Overview of PCV1E271MCL2GS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor, 270 µF, 25 V
The PCV1E271MCL2GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor in a surface-mount can package. It delivers 270 µF nominal capacitance at a 25 V rating with low equivalent series resistance and high ripple-current capability.
Designed for demanding environments, this part targets automotive and other high-reliability applications that require long life and stable performance across a wide temperature range. Key value points include low ESR, high-frequency ripple handling, AEC-Q200 qualification, and a rated life of 3000 hours at 105°C.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 270 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 25 V and capacitance tolerance of -20% to +20%.
- Low ESR & High Ripple Capacity — ESR of 23 mΩ (measured at 20°C/100 kHz) with high-frequency ripple current of 3.7 A (100 kHz) and low-frequency ripple current of 1.85 A (120 Hz), supporting robust power decoupling and smoothing.
- Temperature & Endurance — Rated for operation from -55°C to +105°C with a load life of 3000 hours at 105°C.
- Reliability & Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, addressing automotive and regulated-environment requirements.
- Surface-Mount Can Package — Chip-type SMD can with dimensions φ10 × 10 mm and surface mount land size L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm for compact board integration.
- Assembly Compatibility — SMD type supporting lead-free reflow soldering with a peak temperature correspondence up to 260°C.
- Packaging — Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated placement and storage protection.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power modules — Low ESR and 3.7 A high-frequency ripple rating make this capacitor suitable for smoothing and decoupling in vehicle power electronics.
- DC–DC converters and power rails — 270 µF at 25 V with high ripple capability supports stable output filtering in on-board converters.
- Harsh-environment electronics — A -55°C to +105°C operating range combined with a 3000-hour life at 105°C supports long-term use in temperature-extreme environments.
- Compact SMD assemblies — Chip can package (φ10 × 10 mm) and embossed carrier taping enable automated surface-mount assembly in space-constrained designs.
Unique Advantages
- High ripple-handling capability: The combination of low ESR (23 mΩ at 100 kHz) and 3.7 A HF ripple current improves voltage stability on high-frequency power rails.
- Long-term thermal endurance: Rated 3000 hours at 105°C, delivering predictable aging and retention for designs that demand extended high-temperature operation.
- AEC-Q200 qualification: Meets automotive component qualification standards for use in vehicle systems requiring industry-recognized reliability.
- SMD can for automated assembly: Chip-type surface-mount can and embossed carrier taping support high-volume, automated production workflows.
- Lead-free reflow compatible: Conforms to lead-free reflow soldering conditions with peak-temperature correspondence to 260°C, easing integration into modern Pb-free manufacturing processes.
- Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant for designs that require restricted-substance conformity.
