PLS0E821MDO1

The PLS0E821MDO1 is a radial-lead conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose electronic applications. It offers a combination of ultra-low ESR and high ripple-current capability in a compact radial can package, with a rated capacitance of 820 µF at 2.5 V.

Engineered for long life, this capacitor features a 5000-hour load life at 105°C and is RoHS compliant. Its electrical and mechanical characteristics make it suitable where low impedance and robust ripple handling at low voltage are required.

Key Features

• Capacitance and Voltage: 820 µF rated capacitance at 2.5 V provides substantial energy storage for low-voltage systems.
• Ultra-low ESR: 7 mΩ ESR measured at 100 kHz, supporting efficient high-frequency decoupling and reduced power loss.
• High ripple current: Rated ripple current of 2.9 A at 120 Hz and 5.8 A at 100 kHz enables reliable operation under significant AC stress.
• Long life at elevated temperature: Load life of 5000 hours at 105°C for extended durability in thermal environments.
• Temperature range: Operation from −55°C to +105°C to accommodate a broad environmental span.
• Radial lead package: Radial can with 3.5 mm lead spacing and compact dimensions (L: 1.2 × D: 0.8 cm), compatible with through-hole assemblies and wave/flow soldering conditions.
• Polarized design: Polar capacitor construction for correct orientation in DC circuits; capacitance tolerance ±20%.
• Regulatory compliance: Compliant with the RoHS directive (2011/65/EU, (EU)2015/863).

Typical Applications

• Low-voltage power rails: Bulk decoupling and smoothing for 2.5 V rails where high capacitance and low ESR reduce voltage ripple.
• Power supply filtering: Post-regulator filtering and bulk energy storage benefiting from high ripple-current capability and low impedance at 100 kHz.
• General-purpose electronics: Through-hole assemblies requiring compact radial electrolytics with long life at elevated temperatures.

Unique Advantages

• Lower power loss: Ultra-low ESR (7 mΩ at 100 kHz) minimizes dissipation in high-frequency applications, improving efficiency.
• Improved ripple handling: High ripple-current ratings (2.9 A at 120 Hz, 5.8 A at 100 kHz) support demanding AC stress without rapid degradation.
• Compact through-hole form: Radial can and 3.5 mm lead spacing deliver high capacitance in a small footprint for space-constrained PCB layouts.
• Extended thermal endurance: 5000-hour load life at 105°C provides stronger reliability margins for designs exposed to elevated temperatures.
• RoHS compliant: Meets applicable RoHS directives for use in regulated markets.
