Overview of PCX1H270MCL1GS – 27 µF, 50 V Conductive Polymer SMD Capacitor (AEC-Q200)
The PCX1H270MCL1GS is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic chip capacitor in an SMD radial-can package designed for high-voltage, high-reliability applications. With a 27 µF capacitance at 50 V, low ESR and high ripple-current capability, it addresses power-filtering and decoupling needs in demanding electronic environments.
Engineered for operation from −55 °C to 125 °C and qualified to AEC-Q200, this capacitor is targeted at applications requiring long life at elevated temperatures and robust soldering compatibility with lead‑free reflow processes.
Key Features
- Capacitance & Voltage — 27 µF nominal capacitance with a rated voltage of 50 V and tolerance of ±20% (120 Hz, 20 °C).
- Conductive Polymer Dielectric — Solid electrolyte construction for stable performance with low equivalent series resistance.
- Low ESR & High Ripple Capacity — ESR specified at 35 mΩ (100 kHz) with ripple current ratings of 760 mA at 100 kHz and 380 mA at 120 Hz, supporting high-frequency and power applications.
- High Temperature Endurance — Long life: 3000 hours at 125 °C (endurance conditions per datasheet), suitable for elevated-ambient environments.
- Wide Operating Range — Rated for −55 °C to +125 °C for reliable performance across extreme temperature conditions.
- Surface-Mount Radial Can — Chip-type SMD (radial can) with compact dimensions (L 1.2 × D 0.8 cm) and recommended land pattern 8.3 × 8.3 mm for PCB mounting.
- Assembly & Compliance — Compatible with lead‑free reflow soldering (260 °C peak) and RoHS compliant; qualified to AEC‑Q200.
Typical Applications
- Automotive power electronics — Power-rail decoupling and filtering in modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high-temperature endurance are required.
- High-temperature control electronics — Boards and assemblies that must operate reliably up to 125 °C ambient.
- Compact SMD power subsystems — Surface-mount designs needing a small radial-can capacitor with low ESR and high ripple capability for power conversion and regulation.
Unique Advantages
- High-voltage capability: 50 V rating enables use on higher-voltage rails without up‑grading component form factor.
- Low-loss operation: 35 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces dissipative losses and supports efficient high-frequency filtering.
- High ripple tolerance: 760 mA (100 kHz) ripple current rating improves thermal handling and longevity under dynamic loads.
- Long high-temperature life: 3000 hours at 125 °C provides predictable endurance in elevated-temperature applications.
- AEC‑Q200 qualification: Design confidence for applications requiring industry-recognized reliability standards.
- Reflow-capable SMD form: Radial-can SMD package designed for lead‑free reflow (260 °C peak) to fit modern assembly flows.
