PCV1D331MCL2GS

The PCV1D331MCL2GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor in an SMD can package, offering 330 µF capacitance at 20 V rated voltage. Designed for demanding environments, it combines low ESR and high ripple-current capability with a long load-life rating for reliable power delivery in compact assemblies.

Typical use cases include power filtering and decoupling in automotive and industrial electronics where high ripple handling, low loss, and wide temperature capability are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 330 µF nominal capacitance with ±20% tolerance rated at 20 V, suitable for bulk decoupling and energy storage in compact designs.
• Low ESR and High Ripple Current — ESR of 22 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz with low-frequency ripple current of 1.9 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current of 3.8 A (100 kHz), improving power-supply stability under dynamic loads.
• Conductive Polymer Construction — Solid polymer electrolyte provides lower loss (tan δ = 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz) and stable behavior across frequency and temperature ranges.
• Wide Temperature & Long Life — Rated for −55°C to +105°C with a load life of 3000 hours at 105°C, supporting designs that require long-term thermal endurance.
• Automotive-Grade Reliability — AEC-Q200 qualified and intended for automotive applications, offering the reliability and qualification traceability required for vehicle electronics.
• SMD Can Package & Mounting — Chip-type surface-mount radial can (φ10 × 10L) with surface-mount land size of 10.3 × 10.3 mm, supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated assembly.
• Reflow Compatibility — Lead-free reflow soldering condition correspondence up to a 260°C peak, allowing standard SMD assembly processes when following the specified reflow profile.
• Standards & Compliance — RoHS compliant; meets specified endurance, damp-heat, and soldering-heat performance from the PCV series datasheet.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronic Modules — Bulk decoupling and power conditioning in control units and in-vehicle power systems, leveraging AEC-Q200 qualification and high ripple capability.
• Power Supply Filtering — Output smoothing and transient suppression in DC–DC converters and voltage regulators where low ESR and high ripple current reduce voltage ripple.
• Industrial Embedded Systems — Energy storage and decoupling in compact SMD assemblies that require long life at elevated temperatures (3000 h at 105°C).

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 3.8 A at 100 kHz and 1.9 A at 120 Hz support demanding switching-power environments and reduce thermal stress on the capacitor.
• Low dissipation: 22 mΩ ESR and tan δ 0.12 lower power loss and improve overall converter efficiency.
• Long-term thermal endurance: 3000-hour life at 105°C provides predictable performance for extended deployments.
• SMD-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing enable high-volume automated pick-and-place and reflow assembly.
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports use in vehicle electronics where qualification is required.
• Compact footprint: φ10 × 10L (1.0 × 1.0 cm) can package balances capacitance and board-space economy for dense layouts.
