Overview of PLG0G122MCO1 – Radial Lead Conductive Polymer Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

The PLG0G122MCO1 is a radial-lead conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering higher capacitance in a compact can-style package. It delivers low ESR and high ripple-current capability for general-purpose electronic applications.

Key characteristics include 1.2 mF capacitance at 4 V, an operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C, and a specified load life of 2000 hours at 105°C. This part is RoHS compliant and supports lead-free flow soldering conditions. Note: this product is scheduled for discontinuation and is not recommended for new designs.

Key Features

  • Capacitance & Voltage — 1.2 mF rated capacitance at 4 V provides substantial charge storage in a small footprint.
  • Low ESR — ESR of 9 mΩ measured at 100 kHz, enabling efficient high-frequency performance.
  • High Ripple-Current Capability — Rated ripple currents of 2.95 A at 120 Hz and 5.9 A at 100 kHz support demanding AC and switching conditions.
  • Thermal Performance & Lifetime — Rated for -55°C to +105°C and a load life of 2000 hours at 105°C.
  • Radial Lead Package — Compact radial, can-style package (L: 9 × D: 8 mm) with 3.5 mm lead spacing for through-hole assembly.
  • Polarized with Standard Tolerance — Polarized capacitor with tolerance of -20% to +20% (±20%).
  • Manufacturing Compatibility — Compatible with lead-free flow soldering conditions and compliant to the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

  • General-purpose power filtering — Use where a polarized, radial-lead capacitor with high capacitance and low ESR is required for smoothing and filtering.
  • Switching-power support — Suited for circuits that benefit from high ripple-current handling and low-impedance behavior at high frequency.
  • Board-level through-hole assemblies — Radial lead format and 3.5 mm lead spacing simplify placement in through-hole PCBs and retrofit tasks.

Unique Advantages

  • High energy density in a compact package: 1.2 mF in a 9 × 8 mm can provides significant capacitance where board space is limited.
  • Low impedance at high frequency: 9 mΩ ESR at 100 kHz reduces voltage ripple and improves stability in high-speed circuits.
  • Robust ripple handling: High ripple-current ratings at both 120 Hz and 100 kHz support both low- and high-frequency applications.
  • Extended thermal endurance: Rated to operate from -55°C to +105°C with a specified 2000-hour life at 105°C for sustained elevated-temperature use.
  • Assembly-friendly form factor: Radial lead, can package with lead-free flow soldering compatibility for standard through-hole processes.
  • Regulatory compliance: RoHS compliant per provided directives for environmental and material requirements.

Why Choose PLG0G122MCO1?

PLG0G122MCO1 is positioned for engineers and procurement teams needing a compact, high-capacitance, low-ESR radial electrolytic capacitor for general-purpose power applications and board-level through-hole assemblies. Its combination of high ripple-current capability and elevated temperature life make it suitable for sustained operation in thermally demanding environments.

Because this product is scheduled to be discontinued and is not recommended for new designs, it is especially relevant for maintenance, repair, or production continuity where matching an existing BOM or replacement of legacy parts is required.
