PCV1V220MCL2GS

The PCV1V220MCL2GS is a surface-mount, conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor from Nichicon’s PCV series. It delivers 22 µF capacitance at a 35 V rating in a compact chip-style can (φ6.3 × 6 mm).

Designed for applications that demand low ESR, high ripple-handling and long operating life, the device targets automotive and other high-reliability markets where wide temperature operation and extended endurance are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 22 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 35 V and ±20% tolerance at 120 Hz, 20°C.
• Low ESR & High-frequency performance — ESR of 50 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz, supporting high-frequency ripple current up to 1.3 A (100 kHz).
• Low-frequency ripple capability — Rated low-frequency ripple current of 650 mA at 120 Hz for power smoothing and decoupling tasks.
• Long life and elevated temperature endurance — Load life of 3000 hours at 105°C; operating temperature range from −55°C to +105°C.
• Leakage and dissipation characteristics — Specified leakage current of 154 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz, enabling predictable loss and standby behavior.
• SMD package & assembly compatibility — Chip-type, surface-mount can (φ6.3 × 6 mm); supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing and compatible with lead-free reflow conditions noted in the PCV series.
• Industry and environmental ratings — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant for regulated environments and automotive-grade applications.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronics — Power filtering and decoupling in electronic control modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and extended temperature range are required.
• Power conversion modules — Output smoothing and high-frequency decoupling for DC–DC converters leveraging low ESR and high ripple current capability.
• Industrial embedded systems — Bulk decoupling and energy buffering in compact SMD footprints for industrial power supplies operating across −55°C to +105°C.

Unique Advantages

• Established long-life rating — 3000 hours at 105°C provides a predictable endurance metric for high-temperature applications.
• High ripple tolerance with low losses — Combination of 1.3 A high-frequency ripple rating and 50 mΩ ESR yields effective heat and ripple handling in dense power designs.
• Compact SMD can form factor — φ6.3 × 6 mm chip-type package reduces board area while delivering polymer aluminum capacitor performance.
• Automotive-capable qualification — AEC‑Q200 rating supports use in regulated automotive systems and other environments with stringent reliability requirements.
• Predictable electrical parameters — Specified tan δ, leakage current, and ESR at defined conditions enable accurate power-loss and thermal budgeting.
• RoHS compliant — Meets current environmental directive requirements for compliant manufacturing and assembly.
