PCV1E271MCL1GS

The PCV1E271MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount assembly. It delivers 270 µF nominal capacitance at a 25 V rating with low ESR and high ripple-current capability.

Targeted for demanding power applications including automotive systems, this SMD capacitor combines high ripple handling, low loss, and long rated life to support reliable DC bus smoothing, power conversion, and decoupling in compact designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 25 V with a tolerance of −20% to +20%.
• Low Loss & Stable Behavior — tan δ 0.12 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting low dissipation in AC conditions.
• Low ESR — 27 mΩ ESR specified at 20°C, 100 kHz, enabling efficient high-frequency performance and reduced heat generation.
• High Ripple Current Capability — 1.35 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.7 A at 100 kHz (high frequency) for robust handling of switching and converter ripple.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1350 µA after voltage application conditions as defined in the datasheet.
• Long Life / Endurance — Rated for 3000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage, meeting the series’ high-temperature long-life specifications.
• Temperature Range — Operational from −55°C to +105°C to accommodate a wide range of thermal environments.
• Surface-Mount Can Package — Chip-type, radial can SMD construction with physical size φ10 × 12.7L (D: 10 mm, L: 12.7 mm) and surface-mount land size L: 10.3 mm × W: 10.3 mm.
• Assembly & Packaging — Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing; compatible with lead-free reflow profiles (peak reflow conditions referenced in the series datasheet).
• Compliance & Qualification — RoHS compliant and AEC-Q200 qualified for automotive-grade applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Power Systems — Bulk smoothing and DC rail stabilization in automotive electronic subsystems where AEC-Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
• DC–DC Converters — Input/output filtering in converter stages that demand high ripple-current capability and low ESR at switching frequencies.
• Power Supply Decoupling — Local energy reservoir and decoupling for power ICs and regulators to reduce voltage ripple and improve transient response.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple-current capability: 2.7 A at 100 kHz and 1.35 A at 120 Hz support rigorous switching environments and reduce thermal stress on the capacitor.
• Low ESR for efficient performance: 27 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes losses and helps maintain cooler operation under load.
• Long high-temperature life: 3000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage delivers predictable aging and durability for long-term designs.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 rating enables use in automotive electronics where industry qualification is required.
• Surface-mount can format with tape packaging: Compact φ10 × 12.7L SMD package and embossed carrier taping simplify automated assembly and high-volume production.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for deployment in regulated markets and manufacturing environments.
