PCV1J560MCL2GS

The PCV1J560MCL2GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic SMD capacitor from Nichicon’s PCV series. It delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a compact surface-mount radial-can package, with a rated capacitance of 56 µF at 63 V and a capacitance tolerance of ±20%.

Designed for demanding temperature and endurance requirements, this part is AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS compliant, and specified for a load life of 3000 hours at 105°C. Its lead‑free reflow compatibility supports modern manufacturing processes.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF rated capacitance with a 63 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable where moderate energy storage at elevated voltages is required.
• Low ESR / High Ripple Capability — ESR of 28 mΩ measured at 100 kHz and high ripple current handling of 3.4 A at 100 kHz (1.7 A at 120 Hz), supporting high-frequency and high-ripple applications.
• High Temperature Endurance — Specified operating range from −55°C to +105°C and a rated load life of 3000 hours at 105°C to support long-term operation under elevated temperatures.
• Surface-Mount, Lead‑Free Reflow — SMD radial-can package (dimensions L: 1.27 × D: 1.00 cm) with recommended land size (L: 1.03 × W: 1.03 cm) and compatibility with lead‑free reflow soldering up to a 260°C peak.
• Qualification & Compliance — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting regulated and automotive applications.
• Stable Temperature Characteristics — Impedance stability across −55°C to +105°C (Z ratios specified ≤1.25 at 100 kHz), ensuring consistent performance across the rated temperature range.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — AEC‑Q200 qualification and high temperature endurance make this capacitor suitable for automotive electronic modules requiring reliable, long-life SMD capacitors.
• High‑Voltage SMD Power Designs — 63 V rating combined with low ESR and high ripple-current capability supports power supply filtering and energy buffering in compact surface‑mount assemblies.
• Lead‑Free Reflow Assemblies — Specifically suited to manufacturing flows that require lead‑free reflow compatibility up to a 260°C peak.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: 3.4 A at 100 kHz (1.7 A at 120 Hz) enables handling of significant AC stress without compromising performance.
• Low ESR: 28 mΩ at 100 kHz minimizes losses and voltage drop under load—beneficial for high-frequency decoupling and power stages.
• Long life at elevated temperature: Rated for 3000 hours at 105°C, offering predictable end-of-life behavior in thermally demanding environments.
• AEC‑Q200 qualified & RoHS compliant: Meets automotive qualification and environmental requirements for regulated product designs.
• SMD-ready, lead‑free reflow: Compact radial-can SMD form factor and 260°C peak reflow compatibility simplify assembly in modern production lines.
