Overview of PCV2B150MCL1GS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor, 125 V, 15 µF

The PCV2B150MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor designed for high-voltage, long-life surface-mount applications. It combines a 125 V rated voltage with low equivalent series resistance and high ripple-current capability to support compact power and electronic systems.

Targeted for automotive and other demanding environments, this AEC‑Q200 qualified, RoHS‑compliant SMD capacitor delivers extended endurance (3000 hours at 105°C) and assembly-friendly reflow characteristics for high-reliability designs.

Key Features

  • Voltage & Capacitance Rated at 125 V with a nominal capacitance of 15 µF and tolerance of ±20% (–20% to 20%).
  • Low ESR & High Ripple Capability Measured ESR of 48 mΩ at 20°C / 100 kHz, supporting ripple currents of 1 A (120 Hz) and 2 A (100 kHz) for effective high-frequency decoupling and power filtering.
  • Long Life & Wide Temperature Range Endurance specified as 3000 hours at 105°C; operating temperature range from –55°C to +105°C.
  • Surface-Mount, Compact Package Chip-type SMD construction in a radial can form with dimensions Ø10 mm × 12.7 mm (L: 12.7 mm × D: 10.0 mm) and surface-mount land recommendation L: 10.3 mm × W: 10.3 mm.
  • Soldering & Assembly Lead-free reflow soldering compatible; peak reflow conditions: up to 260°C once, up to 250°C twice, with pre-heat and time-above-temperature limits defined for reliable soldering.
  • Qualification & Compliance AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS‑compliant, suitable for regulated design requirements.
  • Leakage & Dissipation Specified leakage current of 375 µA and tan δ (DF) of 0.12 at 20°C, 120 Hz.
  • Packaging Supplied in embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing for automated SMT assembly and storage protection.

Typical Applications

  • Automotive Power Electronics Used in vehicle electronic modules where a 125 V rating, low ESR and high ripple capacity are required for stable power rails and voltage smoothing.
  • High-Voltage SMD Power Modules Fits compact, high-voltage surface-mount designs that demand long-term endurance at elevated temperatures (3000 h at 105°C).
  • Power Supply Filtering in Harsh Environments Employed where temperature extremes (–55°C to +105°C) and robust solder reflow compatibility are part of the assembly and operating profile.

Unique Advantages

  • High Voltage Handling: 125 V rated voltage enables use in higher-voltage power stages while maintaining compact footprint.
  • Low ESR at High Frequency: 48 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz supports efficient high-frequency decoupling and minimizes power loss.
  • Strong Ripple Performance: 1 A at 120 Hz and 2 A at 100 kHz ripple current ratings allow reliable performance under dynamic load conditions.
  • Proven Endurance: 3000 hours at 105°C life rating provides predictable performance for long-term applications.
  • Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC‑Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance simplify integration into regulated automotive designs.
  • SMT-Ready Packaging: Embossed carrier taping and moisture-proof packing support automated placement and handling during manufacturing.
