Overview of PLF1D560MCL2 – Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Electrolytic Capacitor (56 µF, 20 V)
The PLF1D560MCL2 is a radial-lead conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor designed for low impedance and high ripple-current performance in high-frequency circuits. It delivers 56 µF at 20 V with polarized construction and a compact radial can package suited to space-constrained assemblies.
Built for demanding environments, the capacitor is AEC-Q200 qualified, RoHS compliant, and specified for operation from -55 °C to +105 °C with a rated load life of 2000 hours at 105 °C. Note: this product is scheduled for discontinuation and is not recommended for new designs.
Key Features
- Core Technology — Conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolyte for inherently low ESR and stable high-frequency performance.
- Capacitance & Voltage — 56 µF rated capacitance at 20 V with ±20% tolerance.
- Low ESR — ESR of 40 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, supporting low-impedance power rails.
- High Ripple Current — Rated ripple handling of 1.2 A at 120 Hz and 2.4 A at 100 kHz for demanding AC stress conditions.
- Reliability & Endurance — Load life specified as 2000 hours at 105 °C; meets endurance and damp-heat criteria per the datasheet.
- Qualification & Compliance — AEC-Q200 qualified and compliant with RoHS (2011/65/EU and (EU) 2015/863) requirements.
- Package & Mounting — Radial lead (can) package with 5 mm lead spacing and compact footprint (approx. 0.8 × 1.0 cm); polarized component suited to through-hole assemblies.
- Soldering Compatibility — Radial lead type compatible with lead-free flow soldering; soldering heat resistance specified (preheat 150–200 °C, peak 265 °C for ≤10 s) per the datasheet.
Typical Applications
- Automotive Electronics — For automotive modules that require AEC-Q200 qualification and components capable of operating across wide temperature ranges.
- High-Frequency Power Rails — Low ESR and specified performance at 100 kHz make it suitable for high-frequency decoupling and smoothing tasks.
- Power Management — Use in power-supply filtering where high ripple current capability and long-life at elevated temperatures are required.
Unique Advantages
- Low Impedance at High Frequency: 40 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz delivers reduced voltage drop and improved stability on high-frequency rails.
- High Ripple Handling: 2.4 A at 100 kHz and 1.2 A at 120 Hz support robust AC stress performance in power circuits.
- Automotive-Grade Qualification: AEC-Q200 qualification provides confidence for use in applications requiring industry-recognized reliability testing.
- Wide Temperature & Proven Endurance: -55 °C to +105 °C operating range with 2000-hour life at 105 °C for sustained performance in elevated-temperature environments.
- Compact Radial Package: Small can and 5 mm lead spacing allow easy through-hole placement where board space is limited.
- RoHS Compliant: Conforms to current RoHS directives for regulatory compatibility.
