PLF1A681MDO1

The PLF1A681MDO1 is a radial-lead conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor specified at 680 µF and 10 V. Engineered for low ESR and high ripple handling, it is aimed at power filtering and decoupling roles where compact size and thermal endurance are required.

This device combines a compact φ10 × 13 mm can with a wide operating range (−55°C to +105°C) and a rated load life of 2000 hours at 105°C, delivering predictable performance for demanding electronic power systems.

Key Features

• Capacitance & Voltage — Rated at 680 µF and 10 V with a capacitance tolerance of −20% to +20% (120 Hz, 20°C).
• Low ESR & High Ripple Capability — ESR of 7 mΩ measured at 20°C/100 kHz; low-frequency ripple current 3.05 A (120 Hz) and high-frequency ripple current 6.1 A (100 kHz).
• Electrical Loss — Tangent of loss angle (tanδ) 0.08 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz, supporting efficient AC ripple handling.
• Leakage Current — Specified leakage current of 1360 µA after rated voltage application at 20°C.
• Thermal Endurance — Operates from −55°C to +105°C with a rated lifetime of 2000 hours at 105°C.
• Package & Mounting — Radial lead can, size φ10 × 13L (10 mm diameter × 13 mm length), lead spacing 5 mm (±0.5 mm); supplied in bulk or bag packing (no terminal forming).
• Manufacturing & Reliability — AEC‑Q200 qualified and RoHS compliant; compatible with lead‑free flow soldering conditions as noted in the product specification.

Typical Applications

• Automotive Electronics — Suitable for automotive power modules and control units that require AEC‑Q200 qualification together with high ripple capability and wide temperature tolerance.
• DC‑DC Converters and Power Supplies — Low ESR and high-frequency ripple rating make it effective for output filtering and decoupling in switching regulator stages.
• Voltage Stabilization and Hold‑up — High capacitance in a compact radial can supports transient suppression and short-duration energy hold‑up.
• Industrial Control Systems — Robust temperature range and long rated life are suited to industrial electronics exposed to thermal stress and continuous operation.

Unique Advantages

• High ripple current handling: Rated for 3.05 A at 120 Hz and 6.1 A at 100 kHz, enabling reliable operation under heavy AC ripple conditions.
• Very low ESR: 7 mΩ at 100 kHz reduces power loss and improves regulator stability and transient response.
• Compact radial form factor: φ10 × 13 mm can with 5 mm lead spacing for space-constrained through‑hole layouts.
• Long thermal endurance: 2000 hours at 105°C provides design margin for demanding thermal environments.
• Automotive‑grade qualification: AEC‑Q200 listing supports use in designs targeting automotive or similarly demanding applications.
• RoHS compliant and lead‑free solder compatible: Conforms to environmental requirements and lead‑free assembly processes.
