts.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification — AEC-Q200 rated for systems that require automotive-level component qualification.
• RoHS Compliant — Conforms to RoHS directive requirements.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Electronics — Bulk smoothing and decoupling on DC‑DC converters and power rails in AEC‑Q200 systems across a wide temperature range.
• Switching Power Supplies — Output filtering and energy storage for synchronous rectifiers and high-frequency converters thanks to low ESR and high ripple-current capability.
• Industrial Control — Power rail stabilization and transient absorption in motor drives and industrial power modules operating in harsh environments.
• Embedded & Telecom Power Systems — Bulk capacitance for board-level power management where compact SMD packaging and reflow compatibility are required.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Rated ripple currents of 2.25 A (120 Hz) and 4.5 A (100 kHz) enable reliable operation in high-frequency switching environments.
• Minimal conductive losses: 14 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces I²R losses and helps maintain lower operating temperatures in power stages.
• Thermal endurance: 4,000 hours at 125°C and a −55°C to 125°C operating range provide predictable lifetime performance in elevated-temperature installations.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 rating supports integration into automotive electronic modules that require validated component reliability.
• Reflow-friendly SMD form: Chip-style SMD construction with specified lead‑free reflow compatibility simplifies automated assembly and board-level integration.
• Compact, high-capacitance can: 470 µF in a φ10 × 16 mm package offers substantial bulk capacitance for space-constrained designs.
