PCV1D560MCL2GS

The PCV1D560MCL2GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor from Nichicon's PCV series. It provides 56 µF capacitance at a 20 V rating in a compact surface-mount can package designed for applications that require low ESR, high ripple handling and extended high-temperature life.

Engineered for demanding environments, this SMD capacitor targets automotive and industrial electronics where sustained performance at elevated temperatures, low impedance at high frequency, and reliable manufacturing compatibility are required.

Key Features

• Dielectric / Construction Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic construction in a chip (SMD) can type for stable capacitance and reduced ESR compared with conventional electrolytic materials.
• Capacitance & Voltage 56 µF nominal capacitance with tolerance ±20% at 120 Hz, rated for 20 V.
• Low loss and leakage Tangent of loss angle (tan δ) 0.12 at 20°C/120 Hz and leakage current 224 µA (measured after specified conditioning).
• Low ESR & High ripple capability ESR 48 mΩ at 20°C/100 kHz, low-frequency ripple current 650 mA (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 1.3 A (100 kHz), supporting both bulk smoothing and high-frequency decoupling.
• High-temperature endurance Rated to operate from −55°C to +105°C with a load life of 3000 hours at 105°C.
• Compact SMD package Case size φ6.3 × 6L (L: 6 × D: 6.3 mm) with recommended land size 6.6 × 6.6 mm, enabling dense PCB layouts.
• Manufacturing compatibility Lead-free reflow soldering compatibility per datasheet: peak 260°C (one reflow allowed under specified conditions).
• Quality and compliance AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for regulated production environments.
• Packaging Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated assembly and storage protection.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics Power rail smoothing and decoupling in modules where AEC-Q200 qualification, high ripple capability and extended high-temperature life are required.
• Switch-mode power supplies Input/output smoothing and high-frequency decoupling using the capacitor's low ESR (48 mΩ @100 kHz) and 1.3 A high-frequency ripple rating.
• DC–DC converters and converters in industrial equipment Bulk and high-frequency filtering in compact boards where a small SMD can and reliable high-temperature performance (3000 h at 105°C) matter.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance across frequencies: Low ESR and specified ripple currents at 120 Hz and 100 kHz support both low- and high-frequency filtering needs.
• Long high-temperature life: 3000 hours endurance at 105°C provides predictable aging for temperature-stressed applications.
• Compact, board-friendly SMD form: φ6.3 × 6L package and 6.6 × 6.6 mm recommended land reduce PCB area compared with larger radial options.
• Automotive-capable qualification: AEC-Q200 rating supports deployment in automotive-grade modules and systems.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing and lead-free reflow compatibility streamline automated assembly.
• Low loss and controlled leakage: tan δ of 0.12 and 224 µA leakage current help maintain efficient power delivery and predictable bias behavior.
