PLF0J471MCO6

The PLF0J471MCO6 is a radial lead conductive-polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor delivering 470 µF at 6.3 V in a compact can package. Designed for demanding environments, it combines low ESR and high ripple-current capability with a wide operating temperature range.

Targeted for automotive electronics and other industrial applications, this part provides long-term stability with a rated load life of 2000 hours at 105°C and AEC-Q200 qualification to support reliability-focused designs.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage: 470 µF rated capacitance at 6.3 V provides energy storage in a compact footprint for local buffering and smoothing tasks.
• Low ESR: Equivalent series resistance of 7 mΩ (measured at 100 kHz) supports low-loss operation and efficient power delivery.
• High Ripple Current: Rated ripple current of 2.6 A at 120 Hz and 5.2 A at 100 kHz enables robust AC performance under high-frequency and low-frequency loading.
• Thermal Endurance: Rated for operation from −55°C to +105°C with a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C, supporting sustained performance in elevated-temperature environments.
• AEC-Q200 & RoHS Compliance: AEC-Q200 qualification and RoHS compliance align the part with automotive-grade quality and environmental regulations.
• Radial Lead Package: Radial, can-style package with 3.5 mm lead spacing and a compact footprint (L: 9 × D: 8 mm) for through-hole assembly and flow soldering compatibility.
• Polarity & Tolerance: Polarized capacitor with capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% for design margining.

Typical Applications

• Automotive electronic control units: AEC-Q200 qualification and −55°C to +105°C rating make this capacitor suitable for vehicle electronics that require stable energy storage in harsh conditions.
• Power rail smoothing in embedded systems: Low ESR and high ripple-current ratings support voltage stabilization and transient handling on power rails.
• On-board power modules: Compact radial can form factor and high ripple capability enable localized bulk capacitance where board space is constrained.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple tolerance: Dual-frequency ripple ratings (120 Hz and 100 kHz) provide measurable performance data for both low- and high-frequency power applications.
• Low-loss operation: 7 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz minimizes power dissipation and thermal rise during high-current operation.
• Extended thermal life: 2000-hour load life at 105°C offers predictable aging characteristics for reliability planning.
• Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 status supports use in designs requiring industry-recognized component qualification.
• Compact through-hole package: Small L × D footprint and 3.5 mm lead spacing simplify retrofits and designs that prefer radial mounting.
• Regulatory compliance: RoHS conformity ensures compliance with common environmental requirements.
