PLF0J331MDL4

The PLF0J331MDL4 is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can. It delivers low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple-current capability in a compact radial-leaded package.

Designed for applications that require robust ripple handling and elevated-temperature endurance, the PLF0J331MDL4 is positioned for automotive and other electronics where long life at higher temperatures and industry qualification matter.

Key Features

• Electrical Performance — 330 µF capacitance at a rated voltage of 6.3 V with ±20% tolerance; ESR specified at 24 mΩ (100 kHz, 20°C) to support low-loss operation.
• High Ripple Capability — Rated ripple currents of 1.65 A at 120 Hz and 3.3 A at 100 kHz enable effective filtering and smoothing under high AC stress.
• Temperature and Lifetime — Operating temperature range of −55°C to +105°C with a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C, providing predictable endurance in elevated-temperature environments.
• Automotive Qualification — AEC-Q200 qualified, supporting use in automotive electronics where that qualification is required.
• Package and Mounting — Radial lead (can) package with 2.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.05 × D: 0.63 cm) for through-hole assembly.
• Soldering and Assembly — Compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions as specified for the series.
• Regulatory Compliance — Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suitable for automotive systems where AEC-Q200 qualification and elevated-temperature endurance are required.
• Power Supply Filtering — Low ESR and high ripple-current ratings make this capacitor well suited for bulk smoothing and decoupling in power circuits.
• High-Frequency Switching Circuits — Specified ESR at 100 kHz and high-frequency ripple current rating support use in switching regulator output stages and related circuits.

Unique Advantages

• Low ESR, High Ripple Handling: 24 mΩ ESR (100 kHz) and up to 3.3 A ripple at 100 kHz reduce thermal stress and improve filtering performance.
• Elevated-Temperature Endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C provides stable capacitance and ESR retention for demanding thermal environments.
• Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification supports deployment in automotive designs that require validated component reliability.
• Compact Radial Package: Small can size (1.05 × 0.63 cm) with 2.5 mm lead spacing simplifies through-hole layout in space-constrained assemblies.
• Lead-Free Assembly Ready: Compatibility with lead-free flow soldering conditions and RoHS compliance ease integration into modern manufacturing processes.
