Overview of PLF1A101MDL4 – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor (Radial Lead)
The PLF1A101MDL4 is a conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor in a radial lead can package, engineered for applications that require low ESR and high ripple current handling. It is designed for demanding environments with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C and a rated voltage of 10 V.
With a 100 µF capacitance, AEC-Q200 qualification, and compatibility with lead‑free flow soldering, this part targets automotive and other high-reliability power-management applications that demand stable performance under elevated temperature and ripple stress.
Key Features
- Electrical Performance — 100 µF capacitance at 10 V with ±20% tolerance, polarized design for DC applications.
- Low ESR — 25 mΩ equivalent series resistance specified at 100 kHz, supporting efficient high-frequency decoupling and power conditioning.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple current of 1.45 A at 120 Hz and 2.9 A at 100 kHz to handle pulsed and high-frequency loads.
- Thermal and Lifetime Characteristics — Rated for operation from -55°C to 105°C with a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C.
- Package and Mounting — Radial lead can package with 2.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L × D: 1.05 × 0.63 cm) for through‑hole mounts.
- Reliability & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant; compatible with lead‑free flow soldering conditions.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Power Electronics — Bulk and local decoupling in engine control units, body electronics or other automotive modules where AEC‑Q200 qualification and high ripple capability are required.
- Power Supply Filtering — Smoothing and ripple reduction on DC power rails that demand low ESR and high-frequency performance.
- Embedded Systems — Decoupling for power management circuits in compact, through‑hole assemblies that benefit from a radial can footprint.
Unique Advantages
- Low-loss, high-frequency operation: 25 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz and specified 2.9 A ripple current at 100 kHz enable effective high‑frequency decoupling and reduced power dissipation.
- Designed for high-temperature endurance: 2000 hours load life at 105°C provides predictable aging and stability in elevated-temperature environments.
- Automotive-grade qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification supports use in automotive systems requiring component-level reliability validation.
- Soldering process compatibility: Constructed to meet lead‑free flow soldering conditions for modern assembly processes.
- Compact through-hole form factor: Radial can with 2.5 mm lead spacing and small footprint simplifies layout in space-constrained boards while retaining robust capacitance.
