PCV1V101MCL1GS

The PCV1V101MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor designed for surface-mount assembly. It delivers low equivalent series resistance and high ripple-current capability in a compact SMD can package.

Targeted at demanding electronics markets — including automotive systems — this part combines high ripple handling, long life at elevated temperature, RoHS compliance, and AEC-Q200 qualification to support reliable power decoupling and smoothing in compact designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 100 µF nominal capacitance with a 35 V rated voltage and ±20% tolerance, suitable for many power management and decoupling roles.
• Low ESR — ESR of 29 mΩ measured at 100 kHz (20°C), minimizing losses and improving transient response in power circuits.
• High Ripple Current — Rated ripple currents of 1.1 A at 120 Hz and 2.2 A at 100 kHz, enabling sustained AC stress handling in switching environments.
• Long Life & Thermal Endurance — Load life of 3000 hours at 105°C and operating temperature range of −55°C to +105°C for durability under elevated-temperature operation.
• Surface-Mount Package & Footprint — SMD can package (radial, can - SMD) with component dimensions L: 1 cm × D: 1 cm and recommended land size 1.03 cm × 1.03 cm for compact board layouts.
• Assembly Compatibility — Lead-free reflow soldering compatible with a peak of 260°C (single reflow at ≤260°C), supporting modern surface-mount manufacturing processes.
• Qualification & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant, supporting use in regulated and reliability-focused applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Provides low-ESR decoupling and high ripple tolerance for power modules and control units where AEC-Q200 qualification is required.
• DC–DC converters — Input/output smoothing and transient suppression in switching regulators benefiting from low ESR and high-frequency ripple handling.
• Power management modules — Energy storage and smoothing in compact SMD implementations that require long life at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple capability: Ripple ratings of 1.1 A (120 Hz) and 2.2 A (100 kHz) support continuous AC stress in switching applications.
• Very low ESR: 29 mΩ at 100 kHz reduces power loss and improves voltage stability during load transients.
• Extended high‑temperature life: 3000 hours at 105°C endurance specification supports long-term reliability in hot operating environments.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance address stringent reliability and environmental requirements.
• Reflow-ready SMD can: Compatible with lead-free reflow (peak up to 260°C) for modern assembly flows while keeping PCB footprint compact (1.03 cm × 1.03 cm land).
