PLE0G821MDO1

The PLE0G821MDO1 is a Nichicon radial lead conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor rated at 820 µF and 4 V. It combines ultra-low ESR and high ripple current capability in a compact radial can package for general-purpose power filtering and decoupling applications.

Designed for through-hole mounting with a 5 mm lead spacing and a small footprint (L: 1.3 × D: 1.0 cm), this capacitor delivers stable performance across a wide temperature range from −55 °C to +105 °C and meets RoHS requirements.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — 820 µF nominal capacitance at a rated voltage of 4 V, suitable for low-voltage power rails and bulk decoupling.
• Ultra-low ESR — ESR of 5 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, minimizing losses and improving efficiency in high-frequency circuits.
• High Ripple Current — Handles 3.5 A at 120 Hz and 7 A at 100 kHz, supporting demanding ripple conditions in power supplies and converters.
• Thermal and Endurance Performance — Load life specified at 2000 hours at 105 °C; designed to meet endurance and damp-heat steady-state criteria from the datasheet.
• Radial Through-Hole Package — Radial can with 5 mm lead spacing and lead-free flow soldering compatibility for standard assembly processes.
• Operating Temperature — Wide operating range from −55 °C to +105 °C for reliable operation across varied environments.
• RoHS Compliance — Compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Filtering — Bulk and output filtering on low-voltage power rails where low ESR improves ripple attenuation and efficiency.
• Switching Regulators — Output decoupling for DC–DC converters that require high ripple-current handling and low impedance at high frequency.
• Embedded and Industrial Electronics — General-purpose smoothing and energy storage in compact through-hole designs operating across −55 °C to +105 °C.

Unique Advantages

• Efficient High-Frequency Performance: The 5 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces heat generation and losses in high-frequency circuits.
• Robust Ripple Handling: High ripple current ratings (7 A at 100 kHz, 3.5 A at 120 Hz) support sustained dynamic loads and improve system stability.
• Compact Through-Hole Form Factor: Small radial can (L: 1.3 × D: 1.0 cm) with 5 mm lead spacing fits tight layouts while retaining through-hole reliability.
• High-Temperature Endurance: Specified load life of 2000 hours at 105 °C for applications that require sustained elevated-temperature operation.
• Assembly-Friendly: Designed to correspond to lead-free flow soldering conditions for modern manufacturing processes.
• Regulatory Compliance: RoHS-compliant construction supports regulatory requirements for environmental substances.
