Overview of PCW0J151MCO1GS – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor (150 µF, 6.3 V, 125°C)
The PCW0J151MCO1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic, chip-type capacitor designed for surface-mount applications. It combines low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a compact SMD can package sized 6 × 5 mm.
Targeted at demanding environments, this part delivers 125°C reliability with an endurance rating of 2000 hours at 125°C and carries AEC-Q200 qualification, making it suitable for thermal- and power-stressed electronic systems.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 150 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 6.3 V and ±20% tolerance.
- Low ESR — ESR specified at 18 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, supporting reduced loss and improved power efficiency.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple currents of 790 mA at 120 Hz and 1.58 A at 100 kHz enable effective smoothing under dynamic load.
- High-Temperature Endurance — Designed for operation from −55 °C to +125 °C with a ripple load life of 2000 hours at 125 °C; capacitance and ESR remain within specified limits after endurance testing.
- Reliability & Automotive Grade — AEC-Q200 qualified and compliant to RoHS (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863), supporting regulated and automotive applications.
- Surface-Mount Package — Chip-type radial can SMD package; physical size 6 × 5 mm with recommended land size 5.3 × 5.3 mm for PCB layout.
- Lead-Free Reflow Compatible — Compatible with lead-free reflow soldering up to a 260 °C peak (per manufacturer guidance).
- Polarized Device — Polar capacitor suitable for DC bias applications where polarity is observed.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Electronics — Use in vehicle electronic modules where AEC-Q200 qualification and 125 °C endurance are required.
- High-Temperature Systems — Suitable for electronic systems and assemblies operating across −55 °C to +125 °C that need stable capacitance and ESR under thermal stress.
- Compact SMD Power Assemblies — Ideal for surface-mount power modules and compact PCB designs requiring a small can-style SMD capacitor (6 × 5 mm) with robust ripple handling.
Unique Advantages
- High-Temperature Reliability: Rated for operation to 125 °C with a specified ripple load life of 2000 hours at 125 °C, supporting long-term stability in hot environments.
